Preface
Explanations on the manual
Safety signs and corresponding esplations

Intended use
The lift truck is designed for transporting and stacking the loads stated in the load capacity
diagram.
In particular we refer to:
• the safety rules of your trade association.
• the special measures required for driving onpublic roads in accordance with the StVZO
(Road Trac Licencing Regulations).
• other local regulations.
The rules for the intended and approved use of industrial trucks must be followed
under all circumstances by the responsible persons, especially by the operator and
service personnel.
The user, and not Manufacturer, is responsible for any danger arising from applications not
authorised by the manufacturer.
If you want to use the truck for applications not mentioned in this manual, please rst contact your
authorised dealer.
No changes, particularly no modications and additions, may be made to the truck without the
approval of the manufacturer.
In the manual, “equipment user” refers to any natural person or legal person directly using or
appointing or authorizing others to use the carrier. In such special situations as renting or sales,
the “equipment user” represents the interested parties supposed to bear operation obligations
as specied by the contractual terms concluded between equipment owner and corresponding
users. Equipment users must ensure the use of the carrier only for purposes specied and timely
eliminate all the dangers that may threaten the life and health of the users themselves or any other
third party, in addition to which they must also strictly abide by accident prevention provisions,
other safety technology provisions and equipment operation, maintenance and repair guidelines,
and ensure that all the operators seriously read and completely understand the contents of the
operation instruction.
Should any violation of the operation instruction occur, the quality guarantee of our company will be
invalid automatically, and our company will assume none of the responsibilities for losses resulting
from any nonstandard operation of the equipment implemented by any client, equipment user or
any third party without the authorization of the client service department of our company.
Obligations and responsibilities of equipment user
This product has a compact chassis, 4-point ground contact, balanced tiller and a microprocessor
electronic control system.The machine is lightweight, highly ecient and easy to handle.
Design
The latest ergonomic and practical design, adaptable to all operators and working conditions.
Control handle
The composite construction control handle head provides excellent impact resistance.
The ergonomic control layout is suitable for left-handed and right-handed operators.
The horn, lifting and lowering devices can be operated using one hand without changing grip.
The emergency reverse switch integrated into the tiller head protects the operator if the truck
recoils.
Series

Equipment ret
Driving
The electronic control unit ensures comfortable use and lower costs.
Precise control of driving speed.
Jolt-free starting and smooth acceleration to maximum speed.
Simply release or turn the drive direction switch to brake.
Booster circuit prevents the truck rolling back when starting on a gradient.
Hydraulics
Gear pump driven by fully enclosed air-cooled motor.
Safety valve and lowering brake protect the hydraulic system.
Brake system
The electromagnetic brake with dust protection function can be used as a safety brake and parking
brake. Braking is controlled by the drive controller, the brake's electromagnet acts on the motor
shaft and automatic braking is activated when the tiller is in the horizontal or vertical position (end
stop brake).
Battery
It uses a large-capacity lead-acid battery or lithium-ion battery and the battery charge can be
viewed on the display unit.
Any installation or retrotting of any additional device that may inuence or enhance the functions
of the carrier must be approved by our company in writing beforehand.

1.1.1 EN standards
Continuous sound level: 67 dB(A)
according to EN 12053 as stipulated in ISO 4871
The continuous sound level is a value averaged according to standard regulations, taking the
sound pressure level into account when driving, lifting and idling. The sound pressure level is
measured at the ear.
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
The manufacturer confirms compliance with the limit values for electromagnetic emission and
interference immunity as well as testing of static electricity discharge according to EN 12895 and
the references to other standards contained therein.
Electrical or electronic components and their arrangement may only be modied after written
approval by the manufacturer has been obtained.

1.1.2 Conditions for application
Working condition requirements:
The walking, lifting and lowering devices, harness and components are IP55 dust and water-
resistant.
The truck's maximum operation altitude is up to 2000m.
Trucks can only be operated in adequately illuminated working areas to avoid injuries. In case
of insucient light, an additional lighting equipment is needed to ensure that the driver can see
properly.
If you must travel on an incline, the gradients should be below A% at full load, or below B% without
a load.(For the value of A and B, refer to the Gradability in technical data)
1.1.3 Stability
Stability is guaranteed if your truck is used properly in accordance with its intended
purpose. Common reasons for a loss of truck stability include:
Emergency stops or sharp turns.
Driving with a raised load or a load handling device.
Turning the vehicle around on or driving across a slope.
Driving up or down a slope with the load pointing downhill.
Driving with a wide load.
Carrying a swinging load.
Driving near the edge of a ramp or up steps.
Tilting the mast forward while carrying araised load.
Driving on uneven surfaces.
Overloading the truck.
Carrying bulky loads in strong winds.
When carrying liquid, its centre of mass inside the container may shift due to inertial force (such as
when pulling away, braking or turning).
Wind loads
Wind forces can aect the stability of a truck when lfting, lowering and transporting loads with large
surface areas .
Light loads must be especially secured when they are subjected to wind forces. This will prevent
the load from sliding or falling. Stop the truck in both cases .
