If your truck requires any repair, attach a “DO
NOT OPERATE” or similar warning tag to the
steering wheel or other control, remove the key
from the starter switch, and contact your Cat
lift truck dealer.
A daily (Pre-Start) inspection is the key to
safety. At the beginning of each shift, check
your lift truck to make sure it is in safe operat-
ing condition.
Always inspect your truck under the following
conditions.

Inspection Precautions
If it is necessary to make an inspection
while the engine is running, ALWAYS
USE TWO WORKERS—one, the opera-
tor, at the controls and the other check-
ing within visual contact of the operator.
– Avoid mixing lubricants. In some cases
different brands of lubricants are not
compatible with each other and deteri-
orate when mixed. It is best to stick
with the same brand at successive serv-
ice intervals.
– Before refilling, clean filler holes. After
filling, clean up spills.
– Lift truck level
– Mast in vertical position
– Fork tips on ground
– Engine stopped
– Control levers in neutral
– Wheels blocked
