In normal operation your lift truck will drive in
a creep mode when the direction lever is placed
in the forward or reverse position at engine
idling (not depressing the accelerator pedal). If
the operator then leaves the operator’s seat, the
operator presence switch of the seat is activated
to shift the forward or reverse position into the
neutral position electrically (the lever itself
remains in the forward or reverse position), and
cut off the engine output to stop the lift truck.
In this case, the parking brake does not syn-
chronize with the driving interlock and is not
automatically applied the moment the interlock
is activated.
Depending on the condition of the road (grade,
for example), therefore, the lift truck may be
accelerated, instead of being stopped.
◆◆
Driving Interlock System
1. Prior to operating the lift truck, be sure
to check the driving interlock for func-
tion.
2. While driving the lift truck, if you lift
your hips above the seat for over 2 sec-
onds, the driving interlock system will
be activated, the same as in case of
engine idling.
Always drive the lift truck correctly
with safety in mind.
3. To restore the lift truck to its normal
driving condition, sit properly in the
operator's seat and depress the brake
pedal to hold the lift truck. Then, return
the direction lever to the neutral posi-
tion and then shift it back into the for-
ward or reverse position.
4. When replacing the operator's seat, be
sure to use Cat lift truck genuine seat
with operator presence switch.
This switch is built in the seat.
