WARNING

8. Always travel with the load carrying device fully raised whether
loaded or unloaded, except when entering or leaving a pallet.
• Be sure that the area being used for test running is clear of
pedestrians and obstructions. Operate unit with no load.
• Operation at full speed should only be attempted after
complete familiarity with all operations or loss of control and
serious personal injury may result. Always exercise caution
and good judgement while running this unit.
The most efcient unit operation is achieved while unit is being operated
at half speed to full speed. Only attempt full speed after familiarizing
yourself with steering and directional controls.
9. When operating either
the 2W1 or 2W2 as a
walkie with the load
carrying device trailing
the vehicle, always
walk to the side of the
unit. Maximum speed
is set at 3.5 mph.
When operating either unit with forks leading, always
use two hands on the steerhead. If you can't see don't go, pick another
direction which gives you a better view of your operating path.
