A Correct use and application of the truck
A
The „Guidelines for the Correct Use and Application of Industrial Trucks“ (VDMA) are
included in the scope of delivery for this truck. The guidelines are part of these
operating instructions and must always be heeded. National regulations are fully
applicable.
The fork-lift truck described in these operating instructions is a truck that is suitable
for lifting and transporting loads.
It must be used, operated and maintained according to the information in these
operating instructions. Any other uses are outside the design envelope and can lead
to injury to persons or damage to equipment and property. Above all, overloading
caused by excessively heavy or unbalanced loads must be avoided. The max.
admissible load to be picked up is indicated on the identification plate or load diagram
label shown on the truck. The operator must ensure that damaged and/or poorly
readable load diagrams are renewed. The fork-lift truck must not be operated in
spaces subject to fire or explosion hazards, or in spaces where corrosive or very
dusty atmospheres prevail.
Duties of the user: A „user“ within the meaning of these operating instructions is
defined as any natural or legal person who either uses the fork-lift truck himself, or on
whose behalf it is used. In special cases (e.g. leasing or renting), the user is
considered the person, who, in accordance with existing contractual agreements
between the owner and the user of the fork-lift truck, is charged with the observance
of the operating duties.
The user must ensure that the truck is not abused and only used within its design
limits and that all danger to life and limb of the operator, or third parties, is avoided.
In addition to this, it must be ensured that the relevant accident prevention regulations
and other safety-related provisions, as well as the operating, servicing and
maintenance guidelines, are observed. The user must also ensure that all persons
operating the truck have read and understood these operating instructions.
m
If these operating instructions are not observed the warranty becomes void. The
same applies if improper works are carried out at the device by the customer and/or
third parties without permission of our Customer Service.
Mounting of attachments: The mounting or installation of any attachments which
will interfere with, or supplement, the functions of the truck is permitted only after
written approval by the manufacturer has been obtained. If necessary, the approval
of local authorities has to be obtained.
Any approval obtained from local authorities does not, however, make the approval
by the manufacturer unnecessary.
Trailing and slipping loads: The truck may only be used for trailing or slipping loads
for which the truck has been approved.

B Description of the truck
1 Design and application
EFG-Vac is an electric rider-controlled fork lift truck in four-wheel construction with
front drive which picks up, transports, and lifts its load outside the wheelbase. It is a
cantilevered counterbalance truck which can – due to its load lifting device being
located in front of the lift truck – unload lorries and deliver the load on ramps or in
racks unimpededly. It can be used to stack and transport DIN 15142 pallets,
DIN 15144 lattice box pallet, and other palletised loads.
Truck types and maximum carrying capacity:
*) The load diagrams attached to the trucks are binding for the carrying capacity
Type max. carrying capacity *) Load centre
EFG-Vac 22 2,200 kg 500 mm
EFG-Vac 25 2,500 kg 500 mm
EFG-Vac 30 3,000 kg 500 mm

2.1 Truck
Steering (8): When a load is applied to the driver seat the steering is switched to
Standby. The steering unit runs at a preset idle speed. Depending on the steering
request the steering pump is increased and the travel speed is reduced depending on
the steering arc (“CurveControl”). The steering angle is indicated in the display.
Driver seat (2): The driver seat is a comfort seat and the steering column is
adjustable. There are storage places for documents or personal belongings of the
driver. The MULTI-PILOT combines all hydraulic functions and the travel direction
switch in one single lever. The overhead guard (1) is prepared for a cabin installation
and thus can be easily retrofitted.
Electric/electronic system: Sophisticated three-phase AC technology enables data
transfers with few cables only (CAN bus). Thus we achieve decreased susceptibility
to faults caused be broken cables as well as considerably faster fault isolation. The
complex TC system (Total Control) is designed for simply, safe, and flexible usage.
Depending on the load the driver can select from different operating programmes:
from high-performance to energy-saving. Convenient and very fast fault analysis and
programming can be performed via PC.
Drive and brake system: The front drive offers ideal traction to the drive wheels at
all times.
The hydraulically actuated oil-bath multi-disk brake used a service brake is practically
maintenance-free. The encapsulation in the transmission allows applications even in
aggressive environments. In addition, the lift truck is generatively braked via the travel
motor. Thus the energy consumption is minimised.
After approximately 15 sec standstill of the truck or 1 to 15 sec (adjustable) after the
driver seat is relieved the spring-loaded brake engages.
When actuating the accelerator the spring-loaded brake is automatically disengaged.
Hydraulic system: All functions must be executed sensitively, proportionally, and
simultaneously (only if this does not impair the safety). For higher efficiency a
hydraulic unit and a steering booster motor function separately from each other. The
micro pressure filter can be changed from the top (without spilling hydraulic oil).
Lifting mast (7): Our goal is optimising the view. The high-strength steel profiles are
narrow, which is especially notable in the three-stage lifting mast with its good view
to the fork arms. The same good results are achieved for the fork arm carriage.
The lifting mast as well as the fork arm carriage move on prelubricated and thus
maintenance-free cocked support rollers.

4 Operation of the fork lift truck
4.1 Safety regulations applicable when operating the truck
Driving lanes and work areas: Only such lanes and routes that are specially alloca-
ted for truck traffic must be used. Unauthorised persons must stay away from work
areas. Loads must only be stored at places specially provided for this purpose.
Driving conduct: The travelling speed must be adapted to the prevailing local conditions. The truck must be driven at slow speed when negotiating bends or narrow
passages, when passing through swing doors and at blind spots. The driver must always observe an adequate braking distance between the fork-lift truck and the vehicle in front and he must be in control of his truck at all times. Sudden stopping (except
in emergencies), rapid U-turns and overtaking at dangerous or blind spots is not permitted. It is forbidden to lean out of or reach beyond the working and operating area.
Visibility: The driver must look in the direction of travel and must always have a clear
view of the route ahead. When loads blocking the view are carried, the fork-lift truck
must be driven with the load at the rear. If this is not possible, a second person must
walk in front of the fork-lift truck to give suitable warnings.
Negotiating slopes and inclines: Negotiating of slopes and inclines is permitted
only when they are recognised lanes, when they are clean and non-slipping, and
when the technical specification of the truck permits safe driving on such slopes or
inclines. Loads must always be carried at that end of the truck facing uphill. U-turns,
cutting obliquely over slopes or inclines and parking of the fork-lift truck on slopes or
inclines is not permitted. Inclines must only be negotiated at slow speed, with the
driver ready to brake at any moment.
Use of lifts and driving on loading platforms: Lifts and loading platforms must only
be used if they are of adequate load bearing capacity, if suitable for driving on, and if
authorised by the user of the truck for truck traffic. The fork-lift truck driver has to satisfy himself accordingly before driving into lifts or on to loading platforms. The truck
must enter lifts with the load in front and must take up a position which does not allow
it to come into contact with the walls of the lift shaft. Persons riding in the lift together
with the fork-lift truck must only enter the lift after the fork-lift truck has come safely to
a standstill, and must leave the lift before the fork-lift truck.
Nature of the loads carried: The driver must verify the proper condition of the load
unit. Only loads that have been safely and correctly secured must be carried. Never
transport loads stacked higher than the top of the fork carriage, or stacked higher than
the guard grille.
Towing of trailers or other vehicles is only allowed occasionally and on paved,
level driveways with a maximum deviation of +/-1% and a maximum speed of 5 km/
h. Permanent trailer operation is not permitted.
While towing, loads are not allowed on the forks.
The maximum trailer load given for the fork lift truck for braked and/or unbraked
trailers must not be exceeded. The indicated trailer load is only valid for the auxiliary
coupling at the fork lift truck counterweight. Also heed the instructions of the coupling
manufacturer if the genuine trailer coupling is replaced by another make.
After attaching the trailer but before starting driving, the driver must check that the
trailer coupling is secured against detaching. Towing fork lift trucks must be operated
in such a manner that safe driving and braking of the truck and the trailer is
guaranteed for all driving movements

4 Operation of the fork lift truck
4.1 Safety regulations applicable when operating the truck
Driving lanes and work areas: Only such lanes and routes that are specially alloca-
ted for truck traffic must be used. Unauthorised persons must stay away from work
areas. Loads must only be stored at places specially provided for this purpose.
Driving conduct: The travelling speed must be adapted to the prevailing local con-
ditions. The truck must be driven at slow speed when negotiating bends or narrow
passages, when passing through swing doors and at blind spots. The driver must al-
ways observe an adequate braking distance between the fork-lift truck and the vehic-
le in front and he must be in control of his truck at all times. Sudden stopping (except
in emergencies), rapid U-turns and overtaking at dangerous or blind spots is not per-
mitted. It is forbidden to lean out of or reach beyond the working and operating area.
Visibility: The driver must look in the direction of travel and must always have a clear
view of the route ahead. When loads blocking the view are carried, the fork-lift truck
must be driven with the load at the rear. If this is not possible, a second person must
walk in front of the fork-lift truck to give suitable warnings.
Negotiating slopes and inclines: Negotiating of slopes and inclines is permitted
only when they are recognised lanes, when they are clean and non-slipping, and
when the technical specification of the truck permits safe driving on such slopes or
inclines. Loads must always be carried at that end of the truck facing uphill. U-turns,
cutting obliquely over slopes or inclines and parking of the fork-lift truck on slopes or
inclines is not permitted. Inclines must only be negotiated at slow speed, with the
driver ready to brake at any moment.
Use of lifts and driving on loading platforms: Lifts and loading platforms must only
be used if they are of adequate load bearing capacity, if suitable for driving on, and if
authorised by the user of the truck for truck traffic. The fork-lift truck driver has to sa-
tisfy himself accordingly before driving into lifts or on to loading platforms. The truck
must enter lifts with the load in front and must take up a position which does not allow
it to come into contact with the walls of the lift shaft. Persons riding in the lift together
with the fork-lift truck must only enter the lift after the fork-lift truck has come safely to
a standstill, and must leave the lift before the fork-lift truck.
Nature of the loads carried: The driver must verify the proper condition of the load
unit. Only loads that have been safely and correctly secured must be carried. Never
transport loads stacked higher than the top of the fork carriage, or stacked higher than
the guard grille.
Towing of trailers or other vehicles is only allowed occasionally and on paved,
level driveways with a maximum deviation of +/-1% and a maximum speed of 5 km/
h. Permanent trailer operation is not permitted.
While towing, loads are not allowed on the forks.
The maximum trailer load given for the fork lift truck for braked and/or unbraked
trailers must not be exceeded. The indicated trailer load is only valid for the auxiliary
coupling at the fork lift truck counterweight. Also heed the instructions of the coupling
manufacturer if the genuine trailer coupling is replaced by another make.
After attaching the trailer but before starting driving, the driver must check that the
trailer coupling is secured against detaching. Towing fork lift trucks must be operated
in such a manner that safe driving and braking of the truck and the trailer is
guaranteed for all driving movements

4.2 Driving
f
When driving through electromagnetic fields that exceed the permitted limits,
uncontrolled driving behaviour may occur.
Immediately actuate the EMERGENCY OFF (master switch), brake the truck by
means of the service brake and engage the parking brake.
Locate the cause of the malfunction and notify the customer service of the
manufacturer, if necessary.
Safety functions
A
When the driver seat is not occupied or the driver weight is set too high, the travel
function is interrupted by the safety switch (refer to section 3 “Adjusting the driver
weight”). The spring-loaded brake is disengaged by occupying the driver seat and
actuating the accelerator pedal.
The travel speed is reduced depending on the steering angle. Nevertheless the driver
is still responsible for adapting the travel speed to the conditions of travel path,
working area, and load.
f
Do not drive the truck unless the hoods
are closed and locked in the stipulated
manner.
The travel paths must be free of
obstacles.
– Lift the fork arm carriage
approximately 200 mm so that the fork
arms are clear off the ground.
– Tilt the lifting mast fully backward.
m
Depending on the truck version
the travel direction switch can
be mounted either
at the SOLOPILOT (14) or
MULTIPILOT (44).

Decelerating the truck
f
The braking behaviour of the truck is mainly dependent on the ground conditions. The
driver must consider this when handling the truck. Carefully decelerate the truck so
that the load does not shift.
When travelling with towed load, longer braking distances must be considered.
– Release foot from accelerator pedal (6) (11/13) and slightly push down brake pedal
(7/12), if necessary (refer also to section 5.4).
4.3 Steering
m
Due to the hydrostatic steering system the steering force to be exerted is very low;
therefore, turn the steering wheel sensitively.
Driving right curves
– Turn the steering wheel clockwise according to the desired steering radius.
Driving left curves
– Turn the steering wheel counter-clockwise according to the desired steering radius.
4.4 Braking
The truck can be braked in four ways:
– Service brake
– Coasting brake
– Reversing brake
– Parking brake
– Spring-loaded brake
Service brake:
– Push down brake pedal (7/12) until
noticeable braking pressure builds up.
A
The service brake decelerates the drive
wheels via multiple disks.
Coasting brake:
– Release foot from accelerator pedal
(6) (11/13). The truck is braked
generatively by means of the drive
current controller.
A
This operating method reduces the
energy consumption.

sensitively.
A
The parking brake mechanically decelerates the drive wheels via multiple disks.
f
The parking brake hold the truck with the maximum permissible load, on clean
surface, at a 15% slope.
Spring-loaded brake
The spring-loaded brake engages approximately 30 seconds (adjustable) after
standstill of the truck and approximately 1 to 15 second(s) after taking away the
weight from the driver seat.
When stopping on a ramp the truck is electrically held in position until the springloaded brake engages.

Transporting loads
f
If the load is stacked high and blocks the view to the front, you must travel backward.
– Sensitively accelerate the truck with
the accelerator pedal (6) and carefully
decelerate it using the brake pedal (7).
Always be alert to brake immediately.
– Adapt the travel speed to the
conditions of the travel paths and the
transported load.
– Watch out for traffic at intersections
and passages.
– In unclear situations a seconds person
should be present to give guiding
instructions.
f

thus recommend signing a maintenance contract with the relevant service location of
the manufacturer.
Lifting and jacking up: When a fork lift truck is to be lifted, the lifting gear must only
be secured to the points specially provided for this purpose. When the truck is to be
jacked up, suitable measures must be taken to prevent the truck from slipping or
tipping over (use of wedges, wooden blocks). Work underneath the raised load lifting
device must only be carried out when the fork is immobilised and supported by a
chain of adequate strength.
f
When work has to be performed under the raised fork or under the jacked up truck,
suitable measures must be taken to prevent any dropping, tilting or slipping of the fork
or truck. When lifting the truck, the instructions contained in chapter “Transportation
and commissioning” have to be observed.
When performing work on the parking brake, the truck must be secured against
moving.

lift truck. Prior to commencing cleaning operations, all safety measures that are
required to prevent sparking (e.g. by short-circuits) have to be taken. For batteryoperated fork lift trucks, the battery plug must be removed. Only weak indraft, weak
compressed air and non-conducting, antistatic brushes must be used for the cleaning
of electric or electronic assemblies.
m
If the fork lift truck is to be cleaned using a water jet or a high-pressure cleaner, all
electric and electronic components must be carefully covered beforehand because
moisture can lead to incorrect functioning.
Cleaning by means of a steam jet is not permitted.
Upon completion of cleaning work, the operations detailed in the section

Work on the electric system: Work on the electric system of the truck must only be
performed by personnel specially trained for such operations. Before commencing
any work on the electric system, all measures required to prevent electric shocks
have to be taken. For battery-operated fork lift trucks, the truck must also be
depowered by removing the battery plug.
Welding operations: To prevent any damage to electric or electronic components,
these have to be removed from the fork lift truck before any welding operations are
undertaken.
Settings: When repairing or replacing hydraulic, electric or electronic components or
assemblies, all truck-specific settings have to be retained.
Tyres: The quality of the tyres greatly affects the stability and the driving behaviour
of the fork lift truck. Changes must only be made following consultations with the
manufacturer. When replacing wheels or tyres, it must be ensured that the fork lift
truck remains level (tyres and wheels must always be replaced in pairs, i.e. left and
right together).
Lift chains: The lift chains wear rapidly if not lubricated. The intervals in the service
checklist apply to normal duty. If requirements are higher (dust, temperature),
lubrication is required more often. The specified chain spray must be used as
specified. The external application of grease does not provide sufficient lubrication.
The chain tensioners must be adjusted in such a manner that they can adapt
themselves to the pulling direction of the chain. Pretensioning the tensioner head
against the mounting is not allowed. A minimum distance of 20 mm must be kept.
Hydraulic hoses: The hoses must be renewed every six years. When replacing
hydraulic components, also renew the hoses in this hydraulic system.
