DANGER
Risk of accident when forks are changed:
If the forks are changed and a different type of
forks to the original forks is fitted, the residual load
capacity changes.
When forks are changed, a new residual capacity
plate must be affixed.

For the standard version, when the straddles
are raisedoff the ground, if the operator tries to
raise the forks above approximately 1500 mm
from the ground, a message will appear on the
display to warn that the operator must lower
the straddles to be able to raise the forks any
further (see ⇒ Chapter"Display", P.3-28). The
forks are locked at 1500 mm from the ground
until the operator lowers the straddles.
If the truck is equipped with the "Straddle automatic lowering" option, the truck automatically
lowers the straddles (if raised off the ground)
when the forks are raised above 1500 mm.
NOTE
On the version with platform, the automatic
function is intentionally blocked for safety
reasons when the operator guides the truck
from the ground in pedestrian mode. In this
case, the truck behaves in the same way as
the standard version. With ride-on driving, the

CAUTION
This machine is intended for the transport of loads
packed on pallets or in industrial containers designed for thispurpose, as well as forplacing pallets
into and removing pallets from stock.
The dimensions and capacity of the pallets or
containers must be adapted to the load being
transported to ensure stability.
The table of characteristics and performance
attached to this user manual gives you some of the
information you need to check that the equipment
is suitable for the work being carried out.
Any specific usage must be authorised by the

associated with this usage will enable him to put in
place any necessary additional safety measures.
Safety instructions relating to use of
the truck
Behaviour when driving
The operator must obey the same rules within
the plant as on the road. The operator must
drive at a speed appropriate for the driving
conditions. For example, the operator should
drive slowly around corners, when entering
and travelling through narrow passageways,
when driving through swing doors, at blind
spots, or on uneven surfaces. The operator
must always maintain a safe braking distance
from vehicles and persons in front of him and
must always have the truck under control. The
operator must avoid sudden stops, making
fast U-turns and overtaking other vehicles in
potentially dangerous areas or areas with poor
visibility.
WARNING
Driving the truck while sitting down is prohibited.
• The truck has not been designed to transport anyone other than the operator and
must not be used for this purpose.
• The operator must always stay within the
truck clearance.
• Stay in the safety area (workin
defined by the manufacturer)

Danger area
The danger area is the area in which people
are in danger from the forklift truck movements, from its work equipment and from its
load lifting devices (e.g. accessories) or from
the load. The danger area also includes areas in which a load could fall or in which work
equipment could lower or fall.
Traffic route conditions
The surface of traffic routes must be sufficiently level, clean and clear of objects.
Drainage channels, railway crossings and
other similar obstacles must be levelled and, if
necessary, fitted with ramps so that the truck
can cross without jolting.
There must be sufficient distance between
the highest part of the truck or the load and

Forklift Use in Cold-Storage Rooms.
A truck specifically equipped for cold-storage
rooms must be used when working at temperatures below +5°C.
Forklifts equipped for working in cold climates
and cold-storage rooms may be used at a
minimum temperature of -5°C for continuous
service in cold-storage rooms and at -32°C
for non-continuous service in cold-storage
rooms.
CAUTION
The forklift must always be turned off and parked
outside the cold area/cold-storage room.
CAUTION
If the truck has been working in environments at
temperatures below -5°C and it is taken outside the
cold-storage room, let it stand either for a sufficiently long time to allow evaporation of any condensation (at least 30 minutes) or a sufficiently short time
to prevent the formation of any condensation (less
than 10 minutes).
Avoid the formation of ice on the forklift.
