INSTRUCTIONS TO THE COMPANY MANAGER
THE SITE
Proper management of stacker's area of travel can reduce the risk of accidents. The following basic precautions will contribute
to this :
- passageways must be kept in a good state of repair and free of obstructions,
- ramp gradients must not be too steep,
- pedestrian trac must be controlled.
THE OPERATOR
Only qualied, authorized personnel may use the stacker. This authorization is to be given in writing by the person in the
company, responsible for the use of the stacker, and must be carried by the operator at all times.
Experience has shown that there are a number of inappropriate ways in which the stacker 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 reex reactions of a person in the event of a malfunction, incident, fault, etc. during operation of the stacker,
•Behaviour resulting from application of the "principle of least eort" when performing a task,
•For certain machines, the foreseeable behaviour of such persons as : apprentices, teenagers, handicapped persons,
trainees tempted to operate a stacker, operators tempted to operate a stacker 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 operator.
THE STACKER
A - FITNESS OF THE STACKER FOR PURPOSE
MANITOU has ensured that this stacker is suitable for use under the standard operating conditions dened in this operator's
manual, with a STATIC test coecient of 1,33 and a DYNAMIC test coecient of 1, as specied in standard EN 1726-1 for industrial
trucks.
Before commissioning, the company manager must make sure that the stacker is suitable for the task to be performed,
and perform certain tests (in accordance with current legislation).
B - STACKER MODIFICATION
For your own safety and that of others, you must not change the structure and settings of the various components used in your
stacker by yourself (hydraulic pressure, limiter calibration, addition of extra equipment, unapproved tools, etc.). In this event,
the manufacturer cannot be held liable.
THE INSTRUCTIONS
The operator’s manual must be in good condition and available to the operator at all times.
Operator's manuals and any plates or stickers which are no longer legible or are damaged, must be replaced.
THE MAINTENANCE
Maintenance or repairs other than those detailed in part : 3 - MAINTENANCE must be carried out by qualied personnel (consult
your dealer) and under the necessary safety conditions to preserve the health of the operator and any third party.
Your stacker must be inspected periodically to ensure that it remains in compliance. The frequency of this inspection
is dened by the current legislation applying in the country in which the equipment is used.

- The state of the fork arms or the tool, that must show no visible signs of damage (deformation, cracking or heavy wear)
and that they are correctly attached to the tool holder,
- The operation of the hydraulic system (lifting and lowering), and that the unladen fork or tool lowers smoothly and without
jamming,
- The cover is correctly in place,
- The state of charge of the battery and its connections,
- The built-in charger is no longer connected to the mains supply and that the lead is correctly stored,
- Visually check the condition and tension of the lifting chain,
- That the safety devices are correctly installed and operational.
The operator must stop using the stacker and inform his line manager if his stacker is not in good working order or does
not comply with the safety notice.
The operator must also check that the tool used is suitable for the loads to be handled.
B - DRIVER'S OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Whatever his experience, the operator is advised to familiarise himself with the position
and operation of all the controls and instruments before operating the stacker.
Wear clothes suited for operating the stacker, avoid loosely-tting garments.
Make sure you have the appropriate protective equipment for the task to be
performed.

STACKY operating and safety instructions2012.12
Do not allow anybody to approach the working area of the stacker or to pass beneath
the load (g. C1).
Take into account the stacker’s dimensions and its load before trying to negotiate
a narrow or low passageway.
Never move onto a loading platform without having rst checked :
- that it is suitably positioned and made fast,
- that the unit to which it is connected (wagon, lorry, etc.) will not shift,
- that this platform is able to support the total weight of the stacker to be loaded,
- that this platform is suitable for the size of the stacker.
Ensure that the gradients of the ramps do not exceed those shown in the table of
technical characteristics of the machines. A smooth transition of slope must be ensured,
to avoid rubbing and damaging the underside of the chassis.
Never move the stacker onto a foot bridge, oor or freight lift, without being certain
that they are suitable for the weight and size of the laden stacker and without having
checked that they are in good condition.
Be careful in the area of loading bays, trenches, scaolding, soft ground and manholes.
Make sure that the scaolding, loading platform, pilings or ground is capable of bearing
the load.
Never stack loads on uneven ground, they risk to be toppled. In the event of high winds,
do not carry out handling work that jeopardises the stability of the stacker and its load,
particularly if the load catches the wind badly.
D - VISIBILITY
The safety of people within the stacker’s working area, as well as that of the stacker itself
and the operator depend on good operator visibility of the stacker's immediate vicinity
in all situations and at all times.
When travelling in the forward direction, the load behind the operator must not impair
visibility (g. D1).
When manœuvring in reverse, if the size of the load restricts visibility, request the
assistance of a person directing the manoeuvre (while standing outside the stacker's
working area) being sure to keep this person clearly in view at all times.
E - SWITCHING ON THE STACKER
STACKY stackers are manually propelled, electric lift stackers.
- Pull the red emergency stop button (3) (g. E1),
- Insert the key in the key switch and turn it clockwise to switch on the stacker

- Move the stacker smoothly at an appropriate speed for the operating conditions
(ground prole, load on the stacker),
- Do not use the lifting or lowering controls when the lift truck is moving,
- Approach bends, narrow passages or swing doors, as well as any sector where
visibility is reduced, at reduced speed,
- Make sure you are in control of your speed under all circumstances,
- Brake gently, never abruptly,
- Do not leave the stacker unattended with the load raised (g. F3),
- Look where you are going and always make sure you have good visibility along
the route,
- Leave a margin of safety when manoeuvring around obstacles,
- The operator must always remain uphill of the stacker on a ramp,
- Ramps must not be taken perpendicular to the axis of the slope,
- Never turn the stacker around on a ramp.
The operator must not move the stacker with the fork or tool in the raised position,
whether laden or unladen (g. F4).
The operator must not pass the load over a person when moving the stacker (g. F5).
INSTRUCTIONS
- Always move the stacker with the forks or tool in the transport position, i.e. at 150
mm from the ground,
- Place the tiller arm within the driving zone (2) (g. F6) in order to unlock the electrical
safety system,
- The orientation of the tiller arm determines the direction of the stacker,
- When moving the stacker, the operator must walk in front of the machine,
- Gradually push one of the buttery control switches up or down (1) (g. F7)
depending on the chosen direction of travel.
As the stacker is tted with an electronic speed controller, its speed is progressive and
increases according to the angular position of the buttery control switch.
- To brake the stacker, release the buttery control switch, which will return to the
neutral position, gradually bringing the stacker to halt,
- To stop the stacker, fully lower or raise the tiller arm (1) (g. F6) or (3) (g. F6), which
will actuate the electrically-operated brake.
The tiller arm automatically returns to the vertical position as soon as it is released.
The parking brake is then operated, stopping the stacker immediately.
The end of the tiller arm is tted with an anti-crushing safety device (2) (g. F7) that
protects the operator by reversing the direction of travel as soon as it is pressed. The
stacker will only stop when the pressure on the safety device stops or after 5 seconds.
This only applies when the stacker is in forward mode.
The button with a tortoise symbol (3) (g. F7) moves the stacker at slow speed. This
function is very useful when manœuvring in conned spaces. When the button is
activated, the stacker travels at 30 % of its nominal speed. This function can be used
regardless of the control lever position (brake or drive).
- Hold down the slow speed (tortoise) button (3) (g. F7),
- Push the buttery control switch up or down (1) (g. F7) according to the chosen
direction of travel.

It is formally forbidden to smoke or use a ame nearby when performing these
operations.
Never place metal objects on the battery.
Bracelets, chains or watches must not be worn to avoid accidental shot circuits.
All the operations described above must be carried out with the machine shut down
(the multifunction display will be switched OFF in this case).
INSTRUCTIONS
Charging must be carried out in a well-ventilated space. Check that there are no
ammable materials or machines generating sparks within a 2 m radius around
the machine during charging.
Fire protection equipment is to be made available nearby.
- Unplug the charging lead (1) (g. H1) from the dummy socket on the fork side
and connect it to a 220V - 50 Hz - 10 A single phase socket.
The charger is tted with an indicator lamp (2) (g. H1), the colour of which indicates
the dierent levels of battery charge (g. H2) :
• the indicator lamp is red during the initial charging phase,
• the indicator lamp is yellow when the battery reaches 80 % charge,
• the indicator lamp is green when the battery is fully charged.
- Unplug the charging lead and reconnect it to the dummy socket, taking care
to return the lead to its housing.
CAUTION : When the mains lead is disconnected from the dummy socket
(1) (g. H1), all of the stacker’s controls will be disabled. The operator must the-
refore reconnect the mains lead to the dummy socket in order to use the stacker.
If charging is carried out at night, check that the current is not switched o by the
general shut-down of the establishment.
Never discharge a battery beyond 80 %,

1-12 STACKY operating and safety instructions 2012.12
INSTRUCTIONS FOR HANDLING A LOAD
A - CHOICE OF TOOL (EXCEPT STACKY 14)
Only tools approved or authorised by the manufacturer are to be used on its stackers.
Check that the tool is appropriate for the task to be performed.
Certain specic applications require non-standard stackers to be used. These stackers have dedicated tools that
are not interchangeable.
Make sure the tool is correctly installed and secured to the stacker’s carriage.
Make sure that your stacker tools work properly.
Do not exceed the rated capacity of the tool.
Never lift a load in a sling without the tool intended for this purpose, as the sling risks to
slip (see : INSTRUCTIONS FOR HANDLING A LOAD : G - TAKING UP AND LAYING DOWN
A SUSPENDED LOAD).
B - WEIGHT AND CENTRE OF GRAVITY OF THE LOAD
You must know the weight and the centre of gravity of the load before you pick it up.
Never lift a load without knowing its weight and centre of gravity.
The maximum lifting capacity is indicated on the name plate located on the right-hand
side of the stacker’s xed mast.
The eective load capacity and the centre of gravity of the load are specic to the tool
tted on the stacker. These values are indicated on each tool’s name plate.
The lifting height and the centre of gravity dictate the maximum load that can be lifted.
These values are indicated on the stacker manufacturer’s plate located under the tiller
arm.
For irregularly shaped or asymmetric loads, determine the centre of gravity in the
transverse direction before handling and position the centre of gravity within stacker’s
longitudinal centreline (g. B1 et B2).
It is forbidden to directly place onto the fork or the tool, by external means, a load that
exceeds the eective capacity.
It is forbidden to move a load heavier than the eective capacity indicated
on the tool manufacturer's plate.
For loads with a moving centre of gravity (such as liquids), take account of the
variations in the centre of gravity in order to determine the load to be handled
and be vigilant and take extra care to limit these variations as far as possible.
C - PICKING UP A LOAD ON THE GROUND
- Approach the stacker perpendicular to the load, with the forks in the down position
(g.C1),
- Position the stacker on the centreline of the load, unless the volume of the load
is asymmetric (g. C2),
- Insert the fork under the load as far as it will go,
- Raise the load.
The load must be perfectly balanced, wedged or tied to its support to avoid any risk
of slipping or overturning.
Never lift a load from which certain elements could become detached and injure
the operator.
Never lift a load with a single fork arm.
Never lift a person with the stacker.
The operator must ensure that the arms are suciently widely spaced to ensure
the stability of the load.
The load must not extend more than 50 mm beyond the end of the fork.
The width of the load must not exceed two times the maximum external width
of the fork.
When using adjustable forks, beware of the risk of the risks of trapping
or crushing limbs when manually adjusting the arms of the forks.

D - PICKING UP AND SETTING DOWN A LOAD
Lifting and lowering are controlled by means of two buttons situated on the tiller
arm (1) and (2) (g. D1). These controls are duplicated to be equally accessible for left
or right hand use.
- To lift the load, press button (1) (g. D1),
- To lower the load, press button (2) (g. D1).
E - SETTING-DOWN A LOAD IN A STORAGE STRUCTURE
- As you approach the storage structure, slow the stacker to arrive at moderate speed,
- Position the stacker in front of its storage location,
- Check that no obstacle risks to be caught by the load, the fork or the tool during
lifting,
- Raise the load so that the underside is higher than the bearing surface (1) (g. E1).
Check that, when it is inserted into its housing, the load does not risk to catch any
lateral or horizontal part of the support structure.
- Operate a buttery control switch to move slowly forward until the load is above
its intended position, taking care not to knock against the storage structure with
the stacker (2) (g. E2),
- Slowly set down the load (3) (g. E3),
- Check the lifting chain tension : if it is slack, the fork is resting on the storage
structure. Raise the fork slightly by lightly pressing the UP button,
- Ensure that the area of manoeuvre is unobstructed,
- Slowly reverse the stacker by operating a buttery control switch to release the fork
(4) (g. F3), checking that it will not catch any obstacle as it is lowered,
- Lower the fork or tool into the down position.
In order to avoid the risk of destabilising or overturning the stacker during these
operations, take care not to :
•catch the load or tool,
•hit the bearing surface with the fork or the tool,
•drag the fork or tool across the bearing surface.

F - PICKING UP A LOAD IN A STORAGE STRUCTURE
- As you approach the storage structure, slow the stacker to arrive at moderate speed,
- Position the stacker in front of its storage location,
- Check that no obstacle risks to be caught by the fork or the tool as it is raised,
- Raise the fork so that the underside is slightly higher than the bearing surface
(1) (g.F1),
- Operate a buttery control switch to move slowly forward and insert the fork under
the load up to its heel (2) (g. F2), taking care not to knock against the storage
structure with the stacker. During this operation, the fork must not rub against the
bearing surface or the underside of the load (in which case the lifting belt would
slack).
The centre of gravity of the load must be located on the centreline of the stacker.
- Slowly raise the load until it is lofted o the bearing surface (3) (g. F2),
- Ensure that the area of manoeuvre is unobstructed,
- Slowly reverse the stacker to release the fork (4) (g. F3), checking that it will not
catch any obstacle as it is lowered,
- Lower the load (5) (g. F3) into the transport position, 150 mm from the ground.
In order to avoid the risk of destabilising or overturning the stacker during
these operations, take care not to :
•catch the load or tool,
•hit the bearing surface with the fork or the tool,
•drag the fork or tool across the bearing surface.
G - PICKING UP AND SETTING DOWN A SUSPENDED LOAD (EXCEPT STACKY 14)
The stacker must be tted with a special protective device when using the jib
arm tool : a non-return valve kit.
WARNING : Failure to follow the above instructions may lead the stacker to loose
stability and overturn.
CONDITIONS OF USE
- Jib arm is only to be used by trained personnel,
- The jib arm is only to be used indoors, on a at, horizontal and smooth oor
and windless conditions,
- The load capacity must be halved relative to the stacker’s rated load capacity
(the jib arm characteristics take account of this),
- The length of the sling or the chain shall be as short as possible to limit swinging
of the load,
- Lift the load vertically along its axis, never by pulling sideways or lengthways (g.G1).
HANDLING WITHOUT MOVING THE STACKER
- Ensure that there is no one between the load and the stacker.

H - TRAVELLING WITH A SUSPENDED LOAD (EXCEPT STACKY 14)
- Carry the load in the down position (max. 150 mm from the ground) with the shortest
possible boom length (g.H1),
- Secure the load (1) (g. H1),
- Take all precautions when moving high loads,
- The stacker must not travel at more than 0,4 m/s (1,5 km/h, i.e., one quarter walking
speed),
- Move and stop the stacker gently and smoothly to minimise swinging of the load.
If the load starts to swing, do not hesitate to stop and lower the jib to set down the load.
