Operating Instructions – 393 807 1001 EN – 08/2008 3

1Introduction
Technical description
Technical description
Forklift trucks in the 393 series are designed to
handle loading and palletising operations for
loads up to 2.5 t with H 25, up to 3 t with H 30
and up to 3.5 t with H 35.
Details on the exact lift-height-specific maxi-
mum loads are available in the load diagram.
The trucks are eco-friendly and their quiet
operation and low level of emissions benefit
both the driver and the environment. They
excel on account of their compact design
and a small turning radius, and they are fully
container compatible. For this reason, the
forklift trucks are particularly well-suited for
narrow aisles and operational areas where
space is at a premium.
Engine
A 4-cylinder, four-stroke diesel engine with tur-
bocharging and state-of-the-art pump/nozzle
technology is installed as the drive motor. It
powers the truck’s hydraulic pumps and varies
its speed depending on the load. The engine
is cooled by means of a closed coolant circuit
with an expansion tank.
Forced circulation lubrication with an oil pump
in the oil sump is used to lubricate the engine.
The combustion air is cleaned by means of a
dry air filter with a paper insert. Diesel motors
with state-of-the-art technology are used for:
• High torque
• Low fuel consumption
• Low exhaust emissions
• Low particulate emissions
• Low noise levels
Hydraulic system
Thetractiondriveconsistsofahydraulic
variable displacement pump, two hydraulic
fixed-displacement wheel motors (assembled
as a drive axle unit) and a hydraulic pump
(fixed displacement pump) for the working
and steering hydraulics. Direction of travel
and speed are regulated by means of two
accelerator pedals via the hydraulic variable
displacement pump.
The hydraulic fixed-displacement wheel
motors in the drive axle are supplied by the
hydraulic variable-displacement pump and
they power the drive wheels.
Operation
One accelerator pedal each for forward travel
and reversing (two-pedal operation) is used to
simultaneously regulate the hydraulic variable
displacement pump and the engine speed.
The hydrostatic drive enables the speed to be
continuously varied in both directions, ranging
from standstill up to maximum speed. The
dual-pedal control means that operation of the
forklift truck is simple, safe, non-fatiguing and
efficient.
The driver always has both hands free for
steering and controlling the operational
movements. This results in fast reversing
and efficient stacking.
An optional version is also available whereby
the speed is regulated by an accelerator pedal
(single-pedal operation) and the direction of
travel controlled by means of a travel direction
switch.
To control the operational movements lifting,
lowering and tilting, there is only one actuating
lever (joystick). Another joystickisfittedto
operate additional attachments. Operational
movements can also be controlled using
two or four joysticks (single-lever operation
version).
Linde Load Control
The truck’s Linde Load Control (LLC) system
enables:
• Millimetre-perfect and secure mast han-
dling
• Effortless finger-tip control of all lift mast
functions
• Drive and lifting functions are entirely
separate.
4 Operating Instructions – 393 807 1001 EN – 08/2008

Introduction 1
Reception of forklift truck
Linde Truck Control
The truck’s Linde Truck Control system (LTC)
provides for:
• Sensitive, smooth driving and reversing
• Automatic regulation of the engine speed to
match the respective power required by the
hydraulics
• Fast service by means of self-diagnosis
• Optimum operational reliability.
Brakes
The hydrostatic drive is used as a service
brake. This means that the service brake is
maintenance-free. There are two multi-disc
brakes integrated into the wheel motors, which
are used as a parking brake. The multi-disc
brakes are engaged when the engine is
switched off. This gives the truck an automatic
braking function. The parking brake must
always be activated when the truck is switched
off.
Steering
The steering is a hydrostatic steering system,
under which the steering wheel acts on the
steering cylinder to actuate the rear wheels.
If the power applied to the steering wheel is
increased, the steering system can also be
operated when the engine has been switched
off.
Lift mast
The free-view lift mast enables:
• Ideal visibility through slim mast profiles
• Full load capacity up to maximum lift heights
• Enormous residual lifting capacity
• Maintenance-free bearings for lift mast and
tilt cylinders via rubber-cushioned linkage
points
• Electric tilt angle limitation.
Electrical system
The electrical system is supplied with 12 V DC
by the alternator. A 12 V battery with 88 Ah is
installed to start the engine. It is located under
the driver’s seat in the engine compartment.
Truck operation when using a shovel
When operating the truck with a shovel, stall
protection can be activated by your authorised
dealer.
In this case, extreme loading of the drive
engine due to the associated engine speed
decrease leads to a slight delay in executing
the working hydraulics.
NOTE
For a period of extended loadingofthe
engine, the joystick must be switched to the
zero position in order to release the working
hydraulics again.
Reception of forklift truck
Before the truck leaves our factory, it is
subjected to a careful inspection to ensure
that it is in perfect condition and is received
by you complete with all equipment according
to your order. Your authorised dealer is also
obliged to perform another inspection and
proper handover.
To avoid subsequent complaints, please be
so kind as to carefully check the condition
of the truck and the completeness of the
equipment yourself and to confirm proper
handover/takeover vis-à-vis your dealer.
Operating Instructions – 393 807 1001 EN – 08/2008 5

1Introduction
Service plan before initial start-up
NOTE
For forklift trucks which leave our works
without a lift mast, an additional stop screw
for speed restriction can be found under
the forwards/reversing accelerator pedal
(two-pedal operation) or accelerator pedal
(one-pedal operation. This screw must be
removed after attaching the mast by loosening
the screw and removing it along with the aid of
a hexagonal nut (see also Driving without lift
mast).
Each forklift truck comes with the following
technical documents:
• operating manual for forklift truck
• EC Declaration of Conformity (manufac-
turer confirms that industrial truck complies
with requirements of EC Machinery Direc-
tive).
• Safety rules for the use of industrial trucks
(VDMA)
• Registration document for the industrial
truck, provided on handover by your autho-
rised dealer.

enclosed with these operating instructions
must be brought to the attention of the persons
responsible, in particular to those persons
concerned with operating and maintaining the
trucks, before working with or on the trucks.
The operating company must ensure that the
driver understands all the safety information.
Please comply with the regulations and
guidelines, e.g.
• Operation of industrial trucks,
• Driving licence,
• Rules for driveways and the area of opera-
tion,
• Rights, duties and rules of behaviour for the
driver,
• Special operating areas
• Information regarding setting off,driving
and braking,
• Information for maintenance and repair,

racking commence.
Safety instructions
DANGER
The truck must not be used by unauthorised per-
sons.
As the operator, you must ensure that access to the
truck is only possible for authorised personnel.
DANGER
Safety devices (e.g. the seat switch) are there for
your safety.
Safety devices—of whatever kind—must never be
disabled.
DANGER
When retrofitting a 3rd auxiliary hydraulic system,
using solutions other than those recommended by
the truck manufacturer will render CE conformity
null and void and is therefore expressly forbidden.
Trucks may only be retrofitted with a 3rd auxiliary
hydraulic system with the approval of the truck
manufacturer.
DANGER
It is prohibited to connect any safety critical func-
tions such as a bale clamp or the swivel device for
a fluid container to any third auxiliary hydraulic sys-
tem that may be fitted.
To prevent the clamp or swivel opening inadver-
tently, the additional function should be connected
to the first auxiliary hydraulic system.
DANGER
Any additional drilled holes or welding to the over-
head guard will compromise its secure positioning.
It is therefore strictly forbidden to drill holes in the
overhead guard or to weld to it.
CAUTION
Welding operations on other parts of the vehicle
can cause damage to the electronics.
Therefore, before performing any welding, always
disconnect the battery and all connections to the
electronic control units.

Safety 2
Inthecaseoftip-over
CAUTION
For ease of operation, various functions on your
truck are gas-spring assisted. Gas springs are
complex components which contain high internal
pressures (up to 300 bar).
They may under no circumstance be opened unless
so directed, and may be removed only when not
under compression. Any damage, lateral forces,
buckling, temperatures in excess of 80°C and
heavy soiling must generally be avoided. Damaged
or defective gas springs must be changed immedi-
ately. Please contact your authorised dealer. He
will, if necessary, depressurise the gas spring in
accordance with regulations before dismantling it.
Gas springs must be depressurised before recyc-
ling.
WARNING
The following issues must be observed when an
accumulator is fitted. Improper handling of the
accumulator can lead to serious injuries.
Before working on the accumulator, it must be
depressurised. Please contact your authorised
dealer.
WARNING
Depending on the duration of
operation and use, components
carrying exhaust gases and exhaust
air can become hot.
Therefore wear protective clothing.
WARNING
The forklift truck working area must be adequately
lit.
If it is insufficiently lit, work lights must be installed
to ensure that the driver can see properly
CAUTION
Various items of special equipment fitted to your
truck have the "speed reduction" special function
. It is purely an assistance function. This means
that the driver must not rely solely on the "speed
reduction" function during operation.
The driver is always responsible for safe operation.
CAUTION
The functioning of medical equipment, e.g. pace
makers or hearing aids, may be impaired when
driving.
Check with a doctor or the medical equipment
manufacturer whether the equipment is sufficiently
protected against electromagnetic interference.
In the case of tip-over
• Stay buckled up
• Don’t jump
• Hold on tight
• Brace feet
•Leanaway
