– Position the fork arms.
– Place the mast in a vertical position.
– Raise the fork carriage to the stack height.
DANGER
Risk of accident!
– When the mast is tilted forward, make sure that
the forklift truck does not tilt forward and that the
load does not slip.
If a truck with increased forward tilt (special equip-
ment) (greater than 3°) is in use, a greater risk of
slipping can be assumed during raising or lowering
of the load.
– Drive further forwards slowly.
CAUTION
Risk of component damage!
Do not damage the racking and load when inserting
the forks.
7090_800-006
– Insert the forks under the load as far as
possible. Stop the truck as soon as the fork
backs contact the load.
The centre of gravity of the load must be posi-
tioned between the fork arms in the middle.
– Raise the fork carriage until the load rests
freely on the forks.
