ROUGH TERRAIN FORKLIFT TRUCK GENERAL SAFETY STANDARDS

STUDY THE OPERATOR/SERVICE MANUALS

The information in this manual provides general instructions for the safe operation and maintenance of your forklift truck. This information is vital and must be clearly understood by the operator and serviceman. Study this manual and the Rough Terrain Forklift Safety Manual (part no. 422494) thoroughly and carefully before operating or servicing your forklift. Contact your dealer or Manitou North America, Inc. if you have any questions concerning your forklift, its operation, service or parts. Keep both manuals in the literature box on the forklift available for reference. If either manual becomes illegible or is missing, contact your dealer for replacements immediately. This manual cannot cover every situation that might result in an accident. It is the responsibility of the operator to always remain alert for potential hazards and be prepared to avoid them!

ADDITIONAL RECOMMENDED LITERATURE:

ANSI / ITSDF B56.6 is the national consensus standard for rough terrain forklift trucks. It contains rules about forklift safety, maintenance, safe operation, training, and supervision. Forklift owners should learn this standard and make it available for their operators, service personnel, and supervisors. These standards can be obtained, free of charge, from the Industrial Truck Standards Development Foundation (ITSDF) on their website at www.itsdf.org. The following references are examples from the standard, addressing forklift operators:

A.) OPERATOR TRAINING QUALIFICATIONS

1.) The user shall ensure that operators understand that safe operation is the operator’s responsibility. The user shall ensure that operators are knowledgeable of, and observe, all safety rules and practices.

2.) Create an effective operator training program centered around user company’s policies, operating conditions, and rough terrain forklift trucks. The program should be presented completely to all new operators and not be condensed for those claiming previous experience.

3.) Information on operator training is available from several sources, including rough terrain forklift truck manufacturers, users, government agencies, etc.

4.) An operator training program should consist of the following: a.) careful selection of the operator, considering physical qualifications, job attitude, and aptitude; b.) emphasis on safety of stock, equipment, operator, and other personnel; c.) citing of rules and why they were formulated; d.) basic fundamentals of rough terrain forklift truck and component design as related to safety, e.g., in.-lb (N-m) loading, mechanical limitations, center of gravity, stability, etc.; e.) introduction to equipment, control locations, and functions. Explain how they work when used properly and problems when used improperly. f.) supervise practice on operating course remote from normal activity and designed to simulate actual operations, e.g., lumber stacking, elevating shingles to the roof, etc.; g.) oral, written, and operational performance tests and evaluations during and at completion of the course; h.) refresher courses, which may be condensed versions of the primary course, and periodic “on job” operator evaluation; i.) understanding of nameplate data and operator instructions and warning information appearing on the rough terrain forklift truck.

B.) GENERAL SAFETY PRACTICES

1.) Rough terrain forklift trucks can cause injury if improperly used or maintained.

2.) Only authorized operators trained to adhere strictly to all operating instructions shall be permitted to oper-

ate rough terrain forklift trucks. Unusual operating conditions may require additional safety precautions, training, and special operating instructions.

3.) Modifications and additions which affect capacity or safe operation shall not be preformed without the man-

ufacturer’s prior written approval. Where such authorization is granted, capacity, operation, and maintenance instruction plates, tags, or decals shall be changed accordingly.

4.) If the rough terrain forklift truck is equipped with front end attachment(s) or optional forks, the user shall see

that the truck is marked to identify the forks or attachment(s), show the approximate weight of the truck and fork or attachment combination, and show the capacity of the truck with forks or attachment(s) at maximum elevation with load laterally centered.

5.) The user shall see that all nameplates and caution and instruction markings are in place and legible.

6.) The user shall consider that changes in load dimension may affect rough terrain forklift truck capacity.

ROUGH TERRAIN FORKLIFT TRUCK GENERAL SAFETY STANDARDS (cont.)

B.) GENERAL SAFETY PRACTICES (cont.)

7.) Where steering can be accomplished with either hand and the steering mechanism is of a type that pre-

vents road reactions from causing the handwheel to spin (power steering or equivalent), steering knobs may be used. When used, steering knobs shall be of a type that can be engaged by the operator’s hand from the top and shall be within the periphery of the steering handwheel.

8.) Experience has shown that rough terrain forklift trucks which comply with stability requirements are stable

when properly operated. However, improper operation, faulty maintenance, or poor housekeeping may contribute to a condition of instability and defeat the purpose of the requirements.

9.) Users shall give consideration to special operating conditions. The amount of forward and rearward tilt to

be used is governed by the application. Although the use of maximum rearward tilt is allowable under certain conditions, such as traveling with the load lowered, the stability of a rough terrain forklift truck as determined by standardized tests does not encompass consideration for excessive tilt at high elevations or the operation of trucks with excessive off-center loads.

10.) Some of the conditions which may affect stability are ground and floor conditions, grade, speed, loading

(rough terrain forklift trucks equipped with attachments behave as partially loaded trucks even when operated without a load on the attachment), dynamic and static forces, improper tire inflation, and the judgement exercised by the operator.

C.) OPERATING SAFETY RULES AND PRACTICES

1.) Safe operation is the responsibility of the operator.

2.) This equipment can be dangerous if not used properly . The operator shall develop safe working habits and

also be aware of hazardous conditions in order to protect himself, other personnel, the rough terrain forklift truck, and other material.

3.) The operator shall be familiar with the operation and function of all controls and instruments before under-

taking to operate the rough terrain forklift truck.

4.) Before operating any rough terrain forklift truck, truck operators shall have read and be familiar with the

operator’s manual for the particular truck being operated.

5.) Before starting to operate the rough terrain forklift truck:

a.) be in operating position and fasten seat belt; b.) place directional controls in neutral; c.) apply brakes; d.) start engine.

6.) Do not start or operate the rough terrain forklift truck, any of its functions, or attachments from any place

other than the designated operator’s position.

7.) Keep hands and feet inside the operator’s designated area or compartment. Do not put any part of the

body outside the operator compartment of the rough terrain forklift truck.

8.) Never put any part of the body into the mast structure or between the mast and the rough terrain forklift

truck.

9.) Never put any part of the body within the reach mechanism of the rough terrain forklift truck or other attach-

ments.

10.) Understand rough terrain forklift limitations and operate the truck in a safe manner so as not to cause injury

to personnel. 1 1.) Do not allow anyone to stand or pass under the elevated portion of any rough terrain forklift truck, whether empty or loaded.

12.) Do not permit passengers to ride on rough terrain forklift trucks.

13.) Check clearance carefully before driving under electrical lines, bridges, etc.

14.) A rough terrain forklift truck is attended when the operator is less than 25 ft (7.6m) from the truck, which

remains in his view.

15.) A rough terrain forklift truck is unattended when the operator is 25ft (7.6m) or more from the truck, which

remains in his view, or whenever the operator leaves the truck and it is not in his view.

16.) Before leaving the operator’s position:

a.) bring rough terrain forklift truck to a complete stop; b.) place directional controls in neutral; c.) apply the parking brake; d.) lower load-engaging means fully, unless supporting an occupied elevated platform; e.) stop the engine; f.) if the rough terrain forklift truck must be left on an incline, block the wheels; g.) fully lower the load-engaging means.

17.) Maintain a safe distance from the edge of ramps, platforms, and other similar working surfaces.

18.) Do no move railroad cars or trailer with a rough terrain forklift truck.

III

ROUGH TERRAIN FORKLIFT TRUCK GENERAL SAFETY STANDARDS (cont.)

C.) OPERATING SAFETY RULES AND PRACTICES (cont.)

19.) Do not use a rough terrain forklift truck for opening or closing railroad car doors.

20.) In areas classified as hazardous, use only rough terrain forklift trucks approved for use in those areas.

21.) Report all accidents involving personnel, building structures, and equipment to the supervisor or as

directed.

22.) Do not add to, or modify, the rough terrain forklift truck.

23.) Do not block access to fire aisles, stairways, and fire equipment.

24.) For rough terrain forklift trucks equipped with a differential lock, the lock should not be engaged when driv-

ing on the road or at high speeds or when turning. If the lock is engaged when turning, there could be loss of steering control.

25.) Observe all traffic regulations including authorized speed limits. Under normal traffic conditions, keep to

the right, maintain a safe distance, based on speed of travel, from the truck ahead; and keep the truck under control at all times.

26.) Yield the right-of-way to pedestrians and emergency vehicles such as ambulances and fire trucks.

27.) Do not pass another truck traveling in the same direction at intersections, blind spots, or at other danger-

ous locations.

28.) Slow down and sound the audible warning device(s) at cross-aisles and other locations where vision is

obstructed.

29.) Cross railroad tracks at an angle wherever possible. Do not park closer than 6 ft (1.8m) to the nearest rail

of a railroad track.

30.) Keep a clear view of the path of travel and observe other traffic, personnel, and safe clearances.

31.) If the load being carried obstructs forward view, travel with the load trailing.

32.) Ascend or descend grades slowly and with caution.

a.) When ascending or descending grades in excess of 5%, loaded rough terrain forklift trucks should be driven with the load upgrade. b.) Unloaded rough terrain forklift trucks should be operated on all grades with the load-engaging means downgrade. c.) On all grades, the load and load-engaging means shall be tilted back, if applicable, and raised only as far as necessary to clear the road surface. d.) Avoid turning, if possible, and use extreme caution on grades, ramps, or inclines; normally

travel straight up or down.

33.) Under all travel conditions, operate the rough terrain forklift truck at a speed that will permit it to be brought

to a stop in a safe manner.

34.) Travel with load-engaging means or load low and, where possible, tilted back. Do not elevate the load

except during stacking.

35.) Make starts, stops, turns, or direction reversals in a smooth manner so as not to shift load and/or overturn

the rough terrain forklift truck.

36.) Do not indulge in stunt driving or horseplay.

37.) Slow down for wet and slippery surfaces.

38.) Before driving over a dockboard or bridge plate, be sure that it is properly secured. Drive carefully and

slowly across the dockboard or bridge plate, and never exceed its rated capacity.

39.) Do not drive rough terrain forklift trucks onto any elevator unless specifically authorized to do so.

Approach elevators slowly, and then enter squarely after the elevator car is properly leveled. Once on the elevator, neutralize the controls, shut off engine, and set brakes. It is advisable that all other personnel leave the elevator before truck is allowed to enter or leave.

40.) Avoid running over loose objects on the roadway surface.

41.) When negotiating turns, reduce speed to a safe level, and turn steering handwheel in a smooth sweeping

motion. Except when maneuvering at a very low speed, turn the steering handwheel at a moderate, even rate.

42.) Use special care when traveling without load, as the risk of lateral overturning is greater.

43.) Improper use of stabilizer controls (if so equipped) could cause rough terrain forklift truck upset. Always

lower the carriage before operating stabilizer controls.

44.) For rough terrain forklift trucks equipped with lateral leveling:

a.) Always level the frame before raising the boom or mast, with or without a load. b.) Lateral leveling should not be used to position an elevated load; instead, lower the load and reposition the rough terrain forklift truck.

45.) Handle only stable or safely arranged loads.

a.) When handling off-center loads which cannot be centered, operate with extra caution. b.) Handle only loads within the capacity of the rough terrain forklift truck. c.) Handle loads exceeding the dimensions used to establish rough terrain forklift truck capacity with extra caution. Stability and maneuverability may be adversely affected.

ROUGH TERRAIN FORKLIFT TRUCK GENERAL SAFETY STANDARDS (cont.)

C.) OPERATING SAFETY RULES AND PRACTICES (cont.)

46.) When attachments are used, extra care shall be taken in securing, manipulating, positioning, and trans-

porting the load. Operate rough terrain forklift trucks equipped with attachments as partially loaded trucks when not handling a load.

47.) Completely engage the load with the load-engaging means. Fork length should be at least two-thirds of

load length. Where tilt is provided, carefully tilt the load backward to stabilize the load. Caution should be used in tilting backward with high or segmented loads.

48.) Use extreme care when tilting load forward or backward, particularly when high tiering. Do not tilt forward

with load-engaging means elevated except to pick up or deposit a load over a rack or stack. When stacking or tiering, use only enough backward tilt to stabilize the load.

49.) The handling of suspended loads by means of a crane arm (boom) or other device can introduce dynam-

ic forces affecting the stability of a rough terrain forklift truck. Grades and sudden starts, stops, and turns can cause the load to swing and create a hazard if not externally stabilized. When handling suspended loads:

a.) do not exceed the truck manufacturer’s capacity of the rough terrain forklift truck as equipped for handling suspended loads. b.) only lift the load vertically and never drag it horizontally; c.) transport the load with the bottom of the load and the mast as low as possible; d.) with load elevated, maneuver the rough terrain forklift truck slowly and cautiously, and only to the extent necessary to permit lowering to the transport position; e.) use tag lines to restrain load swing whenever possible.

50.) At the beginning of each shift and before operating the rough terrain forklift truck, check its condition,

giving special attention to:

a.) tires and their inflation pressure b.) warning devices c.) lights d.) lift and tilt systems, load-engaging means, chains, cables, and limit switches

e.) brakes f.) steering mechanism g.) fuel system(s)

51.) If the rough terrain forklift truck is found to be in need of repair or in any way unsafe, or if it contributes to

an unsafe condition, the matter shall be reported immediately to the user’s designated authority, and the truck shall not be operated until it has been restored to safe operating condition.

52.) If during operation the rough terrain forklift truck becomes unsafe in any way, the matter shall be reported

immediately to the user’s designated authority, and the truck shall not be operated until it has been restored to safe operating condition.

53.) Do not make repairs or adjustments unless specifically authorized to do so.

54.) When refueling, smoking in the area shall not be permitted, the engine shall be stopped, and the opera-

tor shall not be on the rough terrain forklift truck.

55.) Spillage of oil or fuel shall be carefully and completely absorbed or evaporated and fuel tank cap replaced

before restarting engine.

56.) Do not use open flames when checking electrolyte level in storage batteries, liquid level in fuel tanks, or

the condition of LPG fuel lines and connectors.

57.) Do not lift personnel with the forklift. If the forklift must be used to lift people, precautions for the protec-

tion of the personnel must be taken (see ITSDF B56.6, chapter 5.15 Elevating Personnel).

ROUGH TERRAIN FORKLIFT TRUCK GENERAL SAFETY STANDARDS (cont.)

D.) SUSPENDED LOADS

A jib or truss boom should ONLY be used to lift and place loads when the machine is stationary and the frame is level. Transporting suspended loads must ALWAYS be done slowly and cautiously, with the boom and load as low as possible. Use taglines to restrict loads from swinging, to avoid overturn.

The handling of suspended loads by means of a truss boom or other similar device can introduce dynamic forces affecting the stability of the machine that are not considered in the stability criteria of industry test standards. Grades and sudden starts, stops and turns can cause the load to swing and create a hazard.

Guidelines for “Free Rigging / Suspended Loads”

1. DO NOT exceed the rated capacity of the telescopic handler as equipped for handling suspended loads. The weight of the rigging must be included as part of the load.

2. During transport, DO NOT raise the load more than 12 inches (305 mm) above the ground, or raise the boom more than 45 degrees.

3. Only lift the load vertically – NEVER drag it horizontally.

4. Use multiple pickup points on the load when possible. Use taglines to restrain the load from swinging and rotating.

5. Start, travel, turn and stop SLOWLY to prevent the load from swinging. DO NOT exceed walking speed.

6. Inspect rigging before use. Rigging must be in good condition and in the U.S. comply with OSHA regulation §1910.184, “Slings,” or §1926.251, “Rigging equipment for material handling.”

7. Rigging equipment attached to the forks must be secured such that it cannot move either sideways or fore and aft. The load center must not exceed 24 inches (610 mm).

8. DO NOT lift the load with anyone on the load, rigging or lift equipment, and NEVER lift the load over personnel.

9. Beware of the wind, which can cause suspended loads to swing, even with taglines.

10. DO NOT attempt to use frame-leveling to compensate for load swing.

WARNING

U.S. OSHA regulations effective November 8, 2010 (29 CFR Part 1926, Subpart CC - Cranes and Derricks in Construction) include requirements for employers that use powered industrial trucks ("forklifts") configured to hoist (by means of a winch or hook) and move suspended loads horizontally. In par ticular, this regulation applies to any rough-terrain forklift (e.g., "telescopic handler") equipped with a jib or truss boom with a hook (with or without a winch), or a hook assembly attached to the forks. [Note: This regulation is in addition to the OSHA regulation that requires specific forklift operator training: §1910.178(l).]

When a forklift / telescopic handler is configured and used for hoisting, the employer must ensure that:

1. Forklift, lift equipment and rigging have been inspected (each shift, month and year) and are in good, safe condition and properly installed.

2. An operator's manual and applicable load charts are on the forklift.

3. Work zone ground conditions can support the equipment and load. Any hazardous conditions in the work area have been identified, and the operator notified.

4. Equipment is being used within its rated capacity and in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

5. Operator and crew members have been trained in the safe use and operation of the equipment, including how to avoid electrocution.

6. During use, no part of the equipment, load line or load will be within the minimum clearance distance specified by OSHA [10 feet (3.0 m), and more for lines rated over 50 kV] of any energized power line, and any taglines used are non-conductive.

7. In addition, for lift equipment with a rated capacity greater than 2000 lbs. (907 kg), the employer must ensure that:

a.) An accessible fire extinguisher is on the forklift;

b.) Monthly and annual inspections are performed and documented, and records retained (three months for monthly, one year for annual);

c.) Before November 10, 2014, operators must have had the additional training and qualification / certification required by OSHA regulations §1926.1427 and §1926.1430.

Note: Refer to the full text of the OSHA crane regulation (29 CFR Part 1926, Subpart CC) for a detailed description

ROUGH TERRAIN FORKLIFT TRUCK GENERAL SAFETY STANDARDS (cont.)

CONCLUSION:

1.) ATTEND OPERATOR TRAINING CLASSES

The forklift operator must clearly understand all instructions concerning the safe operation of the forklift and all safety rules and regulations of the work site. They must have successfully completed a training coarse in accordance with the Powered Industrial Truck Standard (29 CFR 1910.178) as described by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). They must be qualified as to their visual, hearing, physical, and mental ability to operate the equipment safely. NEVER use drugs or alcohol while operating a forklift! NEVER operate or allow anyone to operate a forklift when mental alertness or coordination is impaired! An operator on prescription or over-the-counter drugs must consult a medical professional regarding any side effects of the medication that may impair their ability to safely operate the forklift.

2.) CREATE A MAINTENANCE PROGRAM

OSHA recommends a maintenance log, listing repairs requested and completed, for each forklift. Also, “lock out tag procedures” should be utilized. If the forklift malfunctions; park it safely, remove the key, tag “Do Not Use”, and report the problem to the proper authority or authorized service personnel immediately.

ROUGH TERRAIN FORKLIFT TRUCK GENERAL SAFETY STANDARDS (cont.)

2.) CREATE A MAINTENANCE PROGRAM (cont.)

For the best forklift performance and operation, a maintenance program is required. Use the hour meter on the instrument panel to keep maintenance properly scheduled (see SECTION TWO - “Servicing Schedule”). For repairs on major components (engine, transmission, etc.), contact your nearest dealer for a Repair Manual. Do not operate a forklift that is damaged or does not function properly. Only authorized personnel may make repairs or adjustments to the lift truck. After repairs, the lift truck must be tested for safe operation before returning to service.

3.) FORKLIFT KNOWLEDGE

Forklift trucks can cause serious injury if improperly used or maintained. Study all of the manuals provided for your forklift model. Learn the locations and meanings of all safety decals. If any decals are illegible or missing, have them replaced immediately. Make sure all safety features provided by the original manufacturer are in place and function properly. Do not operate a forklift with damaged, missing or unsafe components. Have it repaired by authorized service personnel. Learn the functions of all controls, gauges, indicator lights, etc. on the forklift. Know the speed/gear ranges, braking and steering capabilities, load ratings and clearances. When referring to the location of forklift components, the terms “left”, “right”, “front”, and “rear” are related to the operator seated normally, facing forward in the operator’s seat. If you have any questions about the forklift, consult your supervisor. Failure to fully understand or obey safety warnings can result in serious injury or death!

4.) WORK SITE KNOWLEDGE

Before operating on a work site, learn the rules for movement of people, forklifts and all other traffic. Check the size, weight, and condition of the loads you will be expected to handle. Verify that they are properly secured and safe to transport. Learn where the loads are to be placed, planning your route for a safe approach, watching for hazardous conditions. Will a signal man be required to help place the load? Remove any debris which may cause tire damage or rupture. Plan your route around problem areas or have them corrected. Inform the supervisor of any unsafe conditions observed at the site. Examples of hazards: power lines, cables, low clearance structures, garage doors, telephone pole guide lines, fencing, loose lumber, building materials, drop-offs, trenches, rough/soft spots, oil spills, deep mud, steep inclines, railroad tracks, curbs, etc.. NEVER approach power lines, gas lines or other utilities with the forklift! Always verify that local, state/provincial and federal regulations have been met. Report any accidents involving personnel, building structures, and equipment to the supervisor immediately. Always remain alert - conditions are constantly changing at the work site!

TECHNICAL SUPPORT

SAFETY DECALS

The purpose of this chapter is to introduce you to the safety messages, decals, and nameplates found on your forklift truck. The decals are identified by name, part number, location, and a brief description. (The forklift model logos, and other misc. decals not shown, can be found in your forklift parts manual.) The decals illustrated may not be exactly the same as those installed on your forklift; installation of the decals varies depending on the forklift model, series, decal updates, etc.. The size and location of some decals limit the amount of information that can be placed upon it. For this reason, additional detailed information not found on the decals is provided through-out this manual.

Every decal placed on the lift truck is important; they are constant reminders of safety and instructions that should never be taken for granted. Even experienced operators can be seriously injured or killed by ignoring, refusing to enforce, or forgetting to follow safe operating procedures! Do not assume you know all safety issues concerning the decals. Before operating the lift truck; learn the meaning(s) of the decals as described in this manual. If any decal becomes illegible or missing, have it replaced immediately! Always replace decals using the same decal part no., unless otherwise specified by the manufacturer. For replacement decals not found in your parts manual, contact your nearest dealer. If you have any questions, contact your supervisor or nearest dealer for advice before operating your forklift!

INSTRUCTIONS TO THE COMPANY MANAGER

THE SITE

- Proper management of lift truck’s area of travel will reduce the risk of accidents: . ground not unnecessarily uneven or obstructed, . no excessive slopes, . pedestrian traffic controlled, etc.

THE OPERATOR

- Only qualified, authorized personnel can use the lift truck. This authorization is given in writing by the appropriate person in the

establishment with respect to the use of lift trucks and must be carried permanently by the operator.

On the basis of experience, there are a number of possible situations in which operating the lift truck is contra-indicated. Such foreseeable abnormal uses, the main ones being listed below, are strictly forbidden.

- The foreseeable abnormal behaviour resulting from ordinary neglect, but does not result from any wish to put the machinery to any improper use.

- The reflex reactions of a person in the event of a malfunction, incident, fault, etc. during operation of the lift truck.

- Behaviour resulting from application of the «principle of least action» when performing a task.

- For certain machines, the foreseeable behaviour of such persons as: apprentices, teenagers, handicapped persons, trainees tempted to drive a lift truck, operator tempted to operate a truck to win a bet, in competition or for their own personal experience. The person in charge of the equipment must take these criteria into account when assessing whether or not a person will makea suitable driver.

THE LIFT TRUCK

A - THE TRUCK’S SUITABILITY FOR THE JOB

- MANITOU has ensured that this lift truck is suitable for use under the standard operating conditions defined in this operator’s

manual, in accordance to ASME B56.6 - 2002

- Before commissioning, the company manager must make sure that the lift truck is appropriate for the work to be done, and

perform certain tests (in accordance with current legislation).

B - ADAPTATION OF THE LIFT TRUCK TO STANDARD ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS

- In addition to series equipment mounted on your lift truck, many options are available, such as: road lighting, stop lights, flashing

light, reverse lights, reverse buzzer alarm, front light, rear light, light at the jib head, etc… (as model of lift truck).

- The operator must take into account the operating conditions to define the lift truck’s signalling and lighting equipment.

Contact your dealer.

- Take into account climatic and atmospheric conditions of the site of utilisation. . Protection against frost (see: 3 - MAINTENANCE: LUBRICANTS AND FUEL). . Adaptation of lubricants (ask your dealer for information). . I.C. engine filtration (see: 3 - MAINTENANCE: FILTERS CARTRIDGES AND BELTS).

For operation under average climatic conditions, i.e.: between - 15 °C and + 35 °C, correct levels of lubricants in all the circuits are checked in production. For operation under more severe climatic conditions, before starting up, it is necessary to drain all the circuits, then ensure correct levels of lubricants using lubricants properly suited to the relevant ambient temperatures. It is the same for the cooling liquid.

- A lift truck operating in an area without fire extinguishing equipment must be equipped with an individual extinguisher. There are

solutions, consult your dealer.

Your lift truck is designed for outdoor use under normal atmospheric conditions and indoor use in suitably aerated and ventilated premises. It is prohibited to use the lift truck in areas where there is a risk of fire or which are potentially explosive (e.g. Refineries, fuel or gas depots, stores of inflammable products…). For use in these areas, specific equipment is available (ask your dealer for information).

- Our trucks comply with Directive 2004/108/EC concerning electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), and with the corresponding

harmonized norm EN 12895. Their proper operation is no longer guaranteed if they are used within areas in which the electromagnetic fields exceed the limit specified by that norm (10 V/m).

- Directive 2002/44/EC requires company managers to not expose their employees to excessive vibration doses. There is no

recognized code of measurement for comparing the machines of different manufacturers. The actual doses received can therefore be measured only under actual operating conditions at the user's premises.

- The following are some tips for minimizing these vibration doses:

• Select the most suitable lift truck and attachment for the intended use.

• Adapt the seat adjustment to the operator's weight (according to lift truck model) and maintain it in good condition, as well as the cab suspension. Inflate the tires in accordance with recommendations.

• Ensure that the operators adapt their operating speed to suit the conditions on site.

• As far as possible, arrange the site in such a way as to provide a flat running surface and remove obstacles and harmful potholes.

C - MODIFICATION OF THE LIFT TRUCK

- For your safety and that of others, you must not change the structure and settings of the various components used in your lift truck (hydraulic pressure, calibrating limiters, I.C. engine speed, addition of extra equipment, addition of counterweight, unapproved attachments, alarm systems, etc.) yourself. In this event, the manufacturer cannot be held responsible.

D - FRENCH ROAD TRAFFIC RULES

(or see current legislation in other countries)

- Only one certificate of conformity is issued. It must be kept in a safe place.

THE INSTRUCTIONS

- The operator’s manual must always be in good condition and kept in the place provided on the lift truck and in the language used by the operator.

- The operator’s manual and any plates or stickers which are no longer legible or are damaged, must be replaced immediately.

THE MAINTENANCE

- Maintenance or repairs other than those detailed in part: 3 - MAINTENANCE must be carried out by qualified personnel (consult your dealer) and under the necessary safety conditions to maintain the health of the operator and any third party.

Your lift truck must be inspected periodically to ensure that it remains in compliance. The frequency of this inspection is defined by current legislation in the country in which the lift truck is used.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE OPERATOR

PREAMBLE

WHENEVER YOU SEE THIS SYMBOL IT MEANS:

WARNING ! BE CAREFUL ! YOUR SAFETY OR THE SAFETY OF THE LIFT TRUCK IS AT RISK.

The risk of accident while using, servicing or repairing your lift truck can be restricted if you follow the safety instructions and safety measures detailed in these instruction.

- Only the operations and manœuvres described in these operator’s manual must be performed. The manufacturer cannot predict all possible risky situations. Consequently, the safety instructions given in the operator’s manual and on the lift truck itself are not exhaustive.

1-8

1-9

C - ENVIRONMENT

- Comply with site safety regulations.

- If you have to use the lift truck in a dark area or at night, make sure it is equipped with working lights.

- During handling operations, make sure that no one is in the way of the lift truck and its load.

- Do not allow anybody to come near the working area of the lift truck or pass beneath an elevated load.

- When using the lift truck on a transverse slope, before lifting the jib, follow the instructions given in the paragraph: INSTRUCTIONS FOR HANDLING A LOAD: D - TRANSVERSE ATTITUDE OF THE LIFT TRUCK.

- Travelling on a longitudinal slope:

• Drive and brake gently.

• Moving without load: Forks or attachment facing downhill.

• Moving with load: Forks or attachment facing uphill.

- Take into account the lift truck’s dimensions and its load before trying to negotiate a narrow or low passageway.

- Never move onto a loading platform without having first checked:

• That it is suitably positioned and made fast.

• That the unit to which it is connected (wagon, lorry, etc.) will not shift.

• That this platform is prescribed for the total weight of the lift truck to be loaded.

• That this platform is prescribed for the size of the lift truck.

- Never move onto a foot bridge, floor or freight lift, without being certain that they are prescribed for the weight and size of the lift truck to be loaded and without having checked that they are in sound working order.

- Be careful in the area of loading bays, trenches, scaffolding, soft land and manholes.

- Make sure the ground is stable and firm under the wheels and/or stabilizers before lifting or removing the load. If necessary, add sufficient wedging under the stabilizers.

- Make sure that the scaffolding, loading platform, pilings or ground is capable of bearing the load.

- Never stack loads on uneven ground, they may tip over.

If the load or the attachment must remain above a structure for a long time, there is the risk that it will rest on the structure because of the jib descending owing to the oil in the cylinders cooling down. To eliminate this risk:

- Regularly check the distance between the load or the attachment and the structure and readjust this if necessary.

- If possible use the lift truck at an oil temperature as close as possible to ambient temperature.

- In the case of work near aerial lines, ensure that the safety distance is sufficient between the working area of the lift truck and the aerial line.

You must consult your local electrical agency. You could be electrocuted or seriously injured if you operate or park the lift truck too close to power cables.

In the event of high winds, do not carry out handling work that jeopardizes the stability of the lift truck and its load, particularly if the load catches the wind badly.

D - VISIBILITY

- The safety of people within the lift truck’s working area, as well as that of the lift truck itself and the operator are depend on good operator visibility of the lift truck’s immediate vicinity in all situations and at all times.

- This lift truck has been designed to allow good operator visibility (direct or indirect by means of rear-view mirrors) of the immediate vicinity of the lift truck while traveling with no load and with the jib in the transport position.

- Special precautions must be taken if the size of the load restricts visibility towards the front:

- moving in reverse,

- site layout,

- assisted by a person directing the maneuver (while standing outside the truck’s area of travel), making sure to keep this person clearly in view at all times.

- in any case, avoid reversing over long distances.

- Certain special accessories may require the truck to travel with the jib in the raised position. In such cases, visibility on the right hand side is restricted, and special precautions must be taken:

- site layout,

- assisted by a person directing the maneuver (while standing outside the truck’s area of travel).

- If visibility of your road is inadequate, ask someone to assist by directing the maneuver (while standing outside the truck’s area of travel), making sure to keep this person clearly in view at all times.

- Keep all components affecting visibility in a clean, properly adjusted state and in good working order (e.g. windscreens, windows, windscreen wipers, windscreen washers, driving and work lights, rear-view mirrors).

E - STARTING THE LIFT TRUCK

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

The lift truck must only be started up or maneuvered when the operator is sitting in the driver’s cab, with his seat belt adjusted and fastened.

- Never tr y to start the lift truck by pushing or towing it. Such operation may cause severe damage to the transmission. If necessary, to tow the lift truck in an emergency, the transmission must be placed in the neutral position (see: 3 - MAINTENANCE: G OCCASIONAL MAINTENANCE).

- If using an emergency batter y for start-up, use a battery with the same characteristics and respect battery polarity when connecting it. Connect at first the positive terminals before the negative terminals.

Failure to respect polarity between batteries can cause serious damage to the electrical circuit. The electrolyte in the battery may produce an explosive gas. Avoid flames and generation of sparks close to the batteries. Never disconnect a battery while it is charging.

INSTRUCTIONS

- Check the closing and locking of the hood(s).

- Check that the cab door is closed.

- Check that the forward/reverse selector is in neutral.

- Turn the ignition key to the position I to activate the electrical system and the preheat.

- Whenever you switch on the lift truck, per form the automatic check on the longitudinal stability limiter and warning device system (see: 2 - DESCRIPTION: INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS). Do not use the lift truck if it does not conform to the regulations.

- Check the fuel level on the indicator.

- Turn the ignition key fully: the I.C. engine should then start. Release the ignition key and let the I.C. engine run at idle.

- Do not engage the starter motor for more than 15 seconds and carry out the preheating between unsuccessful attempts.

- Make sure all the signal lights on the control instrument panel are off.

- Check all control instruments when the I.C. engine is warm and at regular intervals during use, so as to quickly detect any faults and to be able to correct them without any delay.

- If an instrument does not show the correct display, stop the I.C. engine and immediately carry out the necessary operations.

F - DRIVING THE LIFT TRUCK

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Operators’ attention is drawn to the risks involved in using the lift truck, in particular:

- Risk of losing control.

- Risk of losing lateral and frontal stability of the lift truck. The operator must remain in control of the lift truck. In the event of the lift truck overturning, do not try to leave the cabin during the incident. YOUR BEST PROTECTION IS TO STAY FASTENED IN THE CABIN.

- Observe the company’s traffic regulations or, by default, the public highway code.

- Do not carry out operations which exceed the capacities of your lift truck or attachments.

- Always drive the lift truck with the forks or attachment to the transpor t position, i.e. at 300 mm from the ground, the jib retracted and the carriage sloping backwards.

- Only carry loads which are balanced and properly anchored to avoid any risk of a load falling off.

- Ensure that palettes, cases, etc, are in good order and suitable for the load to be lifted.

- Familiarise yourself with the lift truck on the terrain where it will be used.

- Ensure that the service brakes are working properly.

- The loaded lift truck must not travel at speeds in excess of 12 km/h.

- Drive smoothly at an appropriate speed for the operating conditions (land configuration, load on the lift truck).

- Do not use the hydraulic jib controls when the lift truck is moving.

- Never change the steering mode whilst driving.

- Do not manoeuvre the lift truck with the jib in the raised position unless under exceptional circumstances and then with extreme caution, at very low speed and using gentle braking. Ensure that visibility is adequate.

- Take bends slowly.

- In all circumstances make sure you are in control of your speed.

- On damp, slippery or uneven terrain, drive slowly.

- Brake gently, never abruptly.

- Only use the lift truck’s forward/reverse selector from a stationar y position and never do so abruptly.

- Do not drive with your foot on the brake pedal.

- Always remember that hydrostatic type steering is extremely sensitive to movement of the steering wheel, so turn it gently and not jerkily.

- Never leave the I.C. engine on when the lift truck is unattended.

- Do not leave the cab when the lift truck has a raised load.

- Look where you are going and always make sure you have good visibility along the route.

1-10

1-11

- Use the rear-view mirrors frequently.

- Drive round obstacles.

- Never drive on the edge of a ditch or steep slope.

- It is dangerous to use two lift trucks simultaneously to handle heavy or voluminous loads, since this operation requires particular precautions to be taken. It must only be used exceptionally and after risk analysis.

- The ignition switch has an emergency stop mechanism in case of an operating anomaly occurring in the case of lift trucks not fitted with a punch-operated cut-out.

INSTRUCTIONS

- Always drive the lift truck with the forks or attachment to the transpor t position, i.e. at 300 mm from the ground, the jib retracted and the carriage sloping backwards.

- For lift trucks with gearboxes, use the recommended gear (see: 2 - DESCRIPTION: INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS).

- Select the steering mode appropriate for its use and/or working conditions (see: 2 - DESCRIPTION: INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS) (as model of lift truck).

- Release the parking brake.

- Shift the forward/reverse selector to the selected direction of travel and accelerate gradually until the lift truck moves off.

G - STOPPING THE LIFT TRUCK

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

- Never leave the ignition key in the lift truck during the operator’s absence.

- When the lift truck is stationar y, or if the operator has to leave his cab (even for a moment), place the forks or attachment on the ground, apply the parking brake and place the forward/reverse selector in neutral.

- Make sure that the lift truck is not stopped in any position that will inter fere with the traffic flow and at less than one meter from the track of a railway.

- In the event of prolonged parking on a site, protect the lift truck from bad weather, particularly from frost (check the level of antifreeze), close and lock all the lift truck accesses (doors, windows, cowls…).

INSTRUCTIONS

- Park the lift truck on flat ground or on an incline lower than 15 %.

- Set the forward/reverse selector to neutral.

- Apply the parking brake.

- For lift trucks with gearboxes, place the gear lever in neutral.

- Retract entirely the jib.

- Lower the forks or attachment to rest on the ground.

- When using an attachment with a grab or jaws, or a bucket with hydraulic opening, close the attachment fully.

- Before stopping the lift truck after a long working period, leave the I.C. engine idling for a few moments, to allow the coolant liquid and oil to lower the temperature of the I.C. engine and transmission. Do not forget this precaution, in the event of frequent stops or warm stalling of the I.C. engine, or else the temperature of certain parts will rise significantly due to the stopping of the cooling system, with the risk of badly damaging such parts.

- Stop the I.C. engine with the ignition switch.

- Remove the ignition key.

- Lock all the accesses to the lift truck (doors, windows, cowls…).

H - DRIVING THE LIFT TRUCK ON THE PUBLIC HIGHWAY

(or see current legislation in other countries)

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

- The lift truck must comply with current road legislation. If necessary, there are optional solutions. Contact your dealer.

INSTRUCTIONS

- Make sure the revolving light is in place, switch it on and verify its operation.

- Make sure the lights, indicators and windscreen wipers are working properly.

- Switch off the working headlights if the lift truck is fitted with them.

- Select the steering mode “HIGHWAY TRAFFIC” (as model of lift truck) (see: 2 - DESCRIPTION: INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS).

- Retract entirely the jib and put the attachment at 300 mm from the ground.

- Place the slope correctors in the central position, i.e. the transverse shaft of the axles parallel to the chassis (as model of lift truck).

- Lift up the stabilizers to the maximum and turn the blocks inwards (as model of lift truck).

Never move in neutral (forward/reverse selector or gear lever in neutral or transmission cut-off button pressed) to preserve the lift truck engine brake. Failure to respect this instruction on a slope will lead to excessive speed which may make the lift truck uncontrollable (steering, brakes) and cause serious mechanical damage.

500 mm

INSTRUCTIONS FOR HANDLING A LOAD

A - CHOICE OF ATTACHMENTS

- Only attachments approved by MANITOU can be used on its lift trucks.

- Make sure the attachment is appropriate for the work to be done (see: 4 - ADAPTABLE ATTACHMENTS IN OPTION ON THE RANGE).

- If the lift truck is equipped with the Single side-shift carriage OPTION (TSDL), use only the authorised attachments (see: 4 - ADAPTABLE ATTACHMENTS IN OPTION ON THE RANGE).

- Make sure the attachment is correctly installed and locked onto the lift truck carriage.

- Make sure that your lift truck attachments work properly.

- Comply with the load chart limits for the lift truck for the attachment used.

- Do not exceed the rated capacity of the attachment.

- Never lift a load in a sling without the attachment provided for the purpose, as the sling risks to slip (see: INSTRUCTIONS FOR HANDLING A LOAD: H - TAKING UP AND LAYING DOWN A SUSPENDED LOAD).

B - MASS OF LOAD AND CENTRE OF GRAVITY

- Before taking up a load, you must know its mass and its centre of gravity.

- The load chart for your lift truck is valid for a load in which the longitudinal position of the centre of gravity is 500 mm from the base of the forks (fig. B1). For a higher centre of gravity, contact your dealer.

- For irregular loads, determine the transverse centre of gravity before any movement (fig. B2) and set it in the longitudinal axis of the lift truck.

It is forbidden to move a load heavier than the effective capacity defined on the lift truck load chart.

For loads with a moving centre of gravity (e.g. liquids), take account of the variations in the centre of gravity in order to determine the load to be handled and be vigilant and take extra care to limit these variations as far as possible.

C - LONGITUDINAL STABILITY LIMITER AND WARNING DEVICE

This device gives an indication of the longitudinal stability of the lift truck, and limits hydraulic movements in order to ensure this stability, at least under the following operating conditions:

• when the lift truck is at a standstill,

• when the lift truck is on firm, stable and consolidated ground,

• when the lift truck is performing handling and placing operations.

- Move the jib ver y carefully when approaching the authorized load limit (see: 2 - DESCRIPTION: INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS).

- Always watch this device during handling operations.

- In the event that "AGGRAVATING" hydraulic movements are cut-off, only per form de-aggravating hydraulic movements in the following order (fig. C): if necessary, raise the jib (1), retract the jib as far as possible (2) and lower the jib (3) to set down the load.

The instrument reading may be erroneous when the steering is at its maximum limit or the rear axle oscillated to its limit. Before lifting a load, make sure that the lift truck is not in either of these situations.

1-14

1-15

D - TRANSVERSE ATTITUDE OF THE LIFT TRUCK

Depending on the model of lift truck

The transverse attitude is the transverse slope of the chassis with respect to the horizontal. Raising the jib reduces the lift truck’s lateral stability. The transverse attitude must be set with the jib in down position as follows:

1 - LIFT TRUCK WITHOUT SLOPE CORRECTOR USED ON TYRES

- Position the lift truck so that the bubble in the level is between the two lines (see: 2 DESCRIPTION: INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS).

2 - LIFT TRUCK WITH SLOPE CORRECTOR USED ON TYRES

- Correct the slope using the hydraulic control and verify the horizontality via the level. The

bubble in the level must be between the two lines (see: 2 - DESCRIPTION: INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS).

3 - LIFT TRUCK USED ON STABILIZERS

- Set the two stabilizers on the ground and raise the two front wheels of the lift truck (fig. D1).

- Correct the slope using the stabilizers (fig. D2) and make sure the truck is horizontal by checking the level. The bubble of the level must be between the two lines (see: 2

- DESCRIPTION: INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS). In this position, the two front wheels must be off the ground.

E - TAKING UP A LOAD ON THE GROUND

- Approach the lift truck perpendicular to the load, with the jib retracted and the forks in a horizontal position (fig. E1).

- Adjust the fork spread and centering in connection with the load (fig. E2) (optional solutions exist, consult your dealer).

- Never lift a load with a single fork.

Beware of the risks of trapping or squashing limbs when manually adjusting the forks.

- Move the lift truck forward slowly (1) and bring the forks to stop in front of the load (fig. E3), if necessary, slightly lift the jib (2) while taking up the load.

- Bring the load into the transport position.

- Tilt the load far enough backwards to ensure stability (loss of load on braking or going downhill).

FOR A NON-PALLETIZED LOAD

- Tilt the carriage (1) for wards and move the lift truck slowly forwards (2), to inser t the fork under the load (fig. E4) (block the load if necessary).

- Continue to move the lift truck forwards (2) tilting the carriage (3) (fig. E4) backwards to position the load on the forks and check the load’s longitudinal and lateral stability.

F - TAKING UP AND LAYING A HIGH LOAD ON TYRES

You must not raise the jib if you have not checked the transverse attitude of the lift truck (see: INSTRUCTIONS FOR HANDLING A LOAD: D - TRANSVERSE ATTITUDE OF THE LIFT TRUCK).

REMINDER: Make sure that the following operations can be performed with good visibility

(see: OPERATIONS INSTRUCTIONS UNLADEN AND LADEN: D - VISIBILITY).

TAKING UP A HIGH LOAD ON TYRES

- Ensure that the forks will easily pass under the load.

- Lift and extend the jib (1) (2) until the forks are level with the load, moving the lift truck (3) forward if necessary (fig. F1), moving very slowly and carefully.

- Always think about keeping the distance necessar y to fit the forks under the load, between the pile and the lift truck (fig. F1) and use the shortest possible length of jib.

- Stop the forks in front of the load by alternately extending and retracting the jib (1) or, if necessary, moving the lift truck forward (2) (fig. F2). Put the handbrake on and set the forward/reverse selector to neutral.

- Slightly lift the load (1) and incline the carriage (2) backwards to stabilize the load (fig. F3).

- Tilt the load sufficiently backwards to ensure its stability.

- Watch the longitudinal stability limiter and warning device (see: INSTRUCTIONS FOR HANDLING A LOAD: C - LONGITUDINAL STABILITY LIMITER AND WARNING DEVICE). If it is overloaded, replace the load in the place from which it was taken.

- If possible lower the load without shifting the lift truck. Lift the jib (1) to release the load, retract (2) and lower the jib (3) to bring the load into the transport position (fig. F4).

- If this is not possible, back up the lift truck (1), manoeuvring very gently and carefully to release the load. Retract (2) and lower the jib (3) to bring the load into the transport position (fig. F5).

G - TAKING UP AND LAYING A HIGH LOAD ON STABILIZERS

Depending on the model of lift truck

You must not raise the jib if you have not checked the transverse attitude of the lift truck (see: INSTRUCTIONS FOR HANDLING A LOAD: D - TRANSVERSE ATTITUDE OF THE LIFT TRUCK).

REMINDER: Make sure that the following operations can be performed with good visibility (see: OPERATIONS INSTRUCTIONS UNLADEN

AND LADEN: D - VISIBILITY).

USING THE STABILIZERS The stabilizers are used to optimise the lift truck’s lifting per formances (see: 2 - DESCRIPTION: INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS).

POSITION THE STABILIZERS WITH THE FORKS IN TRANSPORT POSITION (UNLADEN AND LADEN)

- Set the forks in transport position in front of the elevation.

- Stay far enough away to have room for the jib to be raised.

- Put the handbrake on and put the gearshift lever into neutral.

- Set the two stabilizers on the ground and lift the two front wheels of the lift truck (fig. G1), while maintaining its transverse stability.

RAISE THE STABILIZERS WITH THE FORKS IN TRANSPORT POSITION (UNLADEN AND LADEN)

- Raise both stabilizers fully and at the same time.

SETTING THE STABILIZERS WITH THE JIB UP (UNLADEN AND LADEN)

This operation must be exceptional and performed with great care.

- Raise the jib and retract the telescopes completely.

- Set the lift truck in position in front of the elevation (fig. G2) moving ver y slowly and carefully.

- Put the handbrake on and put the gearshift lever into neutral.

- Move the stabilizers very slowly and gradually as soon as they are close to the ground or in contact with it.

- Lower the two stabilizers and lift the two front wheels of the lift truck (fig. G3). During this operation, transverse attitude must be permanently maintained: the bubble in the level must be kept between the two lines.

SETTING THE STABILIZERS WITH THE JIB UP (UNLADEN AND LADEN)

This operation must be exceptional and performed with great care.

- Keep the jib up and retract the telescopes completely (fig. G3).

- Move the stabilizers very slowly and gradually as soon as they are in contact with the ground and when they leave the ground. During this operation, the transverse attitude must be permanently maintained: the bubble in the level must be kept between the two lines.

- Raise both stabilizers completely.

- Release the parking brake and reverse the lift truck (1) ver y slowly and carefully, to release it and lower the forks (2) into transport position (fig. G4).

1-18

1-19

TAKING UP A HIGH LOAD ON STABILIZERS

- Make sure the forks will fit easily under the load.

- Check the position of the lift truck with respect to the load and make a test run, if necessary, without taking the load.

- Raise and extend the jib (1) (2) until the forks are at the level of the load (fig. G5).

- Block the forks in front of the load by alternately using the controls to extend and lower the jib (1) (fig. G6).

- Lift the load slightly (1) and tilt the carriage (2) backwards to stabilise the load (fig. G7).

- Monitor the longitudinal stability limiter and warning device (see: INSTRUCTIONS FOR HANDLING A LOAD: C - LONGITUDINAL STABILITY LIMITER AND WARNING DEVICE). If it is overloaded, set the load down in the place from where it was taken.

- If possible lower the load without moving the lift truck. Raise the jib (1) to release the load, retract (2) and lower the jib (3) to set the load into transport position (fig. G8).

LAYING A HIGH LOAD ON STABILIZERS

- Raise and extend the jib (1) (2) until the load is above the elevation (fig. G9), while monitoring the longitudinal stability limiter and warning device (see: INSTRUCTIONS FOR HANDLING A LOAD: C - LONGITUDINAL STABILITY LIMITER AND WARNING DEVICE).

- Position the load horizontally and release it by lowering and retracting the jib (1) (2) to position the load correctly (fig. G10).

- Release the forks by alternating retracting and raising the jib (3) (fig. G11).

- If possible, set the jib in transport position without moving the lift truck.

G10

G11

H - TAKING UP AND LAYING DOWN A SUSPENDED LOAD

WARNING: Failure to follow the above instructions may lead the lift truck to loose stability and overturn.

MUST be used with a lift truck equipped with an operational hydraulic movement cut-out device.

CONDITIONS OF USE

- The length of the sling or the chain shall be as short as possible to limit swinging of the load.

- Lift the load vertically along its axis, never by pulling sideways or lengthways.

HANDLING WITHOUT MOVING THE LIFT TRUCK

- Whether on stabilisers or on tyres, the lateral attitude must not exceed 1 % and the longitudinal attitude must not exceed 5%, the bubble of the level must be held at “0”.

- Ensure that the wind speed is not higher than 10 m/s.

- Ensure that there is no one between the load and the lift truck.

I - TRAVELLING WITH A SUSPENDED LOAD

- Before moving, inspect the terrain in order to avoid excessive slopes and cross-falls, bumps and potholes, or soft ground.

- Ensure that the wind speed is not higher than 10 m/s.

- The lift truck must not travel at more than 0.4 m/s (1.5 km/h, i.e., one quar ter walking speed).

- Drive and stop the lift truck gently and smoothly to minimise swinging of the load.

- Carr y the load a few centimetres above the ground (max. 30 cm) the shortest possible jib length. Do not exceed the offset indicated on the load chart. If the load begins to swing excessively, do not hesitate to stop and lower the jib to set down the load.

- Before moving the lift truck, check the longitudinal stability limiter and warning device (see: 2 - DESCRIPTION: INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS), only the green LEDs and possibly the yellow LEDs should be lit.

- During transport, the lift truck operator must be assisted by a person on the ground (standing a minimum of 3 m from the load), who will limit swinging of the load using a bar or a rope. Ensure that this person is always clearly in view.

- The lateral attitude must not exceed 5%, the bubble in the level must be kept between the two “MAX.” marks

- The longitudinal attitude must not exceed 15%, with the load facing uphill, and 10%, with the load facing downhill.

- The jib angle must not exceed 45°.

- If the first red LED of the longitudinal stability limiter and warning device (see: 2 - DESCRIPTION: INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS) comes on while travelling, gently bring the lift truck to a stop and stabilise the load. Retract the telescope to reduce the offset of the load.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING THE RADIO-CONTROL

For lift trucks with RC radio control

HOW TO USE THE RADIO-CONTROL

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

- This radio-control consists of electronic and mechanical safety elements. It cannot receive commands from another transmitter because the internal encoding is unique to each radio-control.

If it is used improperly or incorrectly, there is a risk of danger to:

- The physical and mental health of the user or others.

- The lift truck and other neighbouring items.

Everyone working with this radio-control:

- Must be qualified in line with current regulations and therefore appropriately trained.

- Must follow this instruction manual as closely as possible.

- The system is used to control the lift truck remotely via radio waves. Commands are also transmitted if the lift truck is out of sight (behind an obstacle or a building for example), this is why:

• After stopping the truck and removing the key button (only possible when it is stationar y), always place the transmitter in a safe, dry place.

• Before per forming any installation, servicing or repair work, always switch of f power sources (in particular, electric welding devices and electric head units on hydraulic distributors must be disconnected at each section).

• Never remove or alter the safety devices (such as the hand-guard frame, key, emergency stop button, etc.).

Never drive the lift truck if it is not continuously and perfectly within view of the operator!

- Before leaving the transmitter, the operator must make sure that it cannot be used by an unauthorized third person: either by removing the key button from the transmitter or locking it in an inaccessible place.

- The user must ensure that the instruction manual is accessible at all times and that operators have read and understood it.

INSTRUCTIONS

- Take up position in a stable place with no risk of slipping.

- Before using the transmitter, make sure there is nobody within the working area.

- Only use the transmitter with its carrying device or installed correctly on the platform.

When you remove the transmitter, remove the accumulator and key button so that it cannot be used accidentally or deliberately by anyone else.

PROTECTIVE DEVICES

- The lift truck will be immobilised within 450 milliseconds (approx. 0.5 second) at most:

• If the transmitter emergency stop button (50 milliseconds), or the one on the lift is pressed.

• If the transmission distance of the radio waves is exceeded.

• If the transmitter is faulty.

• If an interfering radio signal is received from elsewhere.

• If the accumulator is removed from its housing in the transmitter.

• If the accumulator reaches the end of its autonomy.

• If the transmitter is switched off by turning the key button to stop.

- These protective devices are provided for the safety of personnel and proper ty and must never be altered, removed or bypassed in any way whatsoever!

- The hand-guard frame prevents external action on a manipulator (if the transmitter falls, for example, or if the operator leans on a guard-rail).

- An electronic safety device prevents radio transmission from being initiated if the manipulators are not mechanically and electrically at rest and if the internal combustion engine speed selector is not set to idle.

In an emergency, press the transmitter emergency stop button immediately ; then follow the manual’s instructions (see: 2 - DESCRIPTION: INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS).

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS OF THE LIFT TRUCK

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

- Ensure the area is sufficiently ventilated before starting the lift truck.

- Wear clothes suitable for the maintenance of the lift truck, avoid wearing jewellery and loose clothes. Tie and protect your hair, if necessary.

- Stop the I.C. engine and remove the ignition key, when an intervention is necessary.

- Read the operator’s manual carefully.

- Carry out all repairs immediately, even if the repairs concerned are minor.

- Repair all leaks immediately, even if the leak concerned is minor.

- Make sure that the disposal of process materials and of spare parts is carried out in total safety and in a ecological way.

- Be careful of the risk of burning and splashing (exhaust, radiator, I.C. engine, etc.).

MAINTENANCE

- Per form the periodic service (see: 3 - MAINTENANCE) to keep your lift truck in good working conditions. Failure to perform the periodic service may cancel the contractual guarantee.

MAINTENANCE LOGBOOK

- The maintenance operations carried out in accordance with the recommendations given in par t: 3 - MAINTENANCE and the other inspection, servicing or repair operations or modifications performed on the lift truck or its attachments shall be recorded in a maintenance logbook. The entry for each operation shall include details of the date of the works, the names of the individuals or companies having performed them, the type of operation and its frequency, if applicable. The part numbers of any lift truck items replaced shall also be indicated.

LUBRICANT AND FUEL LEVELS

- Use the recommended lubricants (never use contaminated lubricants).

- Do not fill the fuel tank when the I.C. engine is running.

- Only fill up the fuel tank in areas specified for this purpose.

- Do not fill the fuel tank to the maximum level.

- Do not smoke or approach the lift truck with a flame, when the fuel tank is open or is being filled.

HYDRAULIC

- Any work on the load handling hydraulic circuit is forbidden except for the operations described in part: 3 - MAINTENANCE.

- Do not attempt to loosen unions, hoses or any hydraulic component with the circuit under pressure.

BALANCING VALVE: It is dangerous to change the setting and remove the balancing valves or safety valves which may be fitted to your lift truck cylinders. These operations must only be performed by approved personnel (consult your dealer).

The HYDRAULIC ACCUMULATORS that may be fitted on your lift truck are pressurized units. Removing these accumulators and their pipework is a dangerous operation and must only be performed by approved personnel (consult your dealer).

ELECTRICITY

- Do not short-circuit the starter relay to start the IC engine. If the forward/reverse selector is not in neutral and the parking brake is not engaged, the lift truck may suddenly star t to move.

- Do not drop metallic items on the battery.

- Disconnect the battery before working on the electrical circuit.

1-24

1-25

WELDING

- Disconnect the battery before any welding operations on the lift truck.

- When carr ying out electric welding work on the lift truck, connect the negative cable from the equipment directly to the part being welded, so as to avoid high tension current passing through the alternator.

- Never carry out welding or work which gives off heat on an assembled tyre. The heat would increase the pressure which could cause the tyre to explode.

- If the lift truck is equipped with an electronic control unit, disconnect this before starting to weld, to avoid the risk of causing irreparable damage to electronic components.

WASHING THE LIFT TRUCK

- Clean the lift truck or at least the area concerned before any intervention.

- Remember to close and lock all accesses to the lift truck (doors, windows, cowls…).

- During washing, avoid the articulations and electrical components and connections.

- If necessary, protect against penetration of water, steam or cleaning agents, components susceptible of being damaged, particularly electrical components and connections and the injection pump.

- Clean the lift truck of any fuel, oil or grease trace.

FOR ANY INTERVENTION OTHER THAN REGULAR MAINTENANCE, CONSULT YOUR DEALER.

13 - ACCELERATOR PEDAL

14 - SERVICE BRAKE PEDAL AND TRANSMISSION CUT-OFF

The pedal applies on the front and rear wheels by an hydraulic brake system, and allows the lift truck to be slowed down and stopped. Depending on the position of the transmission cut-off switch, it enables the free travel to cut off transmission (see: 2

- DESCRIPTION: 5 - SWITCHES).

15 - GEAR LEVER AND TRANSMISSION CUT-OFF

4 2

In order to change speeds, it is necessary to cut the transmission by pressing the button 1 on the lever.

1st gear: to the right, backwards. 2nd gear: to the right, forwards. 3rd gear: to the left, backwards. 4th gear: to the left, forwards.

USING THE GEARS ON THE GEAR BOX

- On these lift trucks with a torque conver ter, it is not necessary to automatically start up in 1st speed and progress up the gears.

The choice of transmission gear ratio should be made carefully according to the nature of the work being carried out. A poor choice may result in the extremely rapid rise of the transmission oil temperature through excessive slipping of the converter, which could lead to serious damage to the transmission (it is essential to stop and change the working conditions if the transmission oil temperature indicator light comes on). This poor choice may also result in a reduction in the lift truck’s performance in forward gear. When the forward force increases, the forward speed in the r gear (for example, in 3rd gear) may be lower than the forward speed that could be obtained with the r-1 gear (in 2nd instead of 3rd).

In general, we would advise you to use the following gears according to the nature of the work being carried out.

• ON THE ROAD:

Set off in 3rd gear and go up to 4th if the conditions and state of the road permit it. In hilly areas, set off in 2nd gear and go up to 3rd if the conditions and state of the road permit it.

• WITH A TRAILER ON THE ROAD:

Set off in 2nd gear and go up to 3rd if the conditions and state of the road permit it.

• HANDLING:

3rd gear. 2nd gear in restricted spaces.

• LOADING (reclaiming with bucket, manure fork, etc.):

2nd gear.

• EARTH MOVING:

1st gear.

3 1

2-26

15 - GEAR SELECTOR

The gear is selected by means of buttons 1 and 2. The selected gear is indicated on the dial 3. There are 6 forward and 3 reverse gears available.

NOTE: When reversing, the selected gear remains the same, except for the 4th, 5th and

6th gears in forward motion which become 3rd gear in reverse motion.

USING THE GEARS ON THE GEAR BOX

- On these lift trucks with a torque converter, it is not necessary to automatically star t up in 1st speed and progress up the gears.

In general, we would advise you to use the following gears according to the nature of the work being carried out.

• ON THE ROAD:

Set off in 4th gear and go up to 5th and 6th if the conditions and state of the road permit it. In hilly areas, set off in 3rd gear and go up to 4th and 5th (the use of 6th gear is prohibited) if the conditions and state of the road permit it.

• WITH A TRAILER ON THE ROAD:

Set off in 2nd gear and go up through the gears to 5th if the conditions and state of the road permit it.

• HANDLING:

3rd, 4th or 5th gear (the use of the 6th gear is prohibited). 2nd gear in restricted spaces.

• LOADING (reclaiming with bucket, manure fork, etc.):

2nd gear.

• EARTH MOVING:

1st gear.

SWITCH FOR DISABLING 6TH GEAR

Switch 4 serves to enable or disable 6th gear and must be used when required for the task to be performed. When the lamp is lit, 6th gear is disabled.

This device must be used during handling, when towing a trailer and in hilly areas, to reduce the risk of the gear box overheating. Disabling 6th gear also guarantees that the speed limit will not be exceeded when towing a trailer.

16 - PARKING BRAKE LEVER

To prevent accidental loosening or release, the lever is fitted with safety locking.

- To apply the parking brake, pull the lever backwards (position A).

- To loosen the parking brake, release and push the lever forwards (position B).

2-27

17 - FORWARD/NEUTRAL/REVERSE GEAR SELECTION

FORWARD: Push the knob forward (position A). REVERSE: Pull the knob backwards (position B).

NEUTRAL: The knob must be in the intermediate position to star t the lift truck (position

C).

When operating this control, the lift truck should be travelling at slow speed and not accelerating.

NOTE: The reverse lights indicate that the lift truck is running in reverse motion. An

OPTIONAL audible reversing alarm can also be fitted.

SAFETY FOR MOVING THE LIFT TRUCK

Authorisation to move the lift truck is controlled by an electronic unit. The operator must observe the following sequence to move the truck forwards or backwards:

1 - sit down correctly in the driver’s seat, 2 - release the parking brake, 3 - engage forward or reverse movement.

To stop the lift truck, he must observe the following sequence:

1 - Set the forward/reverse selector to neutral, 2 - engage the parking brake, 3 - get out of the lift truck.

NOTE: If the operator leaves the driving cab with forward or reverse engaged, a continuous alarm will sound. While this alarm

sounds, the operator can simply sit back in the seat and continue advancing or reversing. If the alarm becomes discontinuous, the operator must sit back in the seat, put the forward/reverse selector back in neutral and select forward or reverse if he wishes to continue moving.

18 - STEERING SELECTION

A - GREEN WHEEL ALIGNMENT LAMPS

These lamps come on to indicate the alignment of the wheels in relation to the lift truck. Lamp A1 for the front wheels and lamp A2 for the rear wheels.

Before selecting one of the three possible steering positions, bring all 4 wheels into alignment with regards to the lift truck axle. Never change the steering mode whilst driving.

B - STEERING SELECTION LEVER

B1 - Front drive wheels (highway traffic).

B2 - Front and rear drive wheels in opposite direction (short steering lock).

B3 - Front and rear drive wheels in the same direction (crab steering).

C - SWITCH FOR ALIGNMENT OF THE WHEELS

This switch enables the use or not of the device for alignment of the wheels. The indicator light indicates its use.

CONTROL FOR ALIGNMENT OF THE WHEELS

- Connect the switch (signal light ON).

- Shift the steering selection lever B into position B2 (short steering lock).

- Turn the steering wheel and bring the rear wheels into alignment until lamp A2 lights up.

- Shift the steering selection lever B into position B1 (highway traffic).

- Turn the steering wheel and bring the front wheels into alignment until lamp A1 lights

up.

Before driving on roads, it is necessary to check the alignment of the rear wheels and to drive in front wheel steer. The control of the alignment of the rear wheels must be regularly done with the help of the green lamps, while driving the lift truck. In case of anomalies, consult your dealer.

22 - AIR CONDITIONING CONTROLS (OPTION AIR CONDITIONING)

The air conditioning only comes on when the forklift truck has been started up. When using your air conditioning, you must work with the doors and windows closed. In winter: So as to ensure correct operation and complete efficiency of the air conditioning unit, start up the compressor once a week, if only for a short spell, so as to lubricate the internal seals. In cold weather: Warm the I.C. engine before switching on the compressor, so as to allow the coolant that has collected in the liquid state at the lowest point of the compressor circuit to turn into gas under the effect of the heat given off by the I.C. engine, as the compressor is liable to be damaged by coolant in the liquid state.

If your air conditioning does not seem to be working properly, have it examined by your dealer (see: 3 - MAINTENANCE: F - EVERY 2000 HOURS OF SERVICE). Never try to repair any possible problems by yourself.

DESCRIPTION OF THE AIR CONDITIONING CONTROLS

A - Air conditioning system ON/OFF control switch with indicator lamp. Only works when control switch “C” set to 1, 2 or 3. B - Air temperature control. C - Air flow and fan speed control. When this control is set to “0” the air conditioning system will not work.

NOTE: Possible losses of water under the lift truck are due to condensate discharges caused by the drying effect of the

installation, especially with high outside temperatures and high relative humidity. For the air conditioning to perform properly, the air intakes must not be blocked by frost, snow or leaves. When the facility is running, at least one of the cab air grilles must be open so as to avoid any risk of freezing to the evaporator.
