6.2.1. Load lifting
Perform the daily maintenance check before each use as described in chapter
7.3.‘Maintenance instructions’
1. Before starting
First, use the hydraulic levers to check which levers operate which function.
Use all the functions several times with no load to check if they function normally and smoothly.
Before lifting a load, operate the forks several times to remove air from the circuit.
Before lifting a load, position the fork.
Don’t adjust the fork with a load!
2. Loading
1. The load must be positioned against the body of the forks and not towards the tips of the lifting
forks.
Make sure that the load cannot move or fall.This can cause accidents.
2. The forks must be spaced inside the pallets.
After lifting the load, always position the forks in the centre.

6.2.2. Load handling
Don’t drive with a non-centred load (shifted towards the left or right).
Make sure that loads can’t move freely, they may fall and cause accidents.
1. Set the forks of your lifting device in the correct position and as wide as possible for the load to be
carried.
2. Adjust the forks to the correct width so you can provide a more even distribution.
3. Pick up the load parallel to the floor. Always use both forks if you want to transport the goods.
4. When moving your lifting device, lift the load 200 mm from the ground.
If you are using a lift truck, make sure you tilt the mast backwards.
5. To unload, firstly bring the upright to a vertical position and then slowly lower the forks.
