operating the attachment. See Table 1 for the operation of
attachment controls.
WARNING
If an attachment has been installed on the lift truck,
make sure the nameplate is correct.
Shut Down Procedure
Stopping
Stop the lift truck as gradually as possible. Hard braking
can cause the load to fall off of the forks and to damage the
load or hurt someone. Gradually stop the lift truck using
plugging or the brake. Applying the brake completely and
quickly can make the lift truck stop abruptly.
Parking
The operator must never leave a lift truck in a condition that
can cause damage and injury. When parking the lift truck,
do the following operations:
1. Bring the lift truck to a stop. Fully lower the forks. Fully
retract the forks. Tilt the forks forward.
2. Put the controls in neutral and return the control handle
to the vertical position to apply the brake. Turn the key
switch to the OFF position and disconnect the battery.
3. If the lift truck is parked because of a malfunction put a
tag on the control handle, stating DO NOT OPERATE.
4. If the lift truck must be left on an incline, put blocks on
the down hill side of the wheels so that the lift truck cannot
move.
5. Do not park the lift truck so that it limits access to fire
aisles, stairways, and fire equipment.
