This section gives detailed operating instructions for
the CB33 lift truck. The instructions are divided into the
various phases of operations, such as operating lift,

2-2. OPERATING PRECAUTIONS.
WARNING: Improper operation of the lift truck may
result in operator injury, or load and/or lift
truck damage. Observe the following
precautions when operating the CB33 lift
truck.
The following safety precautions must be adhered to
at all times.
• Do not operate this truck unless you have been
trained and authorized to do so.
• All warnings and instructions must be read and
understood before using the equipment.
• Equipment must not be altered in any way.
• Equipment must be inspected by a qualified person
on a regular basis.
• Do not exceed the rated capacity. Overloading may
result in damage to the hydraulic system and struc-
tural components.
• Be certain that the lifting mechanism is operating
smoothly throughout its entire height, both empty
and loaded.
• Be sure that mast is vertical - do not operate on a
slope.
• Be sure the truck has a firm and level footing.
• Avoid overhead wires and obstructions.
• Check for obstructions when raising or lowering the
lift carriage.
• Do not handle unstable or loosely stacked loads.
Use special care when handling long, high, or wide
loads to avoid tipping, loss of load, or striking
bystanders.
• Center and carry the load as far back as possible
toward the lift carriage back rest. The center-of-grav-
ity of the load must not exceed the load center listed
on the nameplate. See Figure 2-1 for load center
limitations.
• Pick up loads on both forks. Do not pick up on only
one fork.
• When traveling, always lower the load as far as pos-
sible.
