Operation
4 Operation
Unloading and Preparing a New Truck for Operation
WARNING
Wheel mounting hardware sometimes requires
several cycles of tightening before it fully seats.
For this reason, wheel mounting screws or nuts will
often work loose in the period immediately following
initial tightening.
When placing a new truck into service, the wheel
mounting screws or nuts must be checked for
tightness every 10 hours until no further loosening
is detected.
Driving
WARNING
A
Operators must be familiar with all safety procedu-
res that apply to forklift operation before driving.
Read and understand all safety information in
Section 2 before operating the truck.
Forward motion 2
Reverse
With the control handle in the working
range, press the lower section of the travel
control so that it rotates in the direction
shown (3).
The truck will move in reverse. The speed is
proportional to the amount of control rotation.

1101 02232012-04
Riding
Some models are equipped for riding. These
versions have a rigid grab bar (5) to hold while
riding. If the truck does not have the grab
bar, it is not designed for riding and riding is 5
not permitted. Rider versions also have a 6
dedicated platform to stand on while riding.
WARNING
Riding trucks without a grab bar and platform can
cause injury.
Trucks without a grab bar and platform are not 1101 02232012-05
intended for riding. Do not ride any truck that is not
equipped with a grab bar and platform.
Steering
Steering the truck is done using the control
handle. Manually moving it to the left or right
will swivel the drive wheel. The truck then
turns in forward or reverse according to the
handle direction.
1101 02272012-01
Horn
Press the horn button (1) on the control handle 1
to sound the horn.
If the truck is a rider model, an additional horn
button (2) is provided on the grab bar. Either
button will sound the horn.

The truck is also equipped with an anti-rollback
feature. If the truck is stopped on an incline
and the control handle is moved into the
operating position to restart, the truck will
creep down the incline at a slow speed for
approximately one foot and then stop unless
the travel control is used. Always release
the control handle to engage the mechanical
brake if the truck must be held stationary on an
incline. Never leave the truck unattended on

The truck will coast to a stop after movement.
Before moving the truck, ensure that there is ade-
quate room for the truck to coast to a stop.
WARNING
Allowing the truck to travel unattended can cause
injury if personnel or equipment are in its path.
Always remain with the truck until it comes to a
complete stop. Watch for personnel or equipment
entering the path of the truck. To stop the truck,
release the red button or travel control and move
the handle to the full up or down position.
WARNING
Riding the truck with the coast control system
engaged can cause accident and injury.
Never ride the truck with the coast control system
engaged. Always stop the truck and dismount
before engaging the coast control system.
WARNING

WARNING
If any lifting equipment (forklift trucks or other lifting
equipment) used to change a battery has insuffi-
cient load carrying capability and/or forks whose
length is too short, there is a risk of accidental injury
or death.
Use only equipment of sufficient size and load
carrying capability to change batteries.
WARNING
Shorting of battery terminals can cause burns,
electrical shock, or explosion.
Do not allow metal parts to contact the top surface
of the battery. Make sure all terminal caps are in
place and in good condition.
WARNING
Batteries of incorrect size or weight can reduce
traction and braking ability.
Install only batteries whose weight meets the
specification listed on the truck data plate.
WARNING
On trucks equipped with battery rollers, an unsecu-
red battery can roll out of the truck during operation
and cause severe injury.
Ensure that both battery retainer plates are in place
before operating the truck.
WARNING
Batteries produce explosive gases.
Always store batteries in well ventilated areas.
WARNING
The control handle will be damaged if towing equip-
ment is attached to it.
Never tow the truck by the control handle.

Troubleshooting
Fuses
F1
The standard truck has one main power fuse
F2 1F1
and four control fuses. Rider trucks equipped
with the coast control option will have a fifth F3
control fuse. All fuses are mounted to the F4
frame near the battery connector. The 250 F5
amp main power fuse (1F1) protects the drive
motor and the power circuit side of the main
control unit. The control fuses are assigned as
follows:
F1: (15 amp) Protects all key switched
inputs
F2: (4 amp) Protects controller positive
input
F3 (4 amp) Protects horn
1101 03302012-01
F4: (4 amp) Protects fan motor (rider trucks
only)
F5 (4 amp) Protects coast control system
(optional)
WARNING
The motor fuse carries very high currents which
can cause fire or injury if inappropriately handled or
incorrectly installed.
Only trained service personnel should inspect
or replace these fuses. The specific installation
sequence of cables, hardware, and fuses onto
the fuse terminals is vital to proper functioning
of the fuses. Incorrect installation sequence of
these parts can cause premature fuse failure,
overheating, or fire.
Diagnostic Connector
The diagnostic connector (1) is located in a
bracket with two harness connectors imme-
diately below the control unit. It provides an 1
interface between the control unit and dia-
gnostic software on a hand programming
unit or laptop computer. The software allows
review/editing of performance parameters,
readout of fault codes, and resetting of mai-
ntenance intervals.
1101 04022012-01
Maintenance Intervals
The truck control system has the capability
to store a programmed maintenance interval.
When the operating hours on the truck reach
this programmed value, the red light beside
the wrench symbol on the indicator unit
will begin flashing. When this occurs, the
maintenance interval value must be increased
to the next desired maintenance interval to
clear the fault. This requires connecting
a hand held programming unit or a laptop
containing the appropriate software to the
diagnostic plug and then resetting the value.
The procedure is explained in the service
manual.
