5 Operation
1. In the case of Q-Safe, check that the orange
indicator rod is out.
In the case of ECPUP, check that the red hook is in
the open position.
In the case of engcon's other quick hitches, check
that the blue indicator rod is out. Indicator rod
location may vary depending on the tiltrotator model.
2. Move the quick hitch towards the tool.
If EC-Oil is fitted, make sure the tool is located so

forks, the quick hitch locking pins must be turned
away from the forklift tines.

quick hitch.
If fitted, Q-Safe activates the stick’s sound and light
signals.
