WARNING
Slack chains mean rail or carriage hang-up. Raise the up-
right before you move. If the upright malfunctions in any
way or becomes stuck in a raised position, operate the lift
control to eliminate any slack chains. Have the truck xed
by a trained and authorized mechanic. DO NOT go under
a raised upright or forks to attempt repairs.
Traveling with a Load
Travel with load or carriage as low as possible. Never travel with the load
or
carriage raised (elevated) in a high position, except during stacking.
Observe all trac regulations and watch for other trac, pedestrians,
and safe clearances. Always look in the direction of travel. Keep a clear
view of the path of travel, and when the load blocks your visibility, travel
with the load trailing.
Avoid sudden movements when carrying a load—start, stop, travel,
steer, and brake smoothly. Steer clear of bumps, holes, and loose
materials or debris on the ground. Lift and tilt slowly and smoothly. Go
slowly when turning.
Use special care when handling and traveling with long, high, or wide
loads—to avoid losing the load, striking bystanders or obstructions, or
tipping the truck.
