must not be in a raised position. If the lift truck is moving
rapidly, slow to a walking speed before changing the direc-
tion of travel.
Techtronix 100 Transmission
The Techtronix 100 transmission is equipped with Control-
led Power Reversal, Auto-Deceleration, Roll Reduction,
Roll Back, and Reduced Drive Tire Slippage features.
Operators should be trained and become familiar with
these operating features before transporting loads.
Controlled Power Reversal
WARNING
The factory settings are set for most load handling
applications, but may require adjustment for special
applications to avoid load damage or personal injury
due to rapid direction reversals and unstable loads.
The factory settings for the Controlled Power Reversal
Feature can be changed by a Yale Service Technician
when required to meet special application require-
ments.
The Techtronix 100 transmissions allow the operator to
change travel direction at any travel speed without damag-
ing the transmission. The operator is responsible for control
of the truck and the stability of the load. Operators should
be trained and become familiar with these operating fea-
tures before transporting loads.
When a direction change is selected, the lift truck's Vehicle
Management System automatically reduces engine speed
to idle and activates transmission braking. The operator
controls the level of transmission braking, or deceleration,
with the use of the accelerator or Foot Directional Control
pedal. Depressing the accelerator or Foot Directional Con-
trol pedal increases the amount of transmission braking
before the lift truck begins to move in the opposite direc-
tion. Releasing the accelerator or Foot Directional Control
pedal after selecting a direction change, reduces the
amount of transmission braking. Application of the service
brakes allows the operator to bring the lift truck to a com-
plete stop at any time. Once the truck stops and travel
direction changes, the normal control of the accelerator or
Foot Directional Control pedal returns.
The operator should always consider the load that is being
carried, and keep the carriage lowered, when making a
controlled power reversal or using transmission braking.
