SWFD50H~70H Operator’s Manual
Forklift is a professional vehicle for cargo loading and unloading, stack-building and short
distance transportation. So it is different from other vehicle in structure, pay attention:
(1) Forklift is set lifting system within gantry, front field vision is limited.
(2) Forklift is driven by front wheel and rear wheel turning. Vehicle rear part is rotating outward
when turning.
(3) Forklift is heavy because of its hard structure design. When loading, all load is in front
wheel, gravity center move forward, so its stability is a little worse.
(4) During normal operation, the shake effects in seat will less than 1m/s2 without load, and less
than 0.7m/s2 with full load, the shake is not harmful to human body.
(5) Read “Operator’s Manual” and nameplate, warning mark in forklift; familiar with and
control vehicle status and operation rule, if there is any question please contact with
administrator.
Only trained personnel who passed the test allow operating forklift
(1) Check forklift action, water and oil sealing, parts connection, assembly parts distortion and
lubrication status periodically. Ignoring check will shorten vehicle lifetime,even will lead to
accident.
(2) Make sure to replace “safe parts” in periodic check.
(3) Wipe oil, grease and water cleanly in base board, foot pedal and control bar.
(1) Once failure happened, stop forklift immediately, hang the label of “failure” or “danger” in
forklift and take the key, report to manager at the same time.
(2) Only after failure solved, forklift could be used again.

SWFD50H~70H Operator’s Manual
Operator’s head, arm, hand, leg and foot should be in the cabin, don’t extend to outside of
vehicle in any time.
(1) Check work area road surface, opening, steep, slope, obstacle, raised point and any road status
which maybe lead to out of control, thrashing accidents.
(2) Clean trash, chippings and any impurity which maybe pierce tire, to avoid lose balance.
(1) Know forklift and its accessary loading curve, forbiding overload;
(2) Don’t use person as counter balance, it is very dangerous.
(1) According to loading cargo shape and material, choose suitable accessary and tool;
(2) Don’t use cord to hang fork and accessary to lift cargo, because cord maybe slide; if real
necessary, it should ask qualified person to adopt lifting hook or arm to do;
(3) Don’t make fork contacting ground in travelling, to avoid to damage fork teeth or road surface.
Because of its special structure and purpose, please attention to the traveling direction, and keep a
good visibility. Especially when backing up.

SWFD50H~70H Operator’s Manual
When forklift pass through boat plate or bridge plate, check road surface in work site at first, the
most important is to check boat plate or bridge plate is fixed correctly and stably or not; whether
could bear forklift weight and its loading.
(1) When transport super large and limit field of vision, please backing-up running or leading by
guide. When lead by guide, operator must understand the guide hand signal, flag, whistle or
other signal;
(2) When transport long cargo such as timber, pipe and ling shape cargo or operate forklift with
extending accessory, traveling in narrow pathway or turning, it must pay fully attention to
front, left- right side and other people.
6
SWFD50H~70H Operator’s Manual
(1) When backing-up and turning, it should be careful to avoid fork teeth touch other goods;
(2) Because forklift is rear wheel turning, vehicle rear part is rotating outward when turning. So
it should be careful in turning;
(3) Make sure that cargo is flat locating in two forks and packed ok, travel carefully in rough
road surface.
(1) When work in long distance or in rough road, it will happen misplay easily; So it must pay
attention to control speed and make sure safe braking;
(2) When work at night, please use head light and width light.
(1) Taking cargo from front face, put fork into pallet carefully;
(2) Cargo and pallet gravity center should be located between two forks center.
(3) Forbid to load cargo with single fork.
After forklift loading, gantry should be back inclination and fall down cargo; especially steel pallet,
it must make sure gantry back inclination to avoid sliding.
(1) Forbid loading cargo at high speed. Before fork lifting, it must make sure that cargo is fixed
stably;
(2) Before lifting cargo, please stop for a moment to make sure no obstacle around.
No matter in unload or loading status, it is dangerous to travel with gantry lifted, it should keep
standard status when traveling (distance between fork and ground is 15~30cm);
(1) Do not load the cargo over block shelf, if necessary, please fasten the cargo.
(2) When carry with super-large cargo which affected the visibility, please drive backwards.
7
SWFD50H~70H Operator’s Manual
(1) Making sure cargo packed stably and flat put in fork, forbid adopting single fork to lift cargo.
(2) Forklift with accessory such as flat plate clip should make sure cargo packed stably and
clamped, then gantry fully back inclination.
(3) Forklift with side shifter or accessory which is used to load long cargo should pay much
attention to loading center distance in operation, loading center should near fork bracket.
(1) When stack and discharge cargo, it should minimize the forward inclination angle; if cargo is
little higher than stack floor or in low level, it can forward incline gantry;
(2) If it need to stack in high level, it should vertical gantry near ground 15~20cm, then lifting,
and don’t let gantry inclination at the same time;
(3) When take cargo in high location, fork should be inserted into pallet completely and lifting
slowly, after receding stack then falling down, gantry back inclination. Never incline gantry
when cargo is in high level.
Because gantry forward and back ward inclination will lead to cargo and vehicle overturn or
damage, so don’t allow sudden push pull work in gantry lifted status.
Forbid stand or walk under lifting fork, if necessary, it should in safe place and support fork or
accessory by wood block to prevent accident.
Avoid brake suddenly and fast downgrade to prevent cargo falling down, roll over.
(1) When forklift need to travel backwards, it should stop forklift at first then backing-up;
(2) Forklift speed adjusting and shifting should be smoothly, pull control lever to neutral position
at first then push to related gear.

accelerator, change shift lever from 1 into 2, increase accelerator.
(2) Slow down (from 2 position to 1 position). Please do not change directly, because thus change
will cause harmful strike to gear box. Please stamp jiggle pedal to cut off oil loop, then set the
shift lever from 2 into neutral. Set shift lever into 1 position when forklift almost stop.
(3) Change direction
Please follow the instructions below:
Release accelerator, stamp jiggle pedal to cut off oil loop. If continue this step will decelerate and
brake. Set the shift lever to reversal position after machine stopped (or from reversal to forward),
release jiggle pedal and stamp accelerator. Please keep the machine in idle speed after release
jiggle pedal, and stamp accelerator after start up or may cause damage to gear box. Stamp jiggle
pedal and brake pedal at same time to stop machine immediately.
Anyhow, when change speed from fast into slow or change direction, please stamp jiggle pedal to
cut off oil loop, or it is harmful to gear box.
(4) Decelerate under the following situations:
a. When steering;
b. When approaching goods or pallet;
c. When approaching stack area;
d. In confined passage;
e. When the road or ground is not so good.
Please notice: Do not start up or brake suddenly to avoid goods drop down.
4.2.3. Turning
Forklift is different from common vehicle which is rear wheel turning; when turning, rear balance
weight rotate to outside. Before turning, reduce the speed at first, rotate the steering wheel to
turning direction, steering wheel should be rotated earlier than front wheel turning vehicle.

Compared the hydraulic system with forklift 2~3t, forklift 5~7t uses double pump and turning
circuitry, it is more complex. The hydraulic oil from rear pump transfer to distributor 3. And
hydraulic oil from front pump 1 divides into 2 circuitries, for steering and loading/unloading.
Hydraulic oil for loading comes from distributor and rear pump, to activate cylinder related to
lift/decline and tilt. When distributor in middle position; the hydraulic oil will back to tank via
distributor.
When pull lift valve, the hydraulic oil from distributor via valve 10, press the lift cylinder. When
push lift valve, the piston in lift cylinder connects to tank, effects by weight and gravity, the piston
rod declines, hydraulic oil from lift cylinder transfer to valve 10, so the decline speed is
controllable. When operate tilt valve, hydraulic oil from front valve transfer into certain side of tilt
cylinder and press piston, another side connects to tank, thus realized tilt forwards or backwards.

6.7.4.3 Main security valve
Working theory of main security valve is as following (As figure 6.40: 1—2—3—4)
(1) Main security valve connects to high pressure connector HP and low pressure passage. The
hydraulic oil passes through its core effects in side A and side B, the diameter of A and B is
different. So core of one way valve K and core of main security valve D installed in valve
bracket firmly.
(2) When the pressure in high pressure connector lager than spring adjustment, turn on core of
pilot “E”, hydraulic oil transfer to hole and then into low pressure passage.
(3) Turn on core of pilot valve E, the pressure behind valve core C decrease, leads valve core C
moves rightwards till touch to pilot valve core E, thus the circuitry behind security valve core
is cut up, the pressure falls down.
(4) The pressure inside security valve falls down, can not meet the balance with cylinder
connector HP, thus leads to security valve core D unfolded, high pressure connector HP
connects to low pressure passage.

Security valve uses to prevent rapid decline cased by hose outbursts when lifting. It installed in
the bottom of lift cylinder. The oil return from lift cylinder passes through security valve, holes
around slip valve causing different pressure in two cavities; slip valve won’t move when the
different value less than the force from spring. If outburst happened, only few oil passes through
holes, thus the decline speed is much slower.
Speed limiting valve (Structure as the figure 6.44) uses to limit the decline speed of fork. It
installed between distributor and lift cylinder, closer to the left lift cylinder.
Working theory of speed limiting valve is as following:
When fork lifted, oil from distributor get in cavity A and push sleeve move to left, now the G
unfolded, hydraulic oil transfer along A—B—G—D—E and A—B—C—D—E to enter lift
cylinder. In this status, speed limiting valve will not control its flux. When declining fork, the
return oil from lift cylinder get in cavity E and push sleeve move to right, till contact to connector,
now G closed. Return oil travels E—D—H—C—B—A has to pass through speed limiting valve
then back to tank. When return oil increase suddenly, the pressure in cavity F increase and push
valve core 5 to right, make H more confined, thus the flux from D to C decrease, to decrease the
falling speed of fork.

ring and one supporting ring, with the pressure of hydraulic oil, piston moves alone the cylinder.
In the inner hole of cover board installed a steel bearing, a Yx sealing rind and dustproof ring.
Sealing ring and dustproof ring uses to prevent oil and dust. Around the surface of cylinder, there
is an o-ring.
When pull out slip valve, high pressure hydraulic oil get in cylinder, push piston move forwards,
the gantry tilt forwards (6°Maximum); when pull in slip valve, high pressure hydraulic oil get in
cylinder from the side of cover board, push piston move backwards, the gantry tilt backwards
(12°Maximum).
