5.1 Hand wheel
Hand wheel is operated in normal way, that is to say,
when turning the hand wheel right, the truck will turn right.
When turning the hand wheel left, the truck will turn left. The
rear wheels of the forklift truck are steering wheels, which
make the tail section of the truck swing out when turning. The
turning method can be mastered easily through practice.
5.2 Cycloid gear type powered steering unit
The powered steering unit (Fig5.2) can transmit the pressure oil from the flow divider
by pipes to the steering cylinder in terms of the rotating angle of the handwheel. The
engine stops running, the oil pump will not work, in this case a man-powered steering
should be adopted.
