should
read
“
Disc
/
Test
”
and
the
drive
nuts
on
the
jack
screws
should
be
in
the
forward
position
against
their
re
-
spective
stops
.
The
racking
mechanism
is
accurately
leveled
and
checked
at
the
factory
and
should
need
no
adjustment
.
the
track
roller
blocking
interlocks
(
2
)
are
in
their
depressed
position
and
that
the
docking
interlock
bars
(
1
)
are
retracted
by
moving
handles
(
3
)
towards
the
masts
.
Raise
the
load
by
turning
the
winch
handle
clockwise
.
If
the
cable
has
been
slack
,
guide
it
so
that
it
winds
evenly
on
the
drum
until
it
starts
to
tighten
under
load
.
As
the
load
is
lifted
,
there
will
be
clicking
noise
due
to
the
winch
pawl
.
If
the
noise
stops
,
maintain
grip
on
the
handle
and
lower
the
load
to
the
floor
.
Investigate
why
the
pawl
is
not
engaging
and
make
repairs
before
attempting
to
lift
the
load
any
further
.
Raise
the
load
to
the
required
height
and
proceed
as
instructed
earlier
in
attaching
the
lift
truck
to
the
equipment
.
Check
the
circuit
breaker
to
ensure
that
it
is
in
the
“
OPEN
”
and
“
DISCHARGED
”
position
.
Attach
the
lift
truck
to
the
equipment
,
after
it
has
been
prepared
for
docking
,
by
adjusting
the
height
of
the
carriage
until
the
docking
hooks
at
the
ends
of
the
arms
are
slightly
higher
than
the
rail
surface
in
the
equipment
.
When
this
is
done
,
position
the
hooks
over
the
slots
in
the
rails
,
and
lower
them
into
the
slots
(

)
.
Depress
both
track
roller
blocking
interlocks
(
2
)
slightly
and
extend
the
docking
interlock
bars
(
1
)
.
They
will
pass
under
the
equipment
rails
and
lock
the
lift
truck
arms
to
the
rails
.
Do
this
on
both
sides
.
The
track
roller
blocking
interlocks
are
now
in
the
raised
position
and
are
thus
no
longer
block
-
ing
the
track
rollers
.
The
lift
truck
arms
should
be
approxi
-
mately
level
.
The
breaker
can
now
be
rolled
onto
or
off
the
lift
truck
.
To
move
the
breaker
from
the
lift
truck
into
the
equip
-
ment
,
the
safety
latch
must
be
held
in
the
released
position
by
moving
the
handle
(
4
)
located
on
the
right
arm
,
away
from
the
mast
.
When
moving
the
breaker
onto
the
lift
truck
the
track
rollers
will
lift
this
latch
,
making
it
unnecessary
to
operate
the
handle
.
The
purpose
of
the
safety
latch
is
to
provide
an
automatic
means
of
retaining
the
breaker
on
the
truck
if
the
track
roller
blocking
interlock
has
not
been
operated
to
its
blocking
position
before
lifting
the
breaker
from
the
ground
(
See
GEK
-

)
.
To
load
the
breaker
onto
the
lift
truck
,
extend
each
dock
-
ing
interlock
bar
(
1
)
by
slightly
depressing
the
track
roller
blocking
interlock
(
2
)
and
then
moving
the
handle
(
3
)
away
from
the
mast
as
far
as
it
will
go
toward
the
end
of
the
arms
.
This
permits
the
track
roller
blocking
interlocks
to
be
in
their
raised
position
.
The
height
of
the
arms
should
be
ad
-
justed
to
engage
the
track
rollers
on
the
sides
of
the
breaker
.
Depress
each
track
roller
blocking
interlock
(
2
)
fully
,
and
return
each
docking
interlock
bar
to
its
retracted
position
by
means
of
handle
(
3
)
.
The
breaker
is
now
blocked
in
position
on
the
lift
truck
.
After
the
safety
catch
on
the
right
-
hand
rail
has
been
dis
-
engaged
,
the
breaker
can
now
be
rolled
forward
onto
the
lift
truck
for
transporting
.
Remove
the
breaker
from
the
equipment
by
releasing
and
rolling
it
fully
onto
the
lift
truck
rails
until
it
touches
the
stop
on
the
rails
.
Depress
both
track
roller
blocking
inter
-
locks
(
2
)
fully
and
then
move
handles
(
3
)
as
far
as
they
can
go
toward
the
mast
.
Release
the
track
roller
blocking
inter
-
locks
.
Raise
the
carriage
slightly
to
release
the
docking
hooks
from
the
slots
in
the
equipment
rail
;
move
the
load
a
short
distance
from
the
equipment
,
and
lower
it
to
just
above
floor
level
before
transporting
it
away
from
the
area
.
To
remove
the
lift
truck
and
set
the
breaker
on
the
floor
,
lower
the
carriage
until
the
breaker
is
resting
on
the
floor
and
the
load
of
the
track
rollers
is
no
longer
being
supported
by
the
lift
truck
arms
.
Depress
the
track
roller
blocking
interlocks
(
2
)
slightly
and
move
handles
(
3
)
as
far
as
they
can
go
away
from
the
mast
.
Do
this
on
both
sides
.
The
track
roller
blocking
interlocks
(
2
)
are
now
in
their
raised
posi
-
tion
.
The
lift
truck
can
now
be
pulled
away
from
the
breaker
,
but
the
truck
safety
latch
must
be
held
in
the
released
posi
-
tion
by
moving
the
handle
(
4
)
located
on
the
right
arm
,
away
from
the
mast
.
This
permits
the
track
rollers
to
pass
under
the
latch
.
