Section 3. Common Truck
Steering System
The steering handwheel operates a
steering control valve that directs the oil
flow to the steering cylinder connected to
the steer axle. The steering control valve
can also act as a pump to provide manual
steering if the hydraulic pump stops.
Horn Button
The horn button is located in the center hub of the steering
handwheel.
Service Brake
Your truck has a manual service brake system with a single pedal
that actuates the master cylinder.
Direction Control Lever
This lever is typically on the left side
of the steering column.
Never operate your lift truck
with the service or parking
brakes not working correctly.
Hydraulic Controls
These trucks are equipped with an Operator’s Presence
System. In order for any of the Hydraulic Controls to
function, the key switch must be turned ON and the
operator must be seated in the seat.
