5.1
Before using the truck you must read and understand the
safety instructions in section 1.the truck should only be
operated by those persons who have been trained in its use.
5.2
the operator must be physically capable of pushing or pulling
the load and must also be capable of stopping a rolling load.
5.3
Before lifting any load the operator should check that the pallet
is the correct width and length for the truck and that the pallet
itself is not damaged.
5.4
the operator should ensure that the load on the pallet is safe
to move. If the load appears to be loosely stacked, unevenly
distributed, too high or too wide it should be repacked safely
before moving. Also check that the weight of the load is within
the capacity of the truck
5.5
lowering the truck
.
( See fig.2 - l )
Before inserting the truck
into the pallet ensure that the truck forks are in their lowest
position by pulling the operating lever into the upper position
and holding it there until the truck has settled down to the
lowest level.
5.6
Drive position. ( See fig.2 - D )
the lever can now be
released and will return to the middle drive position.
5.7
Push the truck into the pallet ensuring that it is fully inserted. If
the pallet is shorter than the forks the load should be placed at
the centre point of the length of the forks.
5.8
raising a load. ( See fig.2 -r )
to lift the load push the
operating lever to its lowest position where it will latch. Pump
the handle up and down to lift the load from the floor. When
the forks reach their maximum height the lifting action will stop
even if you continue to pump the handle.
5.9
Before you move off, return the operating lever to its neutral
position.
5.10
due care should be taken when manoeuvring a load to ensure
that no collision takes place with any objects or people.
5.11
the faster the truck is moved the more difficult it will be to
stop, proceed at a slow and even pace.
5.12
Bring the truck to a stop where required and lower the load to
the floor by pulling the operating lever to its highest position
and holding it there until the load has settled to the floor.
5.13
It is not recommended that the load is lowered whilst the truck
is still moving as a sudden stop may dislodge the load causing
possible damage to property and/or people.
4.4
If the truck descends whilst pumping in the
Drive
position, turn
the adjusting nut counter clockwise until the truck does not
lower.
4.5
If the truck does not descend when the control lever is held in
the highest position turn the nut clockwise until lowering is
acheived. now check the drive position as described in
sections 4.2 and 4.3.
4.6
If the truck does not raise while pumping with the control lever
in the lowest position turn the adjusting nut counter clockwise
until raising is achieved, then check that the other two control
lever positions still function correctly.
6.1
the oil level should be checked every six months. the system
contains 0.3ltr. of hydraulic oil which should conform to
Iso VG32. the viscosity should be 32cst at 40ºc . ( see oil
level / filler screw ‘X’ in fig.2 ) sealey hydraulic oil is ideal.
6.2
to purge air from the system hold the operating lever in the
lowering position until the truck has descended to its lowest
level then pump the handle up and down 8 to 10 times.
6.3
Apply a long life grease to all bearings and shafts once a month.
