Uses and improper

uses of the forklift

 Uses for which the forklift is designed

Forklifts C 400/500H-HI, and C 400/500H-HI x4 have been designed and manufactured for lifting, handling and transporting loads on rough ground and industrial use. The safety of individuals and of the loads carried must be ensured through the use of forks or other accessories and equipment.

ROUGH TERRAIN USE (C400/500H)

This forklift truck is designed for transporting and lifting loads on grounds not in good condition, roughly flat, not too steep slopes and small obstacles, so that the stability conditions are not optimal.

INDUSTRIAL USE (C400/500HI)

This forklift truck is designed for transporting and lifting loads on good condition floors, that means flat, levelled and paved ground, so that there are optimal stability conditions.

Any use other than that described above shall be considered inappropriate and therefore improper. Strict adherence to the operating, maintenance and repair conditions specified by the manufacturer are essential in order to maintain the forklift in good working order. Driving, maintenance and repair of the forklift should only be carried out by suitably qualified personnel, with the necessary tools and knowledge of the control and safety procedures relative to the forklift. When handling loads or carrying out maintenance and/or repair work, the occupational health and safety regulations, together with those relative to accident prevention, should be observed. When driving with the forklift on public highways, special care should be taken to ensure compliance with the current legislation for this type of vehicle (Highway Code). AUSA does not assume responsibility for any damage resulting from modifications made to the forklift without express authorization.

The texts following this symbol provide information on recycling and protecting the

environment.

 Improper use

Improper use is understood to mean the use of the forklift in a manner not in keeping with the criteria and instructions given in this Operator’s and Safety Manual and in a way which might cause damage to persons or objects. Some of the more common and dangerous examples of improper use are given below:

- Carrying persons other than the operator on the forklift.

- Not strictly observing the instructions for use and maintenance given in this Operator’s and Safety Manual.

- Exceeding the limits for load and centre of gravity given in the relevant load charts.

- Working on unstable, unshored grounds or at the edges of trenches and ditches.

- Working on excessively steep slopes.

- The use of accessories or equipment for purposes other than those for which they have been designed.

- The use of accessories or equipment not manufactured or authorized by AUSA.

Description of a forklift truck

A forklift truck is a powered vehicle used for transporting or handling loads with the aid of tools specific to the task to be carried out. The forklift is able to lift loads. It consists of a resistant chassis resting upon two axles. The front axle is the drive axle and the rear axle the steering axle, although versions exist in which both axles are driving axles. At the front of the forklift there is a mast, along it moves the front carriage. The unit formed by both is designed to lift and tilt the load forwards and backwards, making handling easier .

 General recommendations for driving a forklift truck Basic information for starting up a forklift truck

Entering and leaving the operator cabin, do not hold or pull the steering wheel to enter the driver cabin, use the handles provided on the front structure of the overhead guard. Always place one foot on the tread of the sill to prevent slipping when climbing in or out (fig. 1). Never start or operate any of the controls unless seated on the driver’s seat. Keep the driver’s cab free of objects and tools. These may move around, block a control or a pedal, and prevent a manoeuvre or stop the forklift. Before starting to work with the forklift, clean any oil or fuel spills, clean and remove grease from hands and the soles of shoes (fig. 2). Do not forget to carry out the operations and daily checks listed in the “General maintenance chart” on this Operator’s and Safety Manual. Check the correct position and fastening of all the guards, caps and safety stops. Check that all the controls are operating correctly. Check that informative and safety plates on the forklift are clean and in good condition. If they are not in good condition, replace them. Wear suitable protective that will protect you in the working environment. This may include a helmet, ear plugs, protective goggles or reflective clothing (fig. 3). Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery or long hair as these could become entangled in the controls, in moving parts or edges of the machine and prove dangerous. If working in an enclosed area make certain there is sufficient ventilation to prevent excessive build-up of exhaust fumes. Under this conditions always stop this engine when not in use. Before starting the forklift be certain to check or test the following items:

- Check for any leaks in the fuel, hydraulic or cooling system.

- Clean any oil or fuel leaks that may exist on the forklift controls or operating area.

- Check tire conditions and pressures.

- Re-tight wheel nuts if necessary.

- Check that all controls are working correctly.

- Check the operator seat belt and its attachments. Ensure seat belt is properly latched. Inspect carefully the condition of this security

system with special attention to:

- cuts or damages in the belt.

- wear or damages in the metallic parts including the anchorage elements.

- badly functioning of the buckle.

- seams or free points of sewing. Check brake pedal travel and effectiveness. Check the following fluid levels:

- Fuel

- Braking fluid

- Hydraulic fluid

- Cooling system fluid

- Engine oil Check the horn. Check that lighting and signalling systems are clean and work correctly. If they do not work check the corresponding fuses and bulbs as shown in MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS on this Operator’s and Safety Manual.

Jumping on or off the forklift can cause serious injury . Always face the machine and use rails and steps to slowly get on and slowly get off the forklift. Adjust seat position so you are comfortable and can easily reach all the controls. Now fasten your seat belt. Always stop the engine and do not smoke when fuelling the machine. (fig. 4) Follow the instructions given in the section “Fuel” on this Operator’s and Safety Manual.

Messages

Before starting and operating the forklift

- Stay alert. Concentrate fully on your work. Your safety and that of others depends on the care you take when operating this forklift.

- Remember that you are the key to safety. Good safety practices not only protect you but also the people around you.

The surrounding area

Be careful around any pedestrians in the surrounding area This forklift was designed to lift loads not people. Never transport people on any part of the forklift. Do not let people ride on the forks (fig. 1). Do not let people stand or walk under raised forks, loaded or unloaded (fig. 2). Give way to the right to pedestrians found in your path. Do not drive rapidly. Driving too fast is dangerous to the driver and to the load. The speed at which the forklift is operated should always be suited to the working conditions and to the space available for manoeuvring. Always drive smoothly and not in a jerky fashion. Never put any part of your body between the fork mast and the forklift body. (fig. 3). Be careful around any load edges, pressure zones or revolving movements and extensions. Be certain you have good visibility at all times. It is important that you can see clearly both forward and backward when operating the forklift. If the load does not allow clear forward visibility, then drive with caution in reverse. (fig. 4). This forklift is not designed to be used as a tow truck or tow vehicle. However if the forklift is to be towed to or from work location, see the section “Towing the forklift” on this Operator’s and Safety Manual.

Work circuit

The movement of loads within an installation or enclosure must be carried out following certain instructions concerning the circulation of forklifts and pedestrians. If you are not aware of these regulations, please check with your supervisor. Study the movements of the forklift to avoid making manoeuvres which are unnecessary, or involve risk to the surrounding areas. Find out which paths are suited to the type of vehicle you are driving and the load carried. If it is necessary to drive along public highways, first check that the forklift complies with current regulations of the country. Highway use of this off-road equipment may be restricted or prohibited by the laws of a State or Province.

Work cycle

(fig. 2)(fig. 3)(fig. 4) (fig. 1)

If it is necessary to move loads continuously and repeatedly, try to do so with the minimum number of movements necessary, where possible. Reducing the number of movements saves fuel and reduces the emission of exhaust fumes. If the work is very intense, remember to check the instrument panel from time to time, especially in extreme climates, as the engine will be working in particularly hard conditions.

Forklift truck circulation

When approaching a junction with poor visibility, reduce speed, emit acoustic warnings and proceed slowly according to the available visibility. The speed of the forklift should at all times be adapted to the working conditions and the surrounding area. Systematically driving at the maximum speed permitted by the machine may put the operator and the surrounding area at risk.

Messages

Driving in reverse

Ensure good visibility of the path to be taken. If the load being carried obstructs visibility , drive in reverse with the utmost of caution. Before reversing, the operator should ensure that this does not involve risks for the forklift, people or objects in the surrounding area (fig. 1).

Driving on gradients

Special care should be taken when driving on gradients: move slowly, avoid placing the machine across the gradient and do not work on higher gradients than those recommended. The maximum permitted gradient does not imply that it is possible to manoeuvre here in absolute safety under full load, ground and operating conditions. Gradients should be descended in reverse, with the load facing the direction of greatest stability (fig. 2).

Rudiments of static equilibrium

In order that the forklift is able to handle loads in a stable and safe manner, certain equilibrium conditions must exist and be maintained between the load and the machinery . Therefore, the forklift is fitted with counterweights at the rear. These are designed to compensate for the weight of the load being carried, as long as the centre of gravity of the load and the forklift are within certain established limits. In order to calculate the values of the transportable weight and the position of the centre of gravity permitted for the forklift see the Load Charts in the section “Operating the Machine” on this Operator’s and Safety Manual .

Rudiments of dynamic equilibrium

While the forklift is moving, and as it gains speed, the equilibrium conditions of the load-forklift unit are modified as the centre of gravity shifts. This is accentuated on lifting loads, turning, braking, etc. In these conditions it is necessary to take the utmost care to ensure that the centre of gravity of the load is maintained within the specifications showed on the load chart plate.

Static equilibrium of a conventional forklift

The forklift counterweight produces a situation of imbalance when the forklift is unloaded. The centre of gravity is maintained low and close to the rear of the forklift. When the load is collected, the imbalance is corrected and the centre of gravity shifts forward. If the load is within the margins given on the load chart, equilibrium is maintained. As the load is lifted, the centre of gravity also rises, shifting upwards. At the moment that the centre of gravity shifts beyond the forklift, the equilibrium is lost and the forklift becomes unstable. Therefore, the forklift should not move while the load is raised.

Stability

Do not carry unstable or loose loads, or loads which are oversized with respect to the forklift. If very large or wide loads must be carried, every precaution must be taken to prevent bumps or other possible accidents. When carrying out lifting manoeuvres, particularly at height, ensure that the forklift is on stable ground as levelled as possible. Do not drive over objects which may endanger the stability of the machine.

The triangle of horizontal stability

To prevent the loads which are being transported from falling, it is necessary to consider the triangle of horizontal stability (fig. 1). This is an imaginary inverted triangle, with the lower end located on the centre of the rear axle and the two upper vertices on each of the front wheels. Stability is guaranteed when the centre of gravity of the combination load

(c)+ machine (m) remains within the limits of this imaginary triangle. Longitudinal stabilization

The risk of longitudinal overturning increases if the forklift is driven while the load is raised. Sharp braking and accelerating or rapid tilting movements decrease stability.

Transversal stability

The risk of overturning sideways increases on turning at incorrect speeds, while the forklift is unloaded or when the load is raised. Rough ground, sharp braking or accelerating or shifts in the load make these conditions worse.

Centre of gravity and the capacity of the forklift truck

Do not overload the forklift or handle loads which shift the centre of gravity beyond that for which it is designed. Manoeuvre slowly, especially when changing direction on slippery ground . Do not handle loads that are unstable, loose or disproportionate to the size of the forks and the forklift machine itself. Make certain that long or wide loads are fastened together so as to be stable and secure.

The load and counterweight

The load should be lifted and lowered with the mast in vertical position or slightly tilted backwards. The raised load should only be tilted forwards when it is about to be unloaded. Tilting the load forwards or backwards (swinging) is very useful for collecting or positioning the load, but affects the longitudinal and lateral stability. Therefore, when handling raised loads, do not swing the mast more than is absolutely essential. The forklift may tip forwards when carrying a raised load with the mast tilted forwards, or in the event of sudden braking or accelerating while the load is raised. If using an accessory , attachment or tool, first check the permitted load. The combination of the weight of the forklift plus the weight of the accessory or attachment reduces the nominal load.

 Load handling

• Know the lifting capacity of your forklift and operate within those limits. See the Load Limit Charts shown in the section TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS on this Operator’s Safety Manual and shown in a plate on the left mudguard.

• Never transport loads with the forks raised -keep them as low as possible to attain maximum stability-. The risk of overturning increases when the forklift is driven with the load raised. Keep it low when in transit. (fig. 1, 2)

• Do not drive on surfaces that could affect the stability of the machine.

• Only raise the forks when the machine is on a level, flat surface.

• If necessary to temporarily operate the forklift in rough, unimproved areas, be very careful when operating near an open trench, a high bank or an overhang that can fall and cause a roll over with the potential of serious injury or death. Y ou must make a careful judgement whether you and your forklift can be safely operated near any of these areas.

• Stay off steep inclines and slopes. Hillside operation can be very dangerous due to the constant potential of rollovers.

• When operating on modest inclines or slopes:

- Move very carefully and slowly.

- Keep the forks and load low.

- Keep the forks facing uphill at all times. This means driving in backwards down a

slope to maintain maximum load stability.

- Always travels directly up or down the slope.

- Do not travel across an incline.

- Never position the forklift sideways on a slope.

• Forks should only be raised on level stable ground. You must be the judge whether ground conditions will permit the safe operation of the forklift. Operation on an incline can be very dangerous. Rain, snow, loose gravel or soft ground can be factors which may prevent the use of the forklift.

• Keep the forks and the loads away from overhead obstructions.

• Never operate the forklift near or close to overhead power lines.

• If the forklift is operated in an enclosed area, use ventilation systems to replace the exhaust fumes with fresh air.

• Use ventilation systems to remove any flammable dust or steam in the working area.

• Do not overload the forklift and do not allow the load centre to move. Always manoeuvre slowly and smoothly especially when changing direction.

• Keep the forks facing uphill at all times. This means reversing backwards down a slope to maintain maximum load stability.

• When depositing a load to a height, tilt the mast forward just enough to leave the load on a shelf or pile. When taking a load from a shelf, tilt the mast back just enough to stabilise the load on the forks.

• Always operate the fork tilt lever slowly and smoothly. (fig. 2).

• Always drive with the forks in the low position and with the mast tilted slightly back.

• Make certain that long or wide loads are fastened together so as to be stable and secure.

 Critical speed

The speed at which the forklift moves affects its stability. When turning, braking, or accelerating, the centre of gravity shifts within the triangle of stability. Sharp turns, sudden braking or accelerating cause the centre of gravity to shift sharply and it may fall outside the triangle. This is the moment when the stability of the forklift and the load are not guaranteed and there is a risk of accident. When manoeuvring reduce the speed of the forklift and avoid turning the steering wheel sharply. Do not drive the forklift at a fast speed and then attempt a turn as the forklift may tip over . Always drive slowly when making a turn and keep the forks low when turning (fig. 1).

 Accesses and doors

Make sure that the passages and doors along the route are sufficiently high to allow all the forklift to pass. When carrying out lifting manoeuvres, pay special attention to the height of the roof, lighting and other overhead installations.

 Ground surface

Check that the ground is strong enough to bear the forklift when loaded, especially when approaching bridges, the edges of embankments, concrete floors elevators, etc. (fig.

2).

 Lighting

The forklift working area should be adequately lit to prevent the risk of accident, running over persons or colliding with obstacles. As soon as the daylight fades, the forklift lighting system should be switched on. If the forklift is not equipped with lighting, make sure that the working area is adequately lit. If this is not possible, do not continue working with the forklift, this may result in an accident.

 Loading bay. Communication. Shelving and installations. The load

The loading bay or area where the loads are handled should be correctly equipped and signposted. The operating area of the forklift should be free of obstacles and pedestrians, however if their presence is necessary, the pedestrians should move in areas which have been duly marked as such and they should be easily distinguished, for example, by wearing reflective jackets. If the area is closed it should be well-ventilated and the forklift must be equipped with lighting and exhaust gas purifier systems. The forklift operator should be able to communicate normally with pedestrians. If the surrounding area is excessively noisy, pedestrians should refrain from walking in the immediate vicinity. If this is unavoidable, the utmost care should be taken. Radio communication equipment should not be handled while driving the forklift. If it is necessary to use the radio, pull over to one side and signal the position of the forklift, using the lights or hazard warning lights. Shelving for the loads have a series of marked passageways. The width of these should be at least the width of the forklift plus 40 in (1 m). If the passageway is two-way, the width must be sufficient to allow two forklifts to pass plus an additional 55 in (1,5 m). Before using the forklift to handle loads check the load and ensure that the weight does not exceed the forklift capacity. At the same time, check that the load is stabilized and correctly secured, to ensure that no part of the load falls off during transportation.

 Order and cleanliness

(fig. 1)(fig. 2)

Carrying out a series of checks before starting the forklift and keeping the operator cab clean help to make the work safer. To do so, follow the MAINTENANCE CHART given in this Operator’s and Safety Manual strictly, and keep the operator cab clean and free of earth, gravel, mud, oil or other objects which may cause falls. Do not carry objects in the operator cab. These may injure the operator or accidentally activate the forklift controls.

 Overhead Guard

WARNING

Y ou are protected by an overhead guard which complies with the provisions of ISO 3449 / ISO 3471 and ASME B56.6. It protects the operator against falling objects and, together with the mast, gives protection to the operator in the event of an accidental tip over. The seat belt is an important part of this safety system and must always be fastened before operating the forklift. Failure to wear the seat belt in the event of an accidental tip over could result serious injury or death as you could be crushed by the machine or by the overhead guard.

The above decal is located on the side of the machine. Overhead Guard must be weekly inspected for excessive damage cracks permanent deformation or signs of potential cracks. If these incidents appear, structure must not be repaired but replaced for a new one.

 When leaving / parking the forklift (fig. 1, 2, 3) A poorly parked forklift truck is a risk. Park the forklift in the areas provided for this purpose, without obstructing the passage of others, exits or entrances to stairs and emergency equipment.

• Place the forks or attachment in the fully lowered position.

• Set all the controls in the “0” neutral position.

• Apply the parking brake.

• Do not park the forklift on a slope. If it is necessary to park the forklift on a gradient, in addition to using the parking brake, place chocks against the wheels.

• Stop the engine and cut the ignition circuit. Remove the ignition key.

• Lock all mechanisms to prevent any unauthorised person from using the machine.

• Remember that you are the key to safety. Good safety practices not only protect you but also the people around you.

 Fuel

Handling

- Only use the fuel type authorized by AUSA. Do not use fuel mixed with oil, other fuels or unsuitable additives.

- The correct fuel for the forklift is diesel. For further details regarding fuel type and required specifications see the section FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS.

- Do not allow the fuel to come into contact with the skin and avoid inhaling the fumes, which are toxic. High concentrations of fuel vapour may cause sickness, loss of consciousness or even loss of life in the event of prolonged exposure. If you experience symptoms such as sickness or loss of consciousness seek medical advice immediately.

- Do not store fuel in closed places. The fuel vapours will alter the atmosphere of the enclosure and may cause a fire or explosion.

- Use suitable impermeable clothing, safety glasses and gloves when handling fuel. When refuelling from a tank, bucket or barrel using a siphon, the following precautions should be taken.

- If refuelling is by gravity, from a raised tank, open the fuel output valve of the tank slowly.

- If the tank or barrel does not have an output valve use a suitable vacuum pump.

 Parking the forklift and stopping the engine Note: Make certain that the forklift is parked on level ground when leaving it overnight.

Also park it on level ground before any scheduled maintenance is attempted.

- Lower the forks to the ground, apply the parking brake and push directional switch to neutral.

- Run the engine at idle for 1 minute if the engine has been working at full load -as this procedure will cool down the engine components evenly.

- T urn off the key switch in a counterclockwise motion to position to stop the engine (a) (fig. 1 previous page).

- Remove the key from the ignition and take it with you. Never leave the key in a parked machine.

 Forklift nominal load (fig. 1)

The Rated Capacity of this forklift is the weight the machine is capable of lifting under safe operating conditions. The lifting capacity of a forklift is determined by the height and weight limits of the load. Poor ground conditions as well as shape of the load may reduce the weight that can be safely lifted. Overloading the forks can make the forklift unstable, hard to handle, and may be in danger of tipping over. Inspect the load you intend to lift and make certain it is within the limits of the Load Capacity Chart located on the left hand side mudguard.

Rough terrain use:

With load center at 20in (500 mm) from vertical face of the forks, the C400H and C400H

(fig. 1) C400H / C400H x4

x4 has a rated capacity of 8818lbs (4000 kg) With a load center at 24in (600 mm) from the vertical face of the forks, the C400H and C400H x 4 has a rated capacity of 8146lbs (3695 kg) and the C500H and C500H x 4 has a rated capacity of 11023lbs (5000 kg).

Industrial use:

With load center at 20in (500 mm) from vertical face of the forks, the C400HI and C400HI x4 has a rated capacity of 8818lbs (4000 kg) With a load center at 24in (600 mm) from the vertical face of the forks, the C400HI and C400HI x 4 has a rated capacity of 8146lbs (3695 kg) and the C500HI and C500HI x 4 has a rated capacity of 11023lbs (5000 kg). If the load is too heavy split it and re-stack it. Use of attachments other than the pallet forks that came with this machine may reduce lifting capacity and affect other machine

24 in. load center

1- Fork Face 2- Load Center

 Load Center (fig. 1, 2)

To rate the lifting capacity of forklifts manufacturers have standardized on a certain size of load. The rated capacity of this forklift is based on a cube measuring 39in (1 m.), in all three dimensions with the center of gravity in the center of this cube. This is known as 24in (600 mm) load center o 19in (500 mm) from both the vertical face of the mast and from the lifting surface of the forks). lt is important to keep load center in mind for as the load center increases the lifting capacity of the forklift decreases.

Operating the

forklift

 Alteration to the forklift / load relation

The relationship between the forklift and the load is altered by changes in:

- Removable attachments (see load limit charts).

- Height of the forks.

- Changes in the motion of the machine and the grade of the ground on which it is moving.

- Smoothness and stability of the ground.

- Machine stability must be maintained while these factors change constantly during forklift operation.

This requires careful judgement on the part of the operator.

 Lifting Capacity

Machine stability is maintained only when the forklift handles loads within its rated lifting capacity. The Load Capacity Charts are included in the section TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS on this Operator’s and Safety Manual. The lifting capacity of the machine is determined by the safe height and weight limits of the load. An overload on the forks makes the forklift unstable, hard to handle, and will present the danger of tipping over.

 Load charts (fig. 1, 2, 3)

The charts you can see in the section TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS on this Operator’s and Safety Manual shows how much your forklift can lift as the load centre increases out to 4in. Note how the lift capacity decreases as the load centre increases. This chart is reproduced as a machine decal and is located on both the right and the left side of the mast and at the driver seat for ease of reference during machine operation. The charts you can see in the section TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS on this Operator’s and Safety Manual represents the load that can be lifted on a level surface, with the load evenly displaced (like a square box with the weight centred), at certain lift height (depending on the mast height and use) . The horizontal axis “D” (often referred to as the “X” axis), represents the distance in inches that the load centre is moved forward from the face of the forks. The vertical axis “G” (often referred to as the “Y” axis), shows the load weight in pounds o kilos.

Special procedures

 Engine overheating

If the engine overheats and the engine temperature warning light on the control panel lights up, try the following:

- Check and clean the radiator coolant blades. See the section “Periodic maintenance operations” in this Operator’s and Safety Manual.

- Slow down the speed but keep the forklift moving in order to allow air to circulate around the radiator.

- If the engine is still overheating after approximately one minute, stop driving the forklift, set the forward / backwards directional travel control switch to neutral, apply the parking brake and stop the engine.

WARNING

The radiator may be extremely hot. Use gloves before touching the radiator.

- Allow the engine to cool down. Check the coolant level and refill if necessary.

- If the engine continues to overheated, pls. contact to an authorized AUSA dealer as soon as possible.

 After-use care

When the forklift is used in salt water areas (beach areas, etc.), rinse the machine with fresh water to protect the forklift and its components from rust. We recommend lubricating the metal components. This should be carried out at the end of every day after using the forklift. When the forklift has been working in muddy areas, it should be washed with fresh water to protect the forklift and keep the lights clean.

Note: Never use high-pressure water to clean the forklift. ONL Y USE LOW -PRESSURE WATER. High-pressure water may cause electrical and mechanical damage.

 Overturning (fig. 1)

In the event of the forklift overturning, the driver must avoid being trapped between the machine and the ground. Therefore, we recommend:

- Try to remain inside the operator cabin.

- Hold onto the steering wheel tightly.

- Lean feet firmly onto the floor of the overhead guard.

- Try to keep as far away as possible from the point of impact.

Special procedures

When the forklift overturns or is knocked onto one side, restore it to normal operating position (on all four wheels).

WARNING

DO NOT TRY TO START THE FORKLIFT without first checking with an authorized AUSA dealer.

- Remove the four glow plugs.

- T urn the key in the ignition to position (c). Hold the key in position until the oil has come out of the combustion chamber.

WARNING

The oil will come out of the combustion chambers at high pressure and may cause injury.

- Re-assemble the four glow plugs.

- Check the engine oil level and refill if necessary.

- If the engine oil pressure warning light remains lit after starting the engine, stop immediately to prevent internal damages and refer contact to an authorized AUSA dealer as soon as possible.

 Immersion of the forklift

If the forklift becomes submerged under water, it will be necessary to take it to an authorized AUSA dealer as soon as possible.

WARNING

DO NOT START THE ENGINE. Immersion of the forklift may cause serious damage to the engine if the start-up procedures are not followed correctly.

- Arrange for an authorized AUSA dealer to carefully inspect the supply system as shown in the MAINTENANCE CHART.

 Storage and pre-parking preparation.

When the forklift is not to be used for more than a month it should be stored correctly. When the forklift is brought out for use again after a period of storage, special preparation is required. Ask an authorized AUSA dealer about the appropriate procedures.

Operations

 General comments

Only original AUSA spare parts should be used during maintenance operations. This is the only way to guarantee that the AUSA machinery will have the same operational level that it had upon delivery. This forklift contains parts and systems which are subject of wearing and could require re-adjusting, in order to keep reliability of the machine and the safety of the operator , the environment and the surrounding area, such as for example, exhaust gas emissions. The necessary maintenance should be carried out regularly in order to ensure similar conditions to those existing on leaving the factory. All repair and maintenance operations should be made while the forklift is unloaded, the parking brake applied and the wheels blocked in order to keep the forklift stationary . Disconnect the battery (fig. 1) before carrying out any work on the electrical system. Never use a flame to check fluid levels.

Respect the environment When changing oil or other fluids use a suitable container to collect the old fluid. Take care not to cause damage to the environment and take all the replaced materials (batteries, coolant, etc) to the appropriate recycling centres. In the event of leaks of substances which may be harmful to persons or to the environment, immediately take the necessary measures to reduce their impact, for example in the case of oil leaks, plug the leak, use a recipient to collect the oil, sprinkle absorbent material or collect up and remove the contaminated soil if necessary.

 Access to engine and transmission for maintenance

The engine, the transmission, the engine oil and hydraulic reservoirs and filters, and the engine coolant reservoir are located beneath the floor (cabin floor) of the operator’s compartment (also referred to as the “operator’s cabin”) (fig. 2). Use the following procedures to access them:

(fig. 1)(fig. 3)

(fig. 2)

- With the operator’s sat, start the machine and tilt the mast fully forwards.

- Stop the engine and remove the key from the ignition.

- Move the joystick to the right until reaching the maximum forward tilt.

- Stop the engine and remove the key from the ignition switch.

- Get down from the driver’s cabin.

- Pull lever (a) located at the rear of the cabin, behind the seat (fig. 3) to unlock the latch of the cabin, then lift and tilt it forward.

- The operator’s compartment is tilted forward and upward by a gas strut on each side of the operator’s compartment.
