Still MX-X - Securing the Load Support; Emergency Operation

Securing the load support
In order to secure the load support against
lowering during maintenance work, the lower-
ing movement can be locked by closing the
shut-off valves. A notch in the block section in-
dicates the valve position.
●
The notch is pointing in the direction of the
connected line = flow open
●
The notch is at a right angle to the direction
of the connected line = flow blocked
DANGER
Risk from lowering of the lift mast or driver's cab
– The pressure in the hydraulic system must be re-
leased before any work is carried out on it. The
load support must also be lowered to the ground.
– Before a person can go underneath the raised
driver's cab, an additional mechanical safety de-
vice must be installed. For example, fit a suitably
strong brace around the bridge pieces on parts of
the lift mast or place a suitably strong jack stand
underneath the driver’s cab.
– Lock all existing shut-off valves. There is a valve
for each main lift cylinder (1), one for each free lift
cylinder* (2) and two additional valves for the hy-
draulic lines for the attachment (3).
*Option
Emergency operation
If the entire truck control unit or part of it fails,
the industrial truck can be moved out of the
working area by means of the relevant emer-
gency operation mechanism.
WARNING
– Only tow at creep speed
– There must always be an operator in the industrial
truck that is being towed.
– There must not be anyone in the danger area of
the trailer train.
– In order to prevent strong lateral forces and there-
fore the risk of tipping, always leave plenty of
space when driving round corners.
– The vehicle used for towing must always be driv-
en carefully and be able to brake gently and in
good time.
