TRAVEL

in the direction you want to travel.
The farther you move the rocker from the neutral

REVERSING BUTTON

in close quarters, the truck will move in the direction of
the forks until the button is released.
Be careful. The reversing button cannot prevent all
injuries.
PLUGGING

While the truck is moving, in either direction, move either
Forward/Reverse rocker through neutral to the opposite
direction of travel.
Plugging will not hurt your truck.
