INSTRUCTIONS TO THE COMPANY MANAGER
THE SITE
Proper management of telehandler's area of travel will reduce the risk of accidents:
• ground not unnecessarily uneven or obstructed,
• no excessive slopes,
• pedestrian traffic controlled, etc.
THE OPERATOR
- Only qualified, authorized personnel can use the telehandler. This authorization is given in writing by the appropriate
person in the establishment with respect to the use of telehandlers and must be carried permanently by the operator.
pExperience has shown that there are a number of inappropriate ways in which the telehandler might be used. Such
foreseeable misuse, of which the main examples are listed below, are strictly forbidden.
- The foreseeable abnormal behaviour resulting from ordinary negligence, but which does not result from any wish to
put the machinery to any improper use.
- The reex reactions of a person in the event of a malfunction, incident, fault, etc. during operation of the telehandler.
- Behaviour resulting from application of the “principle of least eort” when performing a task.
- For certain machines, the foreseeable behaviour of such persons as: apprentices, teenagers, handicapped persons,
trainees tempted to drive a telehandler, operators tempted to operate the machine to win a bet, in competition or for
their own personal experience.
The person in charge of the equipment must take these criteria into account when assessing whether or not a person
will make a suitable driver.
THE TELEHANDLER
A - THE TELEHANDLER'S SUITABILITY FOR THE JOB
- MANITOU has ensured that this telehandler is suitable for use under the standard operating conditions defined in
this operator's manual, with a STATIC test coefficient of 1.33 and a DYNAMIC test coefficient of 1, as specified in
harmonised standard EN 1459 for variable reach trucks.
- Before commissioning, the company manager must make sure that the telehandler is appropriate for the work to be
done, and perform certain tests (in accordance with current legislation).
B - ADAPTATION OF THE TELEHANDLER TO STANDARD ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- In addition to series equipment mounted on your telehandler, many options are available, such as: road lighting, stop
lights, revolving light, reverse lights, reverse alarm sound, front light, rear light, light at the boom head, etc. (according
to the telehandler model).
- The operator must take into account the operating conditions to specify the telehandler's signaling and lighting
equipment. Contact your dealer
- Take into account climatic and atmospheric conditions of the site of utilisation.
• Protection against frost (e3 - MAINTENANCE: LUBRICANTS AND FUEL).
• Adaptation of lubricants (ask your dealer for information).
• Engine filtration (e 3 - MAINTENANCE: FILTER CARTRIDGES AND BELTS).
pFor operation under average climatic conditions, i.e.: between -15 °C and 35 °C, correct levels of lubricants in all the
circuits are checked in production. For use in harsher conditions, before setting o, lubricants must be changed and
topped up using lubricants appropriate to the ambient temperatures.
The same applies to the cooling liquid.
- Preventing fire risks associated with use in dusty and flammable conditions (e.g. straw, flour, sawdust, organic waste, etc.).
- A telehandler operating in an area without fire extinguishing equipment must be equipped with an individual extinguisher.
There are solutions, consult your dealer.
pYour telehandler is designed for outdoor use under normal atmospheric conditions and indoor use in suitably aerated
and ventilated premises.
It is prohibited to use the telehandler in areas where there is a risk of re or which are potentially explosive (e.g.
reneries, fuel or gas depots, stores of ammable products. etc.).
For use in these areas, specic equipment is available (ask your dealer for information).
- Our telehandlers comply with Directive 2004/108/EC concerning electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), and with the
corresponding harmonized standard EN 12895. Their proper operation is no longer guaranteed if they are used within
areas in which the electromagnetic fields exceed the limit specified by that standard (10 V/m).
- Directive 2002/44/EC prohibits company managers from exposing their employees to excessive levels of vibration.
There is no recognized code of measurement for comparing the machines of different manufacturers. The actual doses
received can only therefore be measured under actual operating conditions at the user's premises.

- The following are some tips for minimizing these vibration doses:
• Select the most suitable telehandler and attachment for the intended use.
• Adapt the seat adjustment to the operator's weight (according to telehandler model) and maintain it in good condition,
as well as the cab suspension. Inflate the tires in accordance with recommendations.
• Ensure that the operators adapt their operating speed to suit the conditions on site.
• As far as possible, arrange the site in such a way as to provide a flat running surface and remove obstacles and harmful
potholes.
C - MODIFICATION OF THE TELEHANDLER
- For your safety and that of others, you must not change the structure and settings of the various components used in your
telehandler (hydraulic pressure, calibrating limiters, engine speed, addition of extra equipment, addition of counterweight,
unapproved attachments, alarm sound systems, etc.) yourself. In this event, the manufacturer cannot be held responsible.
D - FRENCH ROAD TRAFFIC RULES
(or see current legislation in other countries)
- Only one EC declaration of conformity is issued. It must be kept in a safe place.
- The road traffic rules of telehandlers are subject to the provisions of the highway code, according to the following categories:
• Construction-type trucks (MT range): public works vehicle not predominantly for use on roads (point 6.9 of Article R311-1 of the French Highway Code). The telehandler
must have a 25 disc displayed on the rear of the vehicle and an operating licence plate.
• Agricultural-type trucks (MLT range) that are non-EC type approved tractors: (point 6.2 of Article R311/1 of the French Highway Code). The telehandler must be fitted
with an operating licence plate.
• Agricultural-type trucks (MLT range) that are EC type approved tractors: agricultural tractor type T1a (point 5.1.1 of Article R311/1 of the French Highway Code). The
telehandler must be registered.
SPECIAL INSTRUCTION APPLYING TO "EC TRACTOR" TYPE-APPROVED TELEHANDLERS
- All EC tractor type-approved telehandlers are supplied with an "EC tractor" certificate complying with directive 2003/37/EC, to be retained by the owner, and a page of
administrative details together with a CNIT number (national type approval code) for registration at the prefecture.
- The telehandler owner is responsible for carrying out the necessary procedures for obtaining the vehicle registration document within the time limit defined by the regulations.
- The operator must hold a category B driver's licence, unless granted an exemption.
- The telehandler must be driven on the public highway in accordance with the instructions given in the manual supplied with the telehandler (Gross weight, Gross combination
weight, towing load, axle loads, maximum speeds, etc. according to type/version). The operator must be in possession of the telehandler’s registration document.
pWhen towing a trailer or agricultural equipment, the travelling speed of the telehandler is limited to 25 km/h (15.5
mph). In this case, a "25" disc must be axed to the rear of the convoy.
E - TELEHANDLER CAB PROTECTION
- All telehandlers comply with the requirements of ISO 3471 (wheel loader code) regarding cab rollover protection (ROPS)
and ISO 3449 (Level II) regarding the protection of the cab against falling objects (FOPS).
- "EC TRACTOR" type-approved telehandlers comply, in addition, with Directive 79/622/EC (OECD Code 4) regarding cab
rollover protection (ROPS).
pStructural damage or overturning, a modication, changes or a poorly executed repair can reduce the protective
eciency of the cab, cancelling its compliance. Do not perform welding or drilling on the cab structure. Consult your
dealer to determine the limits of this structure without cancelling its compliance.

1 - 11
- Travelling on a longitudinal slope:
• Drive and brake gently.
• Moving without load: Forks or attachment facing downhill.
• Moving with load: Forks or attachment facing uphill.
- Take into account the telehandler’s dimensions and its load before trying to negotiate a narrow or low passageway.
- Never climb up onto a loading platform without first checking the following:
• It has been properly installed and secured.
• The unit to which it is connected (wagon, lorry, etc.) can not shift.
• This platform is prescribed for the total weight of the telehandler to be loaded.
• This platform is prescribed for the size of the telehandler.
- Never climb up onto a foot bridge, floor or freight lift, without being certain that they are prescribed for the weight and
size of the telehandler to be loaded and without having checked that they are in sound working order.
- Be careful in the area of loading bays, trenches, scaffolding, soft ground and manholes.
- Make sure the ground is stable and firm under the wheels and/or stabilizers before lifting or removing the load. If necessary,
add sufficient wedging under the stabilizers.
- Make sure that the scaffolding, loading platform, pilings or ground is capable of bearing the load.
- Never stack loads on uneven ground, they may tip over.
pIf the load or the attachment must remain above a structure for a long time, there is the risk that it will rest on the
structure because of the boom descending owing to the oil in the cylinders cooling down.
To eliminate this risk:
- Regularly check the distance between the load or the attachment and the structure and readjust this if necessary.
- If possible, use the telehandler with the oil temperature as close as possible to ambient temperature.
- When working near aerial lines, ensure that the safety distance is sufficient between the working area of the telehandler
and the aerial line.
pYou must consult your local electrical agency.
You could be electrocuted or seriously injured if you operate or park the telehandler too close to power cables.
In the event of high winds, do not carry out handling work that jeopardises the stability of the telehandler and its load,
particularly if the load catches the wind badly.
- Prevent fire risks associated with use in dusty and flammable conditions (e.g. straw, flour, sawdust, organic waste, etc.).
D - VISIBILITY
- The safety of people within the telehandler's working area, as well as that of the telehandler itself and the operator are
depend on good operator visibility of the telehandler's immediate vicinity in all situations and at all times.
- This telehandler has been designed to allow good operator visibility (direct or indirect by means of rear-view mirrors)
of the immediate vicinity of the telehandler while travelling with no load and with the boom in the transport position.
- Special precautions must be taken if the size of the load restricts visibility towards the front:
• moving in reverse,
• site layout,
• assisted by a person directing the manoeuvre (while standing outside the telehandler's area of travel), making sure
to keep this person clearly in view at all times,
• in any case, avoid reversing over long distances.
- Certain special attachments may require the telehandler to travel with the boom in the raised position. In such cases,
visibility on the right hand side is restricted, and special precautions must be taken:
• site layout,
• assisted by a person directing the manoeuvre (while standing outside the telehandler's area of travel).
• replacement of a suspended load by a load on a pallet.
- If visibility of your road is inadequate, ask someone to assist by directing the manoeuvre (while standing outside the
telehandler's area of travel), making sure to keep this person clearly in view at all times.
- Keep all components affecting visibility in a clean, properly adjusted state and in good working order (e.g. windscreens,
windows, windscreen wipers, windscreen washers, driving and work lights, rear-view mirrors).

E - STARTING THE TELEHANDLER
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
pThe telehandler must only be started up or manoeuvred when the operator is sitting in the driver’s cab, with his seat
belt adjusted and fastened.
- Never try to start the telehandler by pushing or hauling it. Such an operation may cause severe damage to the
transmission. If necessary, towing requires the transmission to be put in neutral (e3 - MAINTENANCE: OCCASIONAL
OPERATION).
- If using an emergency battery for start-up, use a battery with the same characteristics and respect battery polarity when
connecting it. Connect at first the positive terminals before the negative terminals.
p
Failure to respect polarity between batteries can cause serious damage to the electrical circuit.
The electrolyte in the batteries may produce an explosive gas. Avoid ames and generation of sparks close to the
batteries.
Never disconnect a battery while it is charging.
INSTRUCTIONS
- Check the closing and locking of the hood(s).
- Check that the cab door is closed.
- Check that the forward/reverse selector is in neutral, and that the parking brake is engaged.
- Press on the service brake pedal and maintain it down.
- Turn the ignition key to the position I to activate the electrical and pre-heating system.
- Check the fuel level on the indicator.
pIt is forbidden to press the accelerator pedal when starting the engine
- Turn the ignition key fully, the engine should then start. Release the ignition key and let the engine run at idle.
- Do not engage the starter motor for more than 15 seconds and carry out the preheating between unsuccessful attempts.
- Make sure all the warning lamps on the instruments panel are off.
- Check all control instruments when the engine is warm and at regular intervals during use, so as to quickly detect any
faults and to be able to correct them without any delay.
- If an instrument does not show the correct display, stop the engine and immediately carry out the necessary operations.
F - DRIVING THE TELEHANDLER
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
pOperators' attention is drawn to the risks involved in using the telehandler, in particular:
- Risk of loosing control.
- Risk of losing lateral and frontal stability of the telehandler.
The operator must remain in control of the telehandler. In the event of the telehandler overturning, do not try to leave
the cabin during the incident.
YOUR BEST PROTECTION IS TO STAY FASTENED IN THE CABIN.
- Observe the company’s traffic regulations or, by default, the public highway code.
- Do not carry out operations which exceed the capacities of your telehandler or attachments.
- Always drive the telehandler with the forks or attachment to the transport position, i.e. at 300 mm (11.8 in) from the
ground, the boom retracted and the carriage sloping backwards.
- Only carry loads which are balanced and properly anchored to avoid any risk of a load falling off.
- Ensure that palettes, cases, etc, are in good order and suitable for the load to be lifted.
- Familiarise yourself with the telehandler on the terrain where it will be used.
- Ensure that the service brakes are working properly.
-The loaded telehandler must not travel at speeds in excess of 5 km/h. (3.1mph).
- Drive smoothly at an appropriate speed for the operating conditions (land configuration, load on the telehandler).
- Do not use the hydraulic boom controls when the telehandler is moving.
- Never change the steering mode whilst driving.
- Do not manoeuvre the telehandler with the boom in the raised position unless under exceptional circumstances and
then with extreme caution, at very low speed and using gentle braking. Ensure that visibility is adequate.
