I. Instructions for use
In order to ensure personal and equipment safety, the driver should obey the following Precautions:
1. Only drivers with proper training and a valid license should operate the vehicle.
2. Check each control and alarm device before driving, if any damage or defects are found they should
be repaired before operation.
3. The load should not exceed the specified value when handling; the forks should be fully inserted
into the load so that it is uniformly positioned on the fork; do not use a single fork to lift cargo.
4. Start, turn, drive, brake and stop smoothly; slow down on wet or slippery roads when steering.
5. Loads should be placed as low as possible, and the mast should tilt backward when driving.
6. Be careful when driving on ramps; move forward when driving up gradients greater than one in ten
and move back when driving down ramps; do not turn when driving up or down ramps; do not carry
out loading and unloading operations when the forklift is in motion.
7. Pay attention to pedestrians, barriers, and bumpy surfaces when driving and be aware of the upper
clearance of the forklift truck.
8. Do not stand on the forks and do not carry passengers.
9. Do not stand under the forks or walk under the forks.
10. Do not operate the truck and its accessories from anywhere except the driver’s seat.
11. Do not handle unsecured or loosely stacked cargo and be careful when handling large cargos.
12. Protect cargo on high lifting forklift trucks with a lift height of more than 3m from falling down and
take preventive measures if necessary.
13. Try to tilt the mast backward when the high lifting forklift truck is in operation and tilt forward
within the minimum range during loading and unloading operations.
14. When driving on wharfs or temporary decking, you should be extra careful and drive slowly.
15. The driver should not stay in the truck and should shut down the engine when refuelling; keep
sources of ignition away when checking the battery or fuel tank level.
16. When a forklift truck with accessories is idling, it should be operated in the same manner as a
loaded forklift truck.
17. Drop the forks to the ground, switch the gear lever to the neutral position, pull the parking brake
device properly, shut down the engine, and disconnect the power when leaving the truck. Engage the
parking brake device properly when parking on ramps, place cushion blocks under the wheels when
parking for a long time.
18. In case of a sudden fault when lifting cargo or driving on gradients, causing leakage of storage
battery electrolyte, hydraulic oil and brake fluid, or a flat tire etc., personnel should be organized for
repair immediately, the truck should be kept in a safe condition, and professional maintenance
personnel or the seller should be contacted.
19. Noise and vibration will be generated during installation and assembly processes; please choose
proper tools and assembly methods to reduce the impact of noise pollution on the environment.
20. The forklift truck must not be used in plant areas; the working surface should be solid and flat
cement pavement, asphalt pavement or concrete pavement. When there is snow, ice, water or other
foreign matter on the road, the truck can only be used after it has been fully cleared away; otherwise,
the truck is likely to lose control, resulting in an accident.
21. In the event of a breakdown, the truck should be first moved to a place where it does not obstruct
traffic. If the breakdown is caused by the brake system or steering system, the truck should be carried

2
away with a proper carrier loader (see the vehicle handling content); if it is caused by other reasons,
the truck should be towed with an appropriate vehicle; tow rope should be fixed outside the truck
body when towing. Obey traffic rules when towing a truck on the highway.
22. Do not operate the forklift truck or carry cargo after disassembling the internal combustion engine
hood, water tank cover plate, overhead guard, mast backrest or other protective devices.
23. There should be sufficient lighting in the truck working area. Turn on the head lights when working
at night and there should be sufficient lighting in the work area.
24.Do not conduct side shift operations when a forklift truck with automatic adjustable distance forks
is loaded to protect the forklift truck from losing balance and damaging components.
25. The 5T-10t forklift truck is provided with an energy accumulator, which can provide at least one
emergency braking operation after the forklift truck has been shut down; in order to ensure your
safety, please carefully read and strictly implement operations related to the energy accumulator in
the manual.
26. Please do not tilt the mast forward or backward or lift the mast to the extreme position during
idling where possible before the temperature of the hydraulic oil rises.
27. Do not revise or modify the forklift truck without the written approval of the forklift truck
manufacturer in advance; otherwise, it may affect the rated load and stability or safe operations. This
includes: Assembly and disassembly of brake, steering, visibility devices and accessories. When the
forklift truck manufacturer agrees to revise or modify the truck, he/she should also agree to update
and properly revise the bearing nameplate, label, and operation and maintenance manual.
28. If the user refits the forklift truck, it may introduce hazards or risks that the manufacturer did not
consider, thus the existing forklift truck risk assessment will become invalid.
Forklift truck refitting outside Europe should conform to regional requirements (see ISO/TS 3691-8).

light
Regen indicator light
There are three kinds of working mode: Driving
regen, parking regen, and service regen
(aftersales solution).
In the first case, the regen indicator light turns
on normally and is in the regen working status.
At that time, manual intervention is not
required and normal operation can be
maintained. The light will automatically turn off
after the regen prompt, which also indicates
that the treatment of particulate matters is
completed.
The driver should reduce light running time as
much as possible to increase the exhaust
temperature and shorten the regen time.
In the second case, it prompts that the parking
regen should be started.
Start parking regen (see operating instructions
for instrument keys) after meeting parking
regen conditions.
Parking regen conditions:
①The forklift truck is parked on a
well-ventilated flat road.
②Pull the hand brake.
③Release the accelerator pedal.
④Keep the direction lever in the
neutral position (gear N).
⑤Warm up the forklift truck until
the water temperature reaches 70℃.
⑥Install the hazard Warning sign
near the exhaust port.
Caution
Parking regen: The parking status is not
suitable for heat dissipation. Stay away from
inflammables and keep a safe distance from
people.
The driver should pay attention to safety,
should not leave the site, and should monitor
the engine conditions during regen.
The driver should not stop the engine during
regen as this is likely to cause a DPF fault.
Warning
In case of emergency, parking regen is
inhibited, and only one of conditions
②③④ to exit parking regen needs to be
met.
The regen indicator light turns on when driving
and the forklift truck can continue to be used
normally or can be driven to a safe position for
parking regen.
If the regen indicator light turns on when
driving and the engine fault indicator light
turns on as well, maintenance personnel or
aftersales staff for the plant area should be
contacted to check the engine fault code. Start
the parking regen after confirming that there is
no other fault.
Caution
If the two indicator lights turn on and there is
no parking regen within 2h, the DPF is likely to
be blocked, the parking regen will fail to start,
and DPF may be damaged, causing
maintenance expenses.

Safety belt
·Fasten the safety belt
An auxiliary action is required before pulling
out the safety belt which may require some
familiarization.
One type of seat: You need to press the white
round button (with the text "press to release")
with one hand, and then the seat belt can be
pulled out with the other hand. Then, the belt
can be inserted into the socket on the other
side of the driver's seat.
You may also encounter another kind of
driver's seat: The driver's seat with a rotating
safety belt box. When the safety belt box is
rotated forward, the safety belt cannot be
pulled out; when the box is rotated backward,
the safety belt can be pulled out and inserted
into the socket on the other side of the driver's
seat; the safety belt box must be rotated
forward again to return to the normal working
position.
Your back and waist should be as close to the
driver's seat as possible when fastening the
safety belt. Do not fasten the safety belt at the
abdomen.
Do not tilt the backrest too much; otherwise,
the safety belt will not be extended correctly.
Do not knot or twist the belt.
