01INTRODUCTION
Instruction Handbook
This Instruction Handbook contains information that you, as
user of the truck, must be aware of in order to avoid/minimise
the risk of injury/damage to yourself or the truck. You are also
responsible to the company management, other people and
objects in your environment. You should therefore carefully read
all the way through this handbook before starting the truck for
the first time.
The Instruction manual describes a truck with standard
equipment, customer modifications may have been fitted.
It is not obvious that the options that are described in the
Instruction Handbook are suitable for all truck models. Contact
your truck supplier for information.
Our products are constantly being developed and renewed, we
therefore reserve the right to make alterations without prior
notice.
We have been manufacturing trucks since 1958. Quality,
operational safety and innovation have made us a leading
worldwide truck supplier.
Thank you for choosing us as your truck supplier.

contact our service department.
We offer support and advice for any problems that may arise
and assistance with servicing and ordering of replacement
parts. Refer to the nearest authorised sales agent or service
workshop for assistance.
Genuine Parts
The reliability that we promise is contingent upon using our
original spare parts. Only our genuine replacement parts
guarantee correct operation, long life and the right to a
warranty.
Our truck driving courses
The importance of goods handling to companies and society in
general increases every year. At the same time, trucks are
being equipped with ever more advanced technical solutions. It
is therefore important that the operator, who has a key role to
play in goods handling, is given the correct conditions to
operate as safely and efficiently as possible. Statistics show
that the number of incidents decreases significantly when a
truck operator has been properly trained. To receive information
on current training offers, please contact your local authorised
representative, preferably, or, if necessary, another authorised
dealer.

TRUCK MODIFICATION02
Truck modification
NOTE!
Unauthorized truck modification is not permitted.
No modifications or changes to powered industrial trucks that
can affect areas such as capacity, stability or safety
requirements for the truck may be made without advance
written authorisation from the manufacturer, its authorised
representatives or a successor to these. Contact your local
authorised dealer before any modification or change is made to
your industrial truck that may affect, for example, braking,
steering, visibility and connection of separate load aggregates.
Once permission has been granted by the manufacturer,
authorised representative thereof or successor to these, the
plate indicating the truck's capacity, decals, labels and
operating and instruction handbooks must also be changed
accordingly.
Only in the event that the manufacturer is no longer in business
and there is no successor to the company's stakeholders may
the user implement a modification or alteration to a powered
industrial truck. This applies on the condition that the user:
•arranges for the modification or alteration to be designed,
tested and implemented by one or more engineers who
are experts in industrial trucks and their safety
•maintains a permanent record of the design, test(s) and
implementation of the modification or alteration
•approves and makes appropriate changes to the capacity
plate(s), decals, tags and Instruction Handbook
•affixes a permanent and readily visible label to the truck
stating the manner in which the truck has been modified or
altered, together with the date of the modification or
alteration, and the name and address of the organization
which performed the task.

03ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS
We respect the environment
The majority of our products consist of steel, and can be
completely recycled.
Environmental impact
All products have an impact on the environment throughout
their entire life cycle.
The consumption of energy when in use is one of the most
important factors that influences the environment.
Through correct care, maintenance and use the consumption of
energy can be reduced, thereby reducing the environmental
impact.
Waste
Waste material in conjunction with repairs, maintenance,
cleaning, or scrapping, must be collected and disposed of in an
environment-friendly way and in accordance with the directives
of respective countries.
Such work should only be carried out in areas intended for this
purpose.
Recyclable material should be taken care of by specialised
authorities.
Environmentally hazardous waste, such as oil filters, hydraulic
oil, batteries and electronic equipment, can, if handled
incorrectly, have a negative effect on the environment and
human health.

11GENERAL LOADING AND UNLOADING INFORMATION
Responsibility for the load
The driver of the truck is responsible for the load that is being
carried during transport. There must not be any risk of the load
tipping or sliding off during transport. The driver of the truck has
the right and duty to refuse to carry any load that is a clear
safety hazard. Refer to the load limit plate to see the permitted
maximum load for the truck.
Responsibility for others
Operate the truck so that there is no risk of an accident. No one
may pass or stand under the raised forks, whether they are
carrying a load or not. The driver has the right and duty to see
that these directives are followed.
Maximal load
The maximum lifting capacity of the truck must not be exceeded
(refer to the fork lift truck load limit plate). Note the effect of the
centre of gravity on the lifting capacity.
Picking up a load
Always pick up a load so that it comes to rest as close to the
mast as possible.
CAUTION!
Check the location of the centre of gravity of the
load.
CAUTION!
Do not drive with the load lifted, except during
2-pallet handling.
2-pallet handling
The following applies to trucks with adjustable outriggers which
make 2 pallet handling possible:
•Adjust the speed in accordance with floor conditions, load
distribution and when cornering.
•Remember that a higher centre of gravity makes the truck
less stable. Try to have the load as low as possible, with
the heaviest load always lowermost.
•Whilst loading with only the forks, the straddle legs must
be completely lowered.
•Refer to the load limit plate to see the permitted load
combinations for a particular truck.
38
GENERAL INFORMATION CONCERNING STACKING12
Stacking
1)Approach the stack with the load in the lowered position.
2)Lift the load sufficiently high that it clears the stack or shelf
and then drive towards the stack.
3)When the load is in a suitable position, lower it onto the
stack.
4)Lower the forks so that they release the load/pallet, and
check that no-one is behind the truck before reversing
away from the stack.
5)Lower the forks into their transport positions.
6)When fetching a load from a stack, carry out these
movements in reverse order.

the truck or the load within the industrial lift's risk zones. Ensure
that the truck's brakes have been engaged before the industrial
lift is started!
Floor load
Carefully check notices or other instructions concerning the
maximum floor load or maximum wheel pressure to ensure that
these are not exceeded. For the truck's total weight, see the
machine plate.
Signalling
Use the signal horn to attract attention.
Reduced vision
Slow down when approaching crossings and other places
where the line of vision is reduced. Avoid driving in the same
direction as the forks if the load in front of you obstructs your
sight. Find someone to help you, if your vision is blocked.
NOTE!
Accessories on the truck may restrict the view.
WARNING!
There is a danger to life if the truck is driven with
insufficient visibility through the finger protection.
Beware therefore of, for example, condensation and
icing, which must be removed before the truck is
driven.

15SAFETY REGULATIONS
Transports
Figure 9. Transport mode
In normal operation, the truck's transport mode must be
observed. It is prohibited to drive with forks raised when moving
loads up and down in shelves and similar.
When transporting loads, the truck should, if possible, be driven
in the opposite direction to the direction the forks are pointing.
This ensures that the operator has a better view if the load is
high, and makes the truck easier to manoeuvre. When driving in
the direction of the forks, the truck is sensitive to any sharp
steering movements (compare with reversing a car). Only drive
the truck with covers and housings closed and locked in place.
Speed
Adjust the speed according to the floor conditions, the line of
sight and operational safety. Avoid rapid acceleration, sudden
braking and cornering at speed; there is a risk for overturning or
that the load will fall off.
Driving space
Ensure that you have sufficient space for the truck - both the
driver and the load - in narrow aisles. Narrow door openings
that will not permit two-way traffic must be entered through the
centre of the opening. Remember that the truck platform, gates
and overhead guard require extra room. Follow the truck paths
marked within the driving area. Remember to keep your whole
body inside the truck perimeter to avoid crushing injuries.
WARNING!
It is not permitted to push material that is on the floor
out of the way by means of the truck's chassis.
Powered trucks equipped with folding platform
WARNING!
Take great care when guiding a pedestrian truck with
a platform, as there is a risk of being crushed
between the truck and surrounding objects.
62
Load guard
SAFETY REGULATIONS15
WARNING!
Place your feet correctly on the platform to avoid
injury.
The truck may be equipped with load protection if it is to handle
small objects that are at risk of falling down and injuring the
operator or the truck while the load is raised.
WARNING!
Remember that the load guard requires extra lifting
space!
63
15SAFETY REGULATIONS
Risk zones
Do not drive near the edges of loading bays, gangways, etc.
where there is a risk of the truck going over an edge. Be careful
when operating close to colour marked risk zones.
Overturning
If the truck overturns, get out and keep away from it.
Trucks on another vehicle's loading platform or on a
gangway
When the truck is being driven on a ramp from a loading
platform to a lorry bed or trailer, the ramp's bearing capacity
must be checked. There must be devices in place to prevent
the ramp from shifting. The bearing capacity of the vehicle that
is being driven up onto must be checked. There must be
devices (such as brake chocks) in place to prevent the vehicle
from moving. For information on the truck's total weight, see the
truck's machine plate.
Direction of travel when driving on slopes
Outrigger trucks
These trucks are always driven unloaded with the forks facing
away from the crown of the hill or slope.
When driving with a load on an incline, keep the forks facing the
top.
Awareness!
Always be aware of personnel in the neighbourhood when
operating the truck.
Transportation security
A. PLL, PLE, PSL, PSD, PLP,
TS
When a truck is to be transported, it must be secured at the
defined transportation points. All trucks are to be secured by a
strap across the forks. If the truck has an overhead guard or a
mast that is higher than 2.5 m, a strap must also be secured
over the overhead guard/mast. Chocks can be placed against
the chassis in every direction to prevent rolling or sliding.
B. PS, PSH
64
SAFETY REGULATIONS15
PS, PSH: Open the battery cover and thread the strap under it
so that the cover is not damaged by the pressure.
Lifting the forks
Unsecured forks may be lifted by means of a strop intended for
the purpose, as in the illustration. The forks are fitted and
removed by being balanced on a piece of wood and pulled or
pushed by hand off or on to the truck.
Normal operating conditions
Stacking must be carried out on firm, clean and level ground.
Exceptional operating conditions
When the operating conditions differ from the normal conditions
above, the following steps must be taken:
•If the working conditions are of a permanent nature, an
agreement must be drawn up with the supervisory
authority and any other party concerned.
•If the working conditions are of a temporary nature, take
suitable measures, such as using a larger truck, or
reducing the load appropriately.
Work in hazardous environments
A truck operating in an area where there is a risk of fire,
explosion, or in any other high risk area, must be specially
equipped for the purpose.
WARNING!
A truck is not normally equipped for these situations.
Parking
The truck must never be left unattended other than when in the
intended parking space. The truck should always be parked on
level ground. The parking brake must always be engaged. The
forks must be lowered to their lowest position so that nobody
can trip on them. Always turn off the truck so that it is cannot be
operated. If the truck is equipped with a PIN code, the truck
should be "logged off" so that a new code is required to restart,
thereby preventing unauthorised use. See section Switching off
65
15SAFETY REGULATIONS
the truck page 34. If the truck is equipped with a key switch,
the key must be taken out when leaving the truck, so that
unauthorised persons cannot use it. Fire insurance terms
dictate whether or not the key should be taken out at the end of
work. Check!
If the truck is left unused for a prolonged period without it being
recharged, e.g. between two shifts, the battery plug must be
disconnected.
CAUTION!
Do not block access to fire fighting equipment or fire
doors by parking the truck or placing goods in front
of them.
When lifting the truck
General
The truck may only be lifted using lifting eyes directly intended
for lifting. The image shows where the permitted lift points are
located on the truck. The lift points are marked with a decal
showing a lifting hook.
When the truck is being lifted up with a jack, make sure that it is
secured with blocks. The truck must not rest on the jack during
operation.
WARNING!
