WARNING: Never disengage both the rotation latch and the tilt latch at the
same time.
This lifter is not designed for rotation and tilt functions to be used at the same time. Disengaging
the rotation and tilt latches simultaneously could cause uncontrolled and unpredictable load
movement, potentially resulting in load damage or injury to the operator.
WARNING: Make sure load is positioned correctly on lifter (see T
O
A
PPLY
);
unbalanced loads may rotate unexpectedly when latch is
disengaged.
Remember that the load is longer in its diagonal dimensions than in its side
dimensions. Make sure there is sufficient clearance for the load to rotate
without contacting the operator or any nearby objects. Maintain a firm grip
on the control handle to keep the load under control at all times. Pull the
rotation release lever to disengage the rotation latch, and rotate the load to
the desired position. To stop the load’s motion automatically at each
quarter turn, simply let go of the rotation release lever immediately after
initiating the rotation, so that the rotation latch engages at the next stop.
Whenever rotation is not required, keep the rotation latch engaged, to
prevent accidental damage to the load and possible injury to the operator.
