CLARK
welcomes
you to the
growing group
of
professionals
who
own,
operate,
and
maintain CLARK lift trucks.
We
take pride
in the
long
tradition
of
quality products
and
superior value that
the
CLARK name
represents.
This
manual
will
familiarize
you
with safety, operating,
and
maintenance information about your
new
lift
truck.
It has
been specially
prepared
to
help
you use and
maintain your CLARK
lift
truck
in a
safe
and
correct
manner.
Your CLARK
lift
truck
has
been designed
and
built
to be as
safe
and
efficient
as
today's technology
can
make
it. As
manufactured,
it
meets
all the
applicable mandatory requirements
of
ANSI B56.1
-1988
Safety
Standard
for
Powered Industrial Trucks. Each truck
is
also furnished
with
equipment
to
help
you
operate
safely;
e.g.,
parking brake
and
horn
as
standard equipment.
Safe,
productive operation
of a
lift
truck requires both skill
and
knowl-
edge
on the
part
of the
operator.
The
operator must know, understand,
and
practice
the
safety
rules
and
safe
driving
and
load handling
techniques
described
in
this manual.
To
develop
the
skill required,
the
operator
must become familiar with
the
construction
and
features
of the
lift
truck
and how
they function.
The
operator must understand
its
capabilities
and
limitations,
and see
that
it is
kept
in a
safe condition.
Routine Servicing
and
Maintenance
Regular maintenance
and
care
of
your
lift
truck
is not
only important
for
economy
and
utilization reasons;
it is
essential
for
your
safety.
A
faulty
lift
truck
is a
potential source
of
danger
to the
operator,
and to
other
personnel working near
it. As
with
all
quality equipment, keep your
lift
truck
in
good operating condition
by
following
the
recommended sched-
ule of
maintenance.
