12. LOADING OPERATIONS
2-17
Do not use the drawbar pin for towing other lift trucks, for being
towed by other lift trucks, or for lifting operations.
The drawbar pin installed to the rear of the counterweight is used only to
free the truck when the tires have become stuck in mud or in a ditch and
the lift truck cannot move, or when loading the lift truck on to a trailer or
truck.
USING DRAWBAR PIN
• When adjusting the position (width) of the forks, be careful not to get
your hands caught.
• After adjusting, check that the forks are held securely in position by
the fork stopper. If the forks are not held in position, there is a danger
that the forks may move when the lift truck is traveling and the load
may fall off.
FIT FORKS SECURELY IN POSITION
Be sure the tension of the left and right chains is the same. (See “CHECK BEFORE OPERATION” on
page 3-20.) If the tension is not the same, the load will be unbalanced even if it is loaded correctly in the
center, and there is danger that the lift truck may tip. (See “CHECK LIFT-CHAIN” on page 3-27 for details of
adjustment.)
