look for rough spots. Look for anything that
might cause you to lose control, bog down or
upset.
Clear away trash and debris. Pick up
anything that might puncture a tire or let the
load lose balance.
Slow down for wet and slippery roads.
Stay away from the edge of the road. If
unavoidable, use extreme caution.
Rugged surface would cause vibration of
truck and noise. The high air pressure of
tyres will cause vibration and noise, too.
Do not operate the truck when the
weather is execrable, such as windy, thunder
storm, snow and etc.
23. When operating loaded truck, have
the rear end of your machine pointed
downhill. When operating unloaded truck,
have the rear end of your machine pointed
24. When running down on a grade,
use engine idle speed. At the same time use
the brake pedal intermittently.
25. It is dangerous to travel with forks
higher than appropriate position regardless
of whether loaded or not. Keep the good
traveling posture. (When traveling, the forks
should be 15 to 30 cm above the ground or
floor.)
Do not operate the side shift mechanism,
if equipped, when the forks are raised and
loaded, since this will cause the truck to be
unbalanced.
A truck with attachments should be
considered as with loads.
upgrade.
Never turn sideways on an incline. There
is danger of the truck turning over.
26. Travel with load as low as possible
and tilted back.
21
27. Avoid braking too sharply or
descending on a grade at a high speed.
There is danger of loads falling down or the
truck turning over.
28. Always brake to full stop before
reversing direction of travel.
29. Taking account of the shape and
material of loads to be handled, use a proper
attachment and tools.
Avoid hoisting the load, with wire rope
hung on the forks or attachment, since the
wire rope may slide off. If needed, a qualified
personnel for slinging operation should
perform, making use of a hook or crane arm
attachment.
Take care not to protrude the forks out of
the load. The protruded fork tips may
damage or turn over the adjacent load.
Do not use a man as an additional
counterweight. It’s quite dangerous.

stacked and evenly positioned across both
forks. Don’t attempt to lift a load with only
one fork.
On the truck with an attachment such as
a load grab, make certain that the load is
securely and correctly grabbed, and pull the
loading control level to the full (increase to
relief pressure).
38. Never lift loads with the truck
inclined. Avoid loading work on a grade.
39. Don’t stack loads on forks in such a
way that the top of loads exceeds the load
backrest height. If unavoidable, make the
load stable securely. When handling bulky
loads that restrict your vision, operate the
truck in reverse or have a guide.
36. Don’t enter into loads at a high
speed. Always make certain that your load is
stable before lifting the forks.
Be sure to once stop in front of the load
to be lifted, and make certain that there is no
obstacle, then engage the load by driving
forwards.
37. Make certain that your load is well
40. Use minimum forward and reverse
tilt when stacking and unloading loads.
Never tilt forward unless load is over stack or
at low lift height.
When stacking loads on a high place,
once make the mast vertical at a height of 15
to 20 cm above the ground and then lift the
load farther. Never attempt to tilt the mast
beyond vertical when the load is raised high.
To unloading loads from a high place,
insert forks into the pallet and drive
backwards, then lower the load. Tilt the mast
back after lowering. Never attempt to tilt the
23
mast with the load raised high.
41. Don’t tow the truck that its engine is
in trouble, or steering system doesn’t work
correctly or its braking system has been
disabled
Obey the communication rules on the
road when towing the truck.

should flameout the vehicle. And press the
brake padel for 5-10 times to release the
energy in the accumulator.
45. You should use the Safety belt
correctly, it should be level, can not be
distorted. You’d better tie the belt inthe hip
but not at waist line. If a vehicle overturned
in the accident, the driver first to do is
flameout the vehicles, in order to avoid
burning vehicles or explosion. When
flameout, open your legs, then used your
hands to seize the steering wheel in your
room or fixed roof-care, shoring body firmly
in the seats, to facilitate the lifting of seat
belts.

7.Battery electrolyte check
There is a little ball in battery capacity
display, this ball can change its color as
density of electrolyte changing, it is called
electric eye. The ball will be green when the
capacity is normal ,density of electrolyte
reaches the standard; it will be white when
capacity is not enough, density of electrolyte
does not reach the standard; it will be red
when the electrolyte is acute shortage ,look
over whether the shell is broken, leaking or
the battery has fault. SEE<Operational
