OPERATION
Turn the steering wheel with both hands. When
handling loads, stop the truck and move the tilt
and lift control levers with the right hand.
Turning with the forks elevated, with or with-
out a load, can cause a tipover.
A lift truck is different from most other vehi-
cles because it is steered by the rear wheels.
This causes an exaggerated tail swing.
Turning at high speeds, with or without a load,
can also cause a tipover.
Be aware of tail swing distance. Be sure the tail
swing area is clear, before turning, to avoid
injury to pedestrians.
1. When working in close quarters, drive
more slowly when making turns.
2. Start the turn as close to the inside corner
as the tail swing will permit.
