Raising the Load
WaRNING! Tip Hazard. Do not lift loads that exceed
specifications in the Load Range and Lift Capacity
Chart. Inspect every load before attempting to lift.
Make certain the loads are properly bound and will not
fall apart while lifting and transporting.
Position the forklift directly and squarely in front of 1.
the load.
Lower the boom by pushing the front joystick 2.
forward until the forks are at the necessary level to
engage the load.
Level the forks by depressing and holding the 3.
right button on the front joystick either up or
down (if equipped).
Manually adjust the width of the forks 4.
to accommodate the load, if necessary.
WaRNING! Crush Hazard. Do not transport
stacked loads. Tilt the forks back by depressing
the left button down on the front joystick.
Pull the front joystick back to lift the load only 5.
enough to clear obstacles. Keep the top of the
load below eye level.
Retract the boom by moving the front joystick 6.
to the left, holding until a safe traveling position
is accomplished. The load is now ready to
transport.
Note: If you cannot see over the load, transport the
load using reverse.
Transporting the Load
always observe the path ahead and be sure 1.
there is adequate clearance to transport the load
and/or the forklift.
Be constantly aware of the area overhead and 2.
make sure, before entering an area with limited
overhead, that the forklift will fit. DaNGER!
Electrocution Hazard. stay clear of power
lines.
Keep the load as close to the ground as possible 3.
when moving and avoid sudden stops. approach
turns and uneven and/or slippery surfaces
very slowly. Use a flagman, sound horn and
drive slowly in congested areas. WaRNING!
Crush Hazard. Never attempt to drive across
(parallel to) an excessively steep incline,
regardless of circumstances.
Inclines and Unstable surfaces
Driving on inclines or unstable surfaces is not
recommended, but sometimes unavoidable. If driving
on an incline cannot be avoided, level the forklift with
the rear joystick sway function as follows:
Pull lever to the left to sway the forklift carriage to 1.
the left.
Push the lever to the right to sway the forklift 2.
carriage to the right.
a. If transporting a load, approach the incline with
the forks pointed uphill. (forks should also be
pointed uphill when backing down an incline
with a load.)
b. If empty, approach the incline with the forks
pointed downhill. WaRNING! Tip Hazard. Do not
approach an incline at an angle. Drive straight
up or straight down an incline. Drive forward to
go down an incline and use reverse to go up an
incline.
Landing the Load
Keep the load low and position the forklift as close 1.
to the landing point as possible. Tilt the machine
to level by using the rear joystick before raising the
load. WaRNING! Crush Hazard. Clear the area.
Pull back on the boom control joystick to raise the 2.
load to the proper height, and move the control to
the right to extend as needed.
Carefully lower the load to the landing area by 3.
using the boom control joystick to extend, retract,
lower, lift, tilt forward, and/or backward as needed
until the load rests firmly in the landing area.
On traversing forklifts, the carriage forward and
carriage back feature on the rear joystick may also
be used. Position the forks so that they are not
contacting the load or the landing area.
Due to variation in worksite terrain, removing the 4.
forks from under the load may require the use of
all boom control joystick features. On Traversing
forklifts, the carriage back feature can also be used.
Retract boom and lower forks before backing away. 5.
