Operation
Caution
Release the key immediately once the motor starts. If the
motor does not start, DO NOT crank the starter motor con-
tinuously for more than 15 seconds. Failure to release the
key after the motor has started or continuous cranking can
damage the starter motor.
3. Connect one end of the negative (-) jumper cable to the
negative (-) post of the charged battery.
4. Make the final jumper cable connection to the stalled
forklift ground at the furthest point from the battery.
5. Start the forklift. Refer to the Starting Forklift section in
this manual.
Steering Modes
Forklift Travel
Warning
Never use crab or four wheel (4W) steering for
traveling at high speeds. Use only two wheel
(2W) steering for higher speed travel and slow
the forklift before turning. Rapid turning
using crab, four wheel (4W), or the optional
two wheel rear (2WR) steering could cause tip over, which
could result in death, serious injury, or property damage.
Check the turning radius around the forklift before making
a turn, especially if using four wheel (4W) steering or
two wheel rear (2WR) steering, which provide a tighter
turning radius. Look over your shoulder in the direction
of the turn when backing. Failure to remain aware of your
turning radius area could result in death, serious injury, or
equipment damage.
Caution
DO NOT change steering modes until the forklift slows or
comes to a complete stop. Align all four (4) wheels “straight-
ahead”, or perpendicular to the axle, before changing
The forklift includes three STANDARD modes of steering;
Crab, Two Wheel (2W), and Four Wheel (4W) Steering. Use the
Steering Select switch located on the dash panel to change
steering modes.
Crab steering allows all four (4) wheels to turn
in the same direction as the steering wheel,
allowing the forklift to move “sideways”. Crab
steering is useful in a congested work site to
line up to a loading location.
Crab Steering
Two wheel (2W) steering allows the front
wheels to turn in the same direction as the
steering wheel. The rear wheels remain in
a fixed forward position. Two wheel (2W)
steering is useful for traveling at higher speeds.
Two Wheel Front Steering (2W)
Four wheel (4W) steering allows the front
wheels to turn in the same direction and the
rear wheels to turn in the opposite direction of
the steering wheel. The rear wheels follow the
front wheel path. Four wheel (4W) steering is
useful for a short turning radius and in muddy
or sandy conditions.
Four Wheel Steering (4W)
Figure 63. Maximum
Fork Sweep
Warning
Allow for adequate clearance between the
attachment and other objects when turning.
The attachment extends beyond the front of
the forklift. The operator must be aware of
the maximum sweep of any attachment being
used, when turning, to avoid hitting person-
nel and other objects in the area to prevent death, serious
injury, or property damage.
NOTE: If the engine fails to start on the first try, wait until the
engine and starter come to a complete stop before cranking
the engine again.
6. After the engine starts, allow the engine to idle for
approximately 60 seconds.
7. Remove the jumper cables in reverse order of their
connection (i.e. negative cable ground connection first,
etc).
steering mode. Changing steering modes without aligning
all four (4) wheels may result in equipment damage.
