USE (18.4+X35)
The driver must carry out the following instructions of use in the driving position in way to remain reasonably distant from the dangeuros zones (such as masts, forks,
chains, pulleys, driving and stabilizing wheels and any other movable part), that can cause the crushing of hands and/or foots.
Safety Regulations
The truck must be used according to the following regulations:
a) The driver of the machine must be aware of the instructions for use of the vehicle and wear appropriate clothing and a helmet.
b) The driver responsible for the fork lift truck must not allow unauthorised personnel to drive the truck or to step onto the forks or the platform.
c) While the truck is in movement the operator must reduce speed in curves, in narrow corridors, through doors or on irregular surfaces.
He must keep unauthorised personnel away from the area where the truck is working and immediately warn people if they are in danger; if, in spite of this warning there
is still someone in the work area the driver must immediately stop the truck.
d) It is forbidden to stop in areas where there are moving parts and step on the fixed parts of the truck.
e) The driver must avoid sudden stops and fast inversions of movement.
f) In case of slopes with maximum permitted inclination, the driver must keep the load above the truck and reduce speed.
g) When driving the driver must make sure that visibility is good and that there are no obstructions when reversing.
h) If the truck is transported in lifts he must enter them with the loading forks in front (first make sure the lift has a sufficient load)
i) It is absolutely forbidden to disconnect or dismount the safety devices. If the truck is used in areas with a high risk of fire or explosion, it must be approved for this
kind of use.
l) The loading capacity of the truck must in no case be exceeded.
The driver must ensure that the load is well placed on the forks and in perfect order; the load must not jut out more than 50mm from the end of the forks.
m) Before beginning work the driver of the truck must check:
- the performance of the service and parking brake
- that the loading forks are in perfect order
- that the wheels and the rollers are not damaged
- that the battery is charged, well fixed and the elements perfectly dry and clean
- that all the safety devices are in working order
n) Once the battery (ref. 7/fig. 6) signals that it only has 20% charge left, the trolley/truck must stop being used and, therefore, recharged.
o) The truck must always be used or parked sheltered from rain and snow and in no case must it be used in very damp areas.
p) Temperature of use -10°, +40°
The manufacturers shall not be held liable in case of faults or accidents due to negligence, incapacity, installation by unqualified technicians and improper use of the
truck.
Movement (see fig.5)
Make sure the main switch is in lifted position.
Before moving the truck check that the horn and the brake work and that the battery is completely charged. Turn the key to the 1 position and move the steering bar to
its movement position. Turn the governor slowly and move towards the relative work area. To brake or stop turn the governor in the opposite direction. Always steer the
truck slowly as sudden movements can provoke dangerous situations (particularly when the truck moves at high speeds). Reduce speed in narrow corridors and on
curves. The steering angle is 180°. (fig. 5)
Controls (19.3+x36) (fig. 6)
1) Accelerator 2) Dead man's handle 3) "Tortoise" audible detector pushbutton/pushbutton 4) Raising button 5) On/Off key 6) Master switch 7) Battery warning light 8) Lowering button
9) Meter
MAINTENANCE (20.4+X37)
Maintenance must be carried out by specialised personnel.
The truck must undergo a general check up at least once a year.
After every maintenance operation the performance of the truck and its safety devices must be checked.
Inspect the truck periodically so as not to risk the machine stopping or danger for personnel!
(see maintenance table).
Attention: Disconnect the master switch before carrying out any maintenance operation.

CLEANING THE TRUCK: Clean the parts of the truck, except electrical and
electronic elements, with a damp cloth.
Do not use direct jets of water, steam or inflammable liquids.
Clean electrical and electronic components with dehumidified compressed
air at low pressure (max. 5 bar) or with a non metallic brush.
Use hydraulic oil apart from motor and brake oil.
Note: When eliminating used oil please respect the environment. The oil
should be stored in a drum that should be later consigned to the nearest
petrol station. Do not dump the oil in the ground or in unsuitable places.
