Transmission Inching Control Pedal
Inching Control Pedal - Pushing down the
inching pedal, modulates the hydraulic pressure
to the clutch packs, permitting disc slippage.
Further pushing the pedal completely relieves clutch
pack pressure and applies the service brakes to stop and
hold the lift truck.
In order to use the inching function, "Inching Activation"
must remain selected on the "T/M option function" of the
instrument panel display. (Operation Section - Operator
Seat and Various Instruments/Devices - Menu - Vehicle
- Option Setting 1 Electronic T/M option).
NOTE: The purpose of the inching control pedal is to
provide precise inching control at slow travel
speed, with high engine rpm. This is used for
fast hydraulic lift during load approach, pickup or
positioning.
Excessive use of the inching pedal will cause the clutch
to overheat and may result in damage.
If the vehicle is driven with one's foot habitually resting on
the inching pedal, the vehicle will be driven in the inching
condition, resulting in damage due to the clutch
overheating.
If the inching pedal is used as a brake pedal,
damage/overheating may occur due to frequent friction of
clutch. In addition, since the engine brake does not
operate at the time of braking, the regular brake may be
damaged due to the increased load on the regular brake.
Service Brake Pedal
Push DOWN on the brake pedal to slow or stop
the lift truck.
RELEASE the brake pedal to allow the lift truck
to move.
Accelerator Pedal
Push DOWN on the pedal to increase engine
rpm (speed).
RELEASE the pedal to decrease engine rpm
(speed).
