Know the Hazards

Steering & Travel 18

POWER UNIT SWING
Be careful turning while traveling forks first. The power

unit will swing wide in the opposite direction. Make

sure you have clearance, and watch out for people in

the area.

SLOW DOWN FOR SPILLS OR WET FLOORS
Powder or liquid spills can cause slippery floors. Slow

down or you could lose control of steering and braking.

Be careful and allow for a longer stopping distance.
Don't run over objects on the floor.
