3.0 How to operate the Logiflex

6
The mast lifting capacity and the corresponding centre of
gravity distance are given by the pictogram on the side of the
mast.
The lifting capacity of the mast is the same as the max. lifting
capacity of the product.
Max. lifting capacity is set on the safety valve of the product.
Marking
4.0Optimumsafety
4.1 Avoid overloads
The maximum load must not be exceeded. Remember,that theLogiflex is designed for
evenly distributed load, - goods on pallets etc. If the forks are point-loaded on one
side, there is a risk of bending.
4.2 Avoid offset loads
The load must be evenly distributed. The maximum centre of gravity distance from
the front of the fork mast (given on the truck) must not be exceeded.Agreater
distance reduces the level of safety and increases the risk of toppling.
Goods on pallets, etc. must be properly secured, so that they cannot fall off during
transport, when the truck is lifted, or when the truck must remain lifted for a time.

4.3 Driving loaded
4.4 Emergency braking
If it becomes necessary to use the load as a brake to prevent the Logiflex from
running away, activate the DOWN button quickly, until the load reaches the ground.
The Logiflex is designed for use on even and level floor. During transport the forks
shall be raised as little as possible. Transport with raised forks should be made over
the shortest possible distances and at low speed.

8
33 Safety regulations
- Never walk under a raised load!
- Before lowering the forks, make certain that no foreign
elements can hinder the free lowering of the forks.
- The Logiflex is designed for use on an even and level floor.
- During transport the forks shall be raised as little as
possible.
- Transport with raised forks should be made over the
shortest possible distances and at low speed.
- Check that the chains lift equally. They shall be equally
tight when the forks are loaded.
- Chains and chain bolts must not be damaged.
Chains that have become permanently stretched
(max. 2% of original length) must be scrapped.

5.1 Battery specifications
The manufacturer offers two different battery types recommended
fortheelectricalLogiflex
5.0 Theremustbeacurrentsupply
Note 1: The battery can be charged, irrespective of how much it is discharged.
Battery life: 300 cycles at 80% = approx. 600 cycles at 50%
Note 2: Longest battery life obtained, when the battery is charged on being 80%
discharged. 1 charge = 1 cycle
Dry-charged batteries must be filled with battery acid 37.5% H2SO4specific gravity 1.28,
before they are used for the first time.

5.2 Checking the battery
MethodA
Check the acid density in the six battery cells with an acidometer.
Checkeach cell - max. difference between each cell 0.04 kg/l.
5.3 Battery charging
Charging must be performed with a charger, correctly set with the
charging voltage for the battery type, see point 5.1.
The manufacturer recommends a charger of 10-15Amp capacity.
During charging, the temperature in the battery must not exceed
50°C.
Charging simultaneously with truck operation is not recommended.
5.4 Warnings and information on battery
Avoid the use of naked flame near the tubular cell and
semi-trak batteries. The charging of tubular cell and semi-trak
batteries gives off gases that can be explosive. Therefore charging
should be performed in a ventilated room.
At temperatures around the freezing point, battery capacity is
reduced by 30%.
MethodB
To measure the voltage, use a digital voltmeter (DC) on the
battery poles. The truck must not have been in use for the
previous 30 minutes.

Do not use the product, as the battery can be
permanently damaged.
Green: Batterycapacity: 25% - 100%
The product is ready for use and need not be charged.
Yellow: Charging lamp: Is alight during the last part of the
charging.

5.6 Wiring connections
Manyoperationaldisturbancesarecausedby badconnectionsin
theelectricalcircuit. Make sure that theconnectionsare
inorder.
Check connections regularly for damage at insulating caps or bad
connections at plugs, etc.
Verdigris must be removed from cable plugs. Keep all screw/nut
connections tight.

6.0 Long live the Logiflex
Regular inspection and the replacement of worn or defective parts in good time will
prolong the life of the Logiflex.
"Prevention is better than repair", therefore ensure:
- Correct usage
- Regular cleaning
- Periodic safety inspection
- Regular adjustment
6.1 Lubrication and hydraulic oil
Under normal operation conditions the Logiflex requires no
lubrication.All ball bearings are sealed and lubricated for life,
and moving parts have self-lubricating bearings or are treated
with molybdenum disulphide grease.
The hydraulic system is filled with hydraulic oil of viscosity class
ISO VG 32.An additive is added to the oil:
- Wynn’s Hydraulic Systems Concentrate.
The concentrate reduces friction and wear and protects against
corrosion.
Pre-mixedhydraulic oil with additive is available from the dealer.
The oil is suitable for use in the temperature range -10 to +50° C.
A thinner oil is recommended for temperatures lower than -10° C
(if necessary, contact your dealer).
6.2 Oil change
Drainingtheoil:
1. Bring the unloaded forks down to the lowest position.
2. Most of the oil can be drained by loosening the hydraulic
hose union and briefly activating the hydraulic pump with the
switch.
3. The remaining oil can be drained from the oil tank by taking
off the twelve clips on the pump and removing the tank.
Oil filling:
4. Fill oil through the filling hole on the tank.
5. Oil quantity:
ELF1001/1200&ELFS1001/1170 approx.3 litre
ELF1001/1400&ELFS1001/1370 approx.3 litre
ELF1001/1600&ELFS1001/1570 approx.3 litre
ELF1001/2050&ELFS1001/2020 approx.4 litre
ELF1001/2450&ELFS1001/2420 approx.4 litre
ELF1001/2850&ELFS1001/2820 approx.4 litre
ELF1001/3300 & ELFS1001/3270 approx.4.5litre
6. Refit the filling cap and bleed the system (6.6).

6.3 Fork adjustment
Two of the rollers on the fork bracket are mounted on eccentric
pins, so that they can be adjusted. The adjustable rollers are at
the top.
1. Loosen screw (pos. 91) (key width 5 mm).
2. Eccentric pins (pos. 56) (key width 8 mm) can now be turned
to give the necessary fork adjustment.
3. Adjustment must be made on both sides to ensure uniform
loading of the rollers.
6.4 Adjustment of lifting chain
The chains shall be adjusted so that they
liftequally. Shallbe equally tight. The
nuts (pos. 18) are to be adjusted (nut M12,
keywidth19 mm).
On straddle versions, the chains are to
keep the forks clear of the floor.

15
6.5 Adjustment of steering wheel chains
- Set the handle in its middle position.
- Adjust the nuts (1, 2, 3 and 4) and bring the wheels into parallel.
6.6 Bleeding the hydraulic system
With a load of 50-100 kg, the forks must be raised and lowered to top and
bottom position 2-3 times.
6.7 Cleaning
When cleaning the Logiflex, do not direct the jet onto bearings and
seals. Otherwise the grease will be washed out and the life of the equipment
shortened.
Cleaningoftheplastic screen (polycarbonate)
The screen is to be washed with slightly warm water added a neutral cleaning
material, and afterwards washed with clean water.
Use a soft sponge, a woollen cloth or a wash leather.
6.8 Lifting procedure
When lifting the product, please use a lifting line.
Never use sharp objects or
solvent cleaners when cleaning.

16
6.9 Adjustment of side play
(In the mast rolls of the right side of the fork bracket)
1. Screw (A) is loosened counter-clockwise, until resistance
disappears.
2. Turn the screw clockwise, until resistance appears. The following
1.5 to 2.5 turns of the screw will be a tightening of the spring (C).
3. When a larger resistance appears, make 0.25 turn counter-
clockwise, and the counter nut (B) will be tightened.
4. Pump the fork to its top position, and when lowering it has to
slide to the bottom. If this is not the case, loosen screwA, make c.
0.5 turn counter-clockwise and repeat point 4.
