Know the Hazards
HYDRAULIC OPERATIONS CAN AFFECT STABILITY
Capacities shown on your capacity plate are for loads 
that are centered and level.  Be extra careful when 
tilting a load. (This also applies to accessories or 
attachments your truck may have such as sideshift, 
carton clamp, push-pull, etc.)
For example: Pull the Raise/Lower lever toward 
you to raise the forks, as shown in the bottom 
symbol. Push the lever away from you to lower 
the forks.
LIFT AND TILT INTERLOCK
Lift and tilt interlock will limit raise if the mast is tilted  
forward beyond 2º. To continue raising, return the mast 
to vertical.
When the forks are elevated, mast forward tilt is limited.
Note: 
You must use full engine speed (with the inching/
brake pedal applied) to obtain maximum performance 
for any hydraulic operation.

Accessory levers (optional)
HYDRAULIC LEVER OPERATION
Pull a lever toward you, away from the mast, and you'll 
get the action shown in the bottom symbol on the 
lever. Push the lever away from you, toward the mast, 
and you'll get the opposite action shown in the upper 
symbol.
 
The farther you move the lever from neutral, the faster  
the action will be.
OPTIONAL ARMREST
 
Adjust the armrest so that you can fully operate the 
hydraulic levers.
 
Lift the Raise/Lower lever to pull up or 
push down the armrest. 
Lift the Forward/Back lever to slide the 
armrest forward or backward. 
Make certain the armrest locks into place. 
Note: 
Do not make any adjustments while operating 
the truck.
HORN
Your armrest is equipped with a horn button. Use it to 
warn pedestrians and other drivers.
Use your horn when you leave an aisle or come to a 
crosswalk or intersection.
