To raise and lower
The following are generally valid for the lifting and lowering procedure:
The red operating button of the EMERGENCY STOP pushbutton must be pulled
upwards
Lifting and lowering movements are initiated by pressing the pushbuttons on the
handle head.
There are four buttons located on the two sides of the handle. Each side
of the control has one button for raising the forks and one button for lowering
the forks. Always make sure when lifting that the load is within the capacity
rating of your truck and that the load has been stacked safely on the pallet.
Also, make sure that there is no one standing near the forks when raising or
lowering. It is also important to make sure that the length of the forks
corresponds to the opening in the bottom of the pallet. The load rollers must
be placed between boards so when you raise the forks, the pallet will not be
broken or damaged. Always make sure when entering the pallet that the forks
are in the fully lowered position. Be careful when lifting pallets that are too
short or too long for the truck
Warning
It is forbidden to climb or reach into any moving parts of the lifting truck-e.g. the
lifting frame, thrust units, lifting mechanisms etc.
