ROUGH TERRAIN FORKLIFT TRUCK GENERAL SAFETY STANDARDS

STUDY THE OPERATOR/SERVICE MANUALS

The information in this manual provides general instructions for the safe operation and maintenance of your forklift truck. This information is vital and must be clearly understood by the operator and serviceman. Study this manual and the Rough Terrain Forklift Safety Manual (part no. 422494) thoroughly and carefully before operating or servicing your forklift. Contact your dealer or Manitou North America, Inc. if you have any questions concerning your forklift, its operation, service or parts. Keep both manuals in the literature box on the forklift available for reference. If either manual becomes illegible or is missing, contact your dealer for replacements immediately. This manual cannot cover every situation that might result in an accident. It is the responsibility of the operator to always remain alert for potential hazards and be prepared to avoid them!

ADDITIONAL RECOMMENDED LITERATURE:

ANSI / ITSDF B56.6 is the national consensus standard for rough terrain forklift trucks. It contains rules about forklift safety, maintenance, safe operation, training, and supervision. Forklift owners should learn this standard and make it available for their operators, service personnel, and supervisors. These standards can be obtained, free of charge, from the Industrial Truck Standards Development Foundation (ITSDF) on their website at www.itsdf.org. The following references are examples from the standard, addressing forklift operators:

A.) OPERATOR TRAINING QUALIFICATIONS

1.) The user shall ensure that operators understand that safe operation is the operator’s responsibility. The user shall ensure that operators are knowledgeable of, and observe, all safety rules and practices.

2.) Create an effective operator training program centered around user company’s policies, operating conditions, and rough terrain forklift trucks. The program should be presented completely to all new operators and not be condensed for those claiming previous experience.

3.) Information on operator training is available from several sources, including rough terrain forklift truck manufacturers, users, government agencies, etc.

4.) An operator training program should consist of the following: a.) careful selection of the operator, considering physical qualifications, job attitude, and aptitude; b.) emphasis on safety of stock, equipment, operator, and other personnel; c.) citing of rules and why they were formulated; d.) basic fundamentals of rough terrain forklift truck and component design as related to safety, e.g., in.-lb (N-m) loading, mechanical limitations, center of gravity, stability, etc.; e.) introduction to equipment, control locations, and functions. Explain how they work when used properly and problems when used improperly.

f.) supervise practice on operating course remote from normal activity and designed to simulate actual operations, e.g., lumber stacking, elevating shingles to the roof, etc.; g.) oral, written, and operational performance tests and evaluations during and at completion of the course; h.) refresher courses, which may be condensed versions of the primary course, and periodic “on job” operator evaluation; i.) understanding of nameplate data and operator instructions and warning information appearing on the rough terrain forklift truck.

B.) GENERAL SAFETY PRACTICES

1.) Rough terrain forklift trucks can cause injury if improperly used or maintained.

2.) Only authorized operators trained to adhere strictly to all operating instructions shall be permitted to operate rough terrain forklift trucks. Unusual operating conditions may require additional safety precautions, training, and special operating instructions.

3.) Modifications and additions which affect capacity or safe operation shall not be preformed without the manufacturer’s prior written approval. Where such authorization is granted, capacity, operation, and maintenance instruction plates, tags, or decals shall be changed accordingly.

4.) If the rough terrain forklift truck is equipped with front end attachment(s) or optional forks, the user shall see that the truck is marked to identify the forks or attachment(s), show the approximate weight of the truck and fork or attachment combination, and show the capacity of the truck with forks or attachment(s) at maximum elevation with load laterally centered.

5.) The user shall see that all nameplates and caution and instruction markings are in place and legible.

6.) The user shall consider that changes in load dimension may affect rough terrain forklift truck capacity.

ROUGH TERRAIN FORKLIFT TRUCK GENERAL SAFETY STANDARDS (cont.)

B.) GENERAL SAFETY PRACTICES (cont.)

7.) Where steering can be accomplished with either hand and the steering mechanism is of a type that prevents road reactions from causing the handwheel to spin (power steering or equivalent), steering knobs may be used. When used, steering knobs shall be of a type that can be engaged by the operator’s hand from the top and shall be within the periphery of the steering handwheel.

8.) Experience has shown that rough terrain forklift trucks which comply with stability requirements are stable when properly operated. However, improper operation, faulty maintenance, or poor housekeeping may contribute to a condition of instability and defeat the purpose of the requirements.

9.) Users shall give consideration to special operating conditions. The amount of forward and rearward tilt to be used is governed by the application. Although the use of maximum rearward tilt is allowable under certain conditions, such as traveling with the load lowered, the stability of a rough terrain forklift truck as determined by standardized tests does not encompass consideration for excessive tilt at high elevations or the operation of trucks with excessive off-center loads.

10.) Some of the conditions which may affect stability are ground and floor conditions, grade, speed, loading

(rough terrain forklift trucks equipped with attachments behave as partially loaded trucks even when operated without a load on the attachment), dynamic and static forces, improper tire inflation, and the judgement exercised by the operator.

C.) OPERATING SAFETY RULES AND PRACTICES

1.) Safe operation is the responsibility of the operator.

2.) This equipment can be dangerous if not used properly. The operator shall develop safe working habits and also be aware of hazardous conditions in order to protect himself, other personnel, the rough terrain forklift truck, and other material.

3.) The operator shall be familiar with the operation and function of all controls and instruments before undertaking to operate the rough terrain forklift truck.

4.) Before operating any rough terrain forklift truck, truck operators shall have read and be familiar with the operator’s manual for the particular truck being operated.

5.) Before starting to operate the rough terrain forklift truck: a.) be in operating position and fasten seat belt; b.) place directional controls in neutral; c.) apply brakes; d.) start engine.

6.) Do not start or operate the rough terrain forklift truck, any of its functions, or attachments from any place other than the designated operator’s position.

7.) Keep hands and feet inside the operator’s designated area or compartment. Do not put any part of the body outside the operator compartment of the rough terrain forklift truck.

8.) Never put any part of the body into the mast structure or between the mast and the rough terrain forklift truck.

9.) Never put any part of the body within the reach mechanism of the rough terrain forklift truck or other attachments.

10.) Understand rough terrain forklift limitations and operate the truck in a safe manner so as not to cause injury to personnel.

11.) Do not allow anyone to stand or pass under the elevated portion of any rough terrain forklift truck, whether empty or loaded.

12.) Do not permit passengers to ride on rough terrain forklift trucks.

13.) Check clearance carefully before driving under electrical lines, bridges, etc.

14.) A rough terrain forklift truck is attended when the operator is less than 25 ft (7.6m) from the truck, which remains in his view.

15.) A rough terrain forklift truck is unattended when the operator is 25ft (7.6m) or more from the truck, which remains in his view, or whenever the operator leaves the truck and it is not in his view.

16.) Before leaving the operator’s position: a.) bring rough terrain forklift truck to a complete stop; b.) place directional controls in neutral; c.) apply the parking brake; d.) lower load-engaging means fully, unless supporting an occupied elevated platform; e.) stop the engine; f.) if the rough terrain forklift truck must be left on an incline, block the wheels; g.) fully lower the load-engaging means.

17.) Maintain a safe distance from the edge of ramps, platforms, and other similar working surfaces.

18.) Do no move railroad cars or trailer with a rough terrain forklift truck.

INTRODUCTION TO SAFETY

ROUGH TERRAIN FORKLIFT TRUCK GENERAL SAFETY STANDARDS (cont.)

C.) OPERATING SAFETY RULES AND PRACTICES (cont.)

19.) Do not use a rough terrain forklift truck for opening or closing railroad car doors.

20.) In areas classified as hazardous, use only rough terrain forklift trucks approved for use in those areas.

21.) Report all accidents involving personnel, building structures, and equipment to the supervisor or as directed.

22.) Do not add to, or modify, the rough terrain forklift truck.

23.) Do not block access to fire aisles, stairways, and fire equipment.

24.) For rough terrain forklift trucks equipped with a differential lock, the lock should not be engaged when driving on the road or at high speeds or when turning. If the lock is engaged when turning, there could be loss of steering control.

25.) Observe all traffic regulations including authorized speed limits. Under normal traffic conditions, keep to the right, maintain a safe distance, based on speed of travel, from the truck ahead; and keep the truck under control at all times.

26.) Yield the right-of-way to pedestrians and emergency vehicles such as ambulances and fire trucks.

27.) Do not pass another truck traveling in the same direction at intersections, blind spots, or at other dangerous locations.

28.) Slow down and sound the audible warning device(s) at cross-aisles and other locations where vision is obstructed.

29.) Cross railroad tracks at an angle wherever possible. Do not park closer than 6 ft (1.8m) to the nearest rail of a railroad track.

30.) Keep a clear view of the path of travel and observe other traffic, personnel, and safe clearances.

31.) If the load being carried obstructs forward view, travel with the load trailing.

32.) Ascend or descend grades slowly and with caution.

a.) When ascending or descending grades in excess of 5%, loaded rough terrain forklift trucks should be driven with the load upgrade.

b.) Unloaded rough terrain forklift trucks should be operated on all grades with the load-engaging means downgrade.

c.) On all grades, the load and load-engaging means shall be tilted back, if applicable, and raised only as far as necessary to clear the road surface.

d.) Avoid turning, if possible, and use extreme caution on grades, ramps, or inclines; normally travel straight up or down.

33.) Under all travel conditions, operate the rough terrain forklift truck at a speed that will permit it to be brought to a stop in a safe manner.

34.) Travel with load-engaging means or load low and, where possible, tilted back. Do not elevate the load except during stacking.

35.) Make starts, stops, turns, or direction reversals in a smooth manner so as not to shift load and/or overturn the rough terrain forklift truck.

36.) Do not indulge in stunt driving or horseplay.

37.) Slow down for wet and slippery surfaces.

38.) Before driving over a dockboard or bridge plate, be sure that it is properly secured. Drive carefully and slowly across the dockboard or bridge plate, and never exceed its rated capacity.

39.) Do not drive rough terrain forklift trucks onto any elevator unless specifically authorized to do so.

Approach elevators slowly, and then enter squarely after the elevator car is properly leveled. Once on the elevator, neutralize the controls, shut off engine, and set brakes. It is advisable that all other personnel leave the elevator before truck is allowed to enter or leave.

40.) Avoid running over loose objects on the roadway surface.

41.) When negotiating turns, reduce speed to a safe level, and turn steering handwheel in a smooth sweeping motion. Except when maneuvering at a very low speed, turn the steering handwheel at a moderate, even rate.

42.) Use special care when traveling without load, as the risk of lateral overturning is greater.

43.) Improper use of stabilizer controls (if so equipped) could cause rough terrain forklift truck upset. Always lower the carriage before operating stabilizer controls.

44.) For rough terrain forklift trucks equipped with lateral leveling: a.) Always level the frame before raising the boom or mast, with or without a load.

b.) Lateral leveling should not be used to position an elevated load; instead, lower the load and reposition the rough terrain forklift truck.

45.) Handle only stable or safely arranged loads.

a.) When handling off-center loads which cannot be centered, operate with extra caution.

b.) Handle only loads within the capacity of the rough terrain forklift truck.

c.) Handle loads exceeding the dimensions used to establish rough terrain forklift truck capacity with extra caution. Stability and maneuverability may be adversely affected.

IV

INTRODUCTION TO SAFETY

ROUGH TERRAIN FORKLIFT TRUCK GENERAL SAFETY STANDARDS (cont.)

C.) OPERATING SAFETY RULES AND PRACTICES (cont.)

46.) When attachments are used, extra care shall be taken in securing, manipulating, positioning, and transporting the load. Operate rough terrain forklift trucks equipped with attachments as partially loaded trucks when not handling a load.

47.) Completely engage the load with the load-engaging means. Fork length should be at least two-thirds of load length. Where tilt is provided, carefully tilt the load backward to stabilize the load. Caution should be used in tilting backward with high or segmented loads.

48.) Use extreme care when tilting load forward or backward, particularly when high tiering. Do not tilt forward with load-engaging means elevated except to pick up or deposit a load over a rack or stack. When stacking or tiering, use only enough backward tilt to stabilize the load.

49.) The handling of suspended loads by means of a crane arm (boom) or other device can introduce dynamic forces affecting the stability of a rough terrain forklift truck. Grades and sudden starts, stops, and turns can cause the load to swing and create a hazard if not externally stabilized. When handling suspended loads: a.) do not exceed the truck manufacturer’s capacity of the rough terrain forklift truck as equipped for handling suspended loads.

b.) only lift the load vertically and never drag it horizontally; c.) transport the load with the bottom of the load and the mast as low as possible; d.) with load elevated, maneuver the rough terrain forklift truck slowly and cautiously, and only to the extent necessary to permit lowering to the transport position; e.) use tag lines to restrain load swing whenever possible.

50.) At the beginning of each shift and before operating the rough terrain forklift truck, check its condition, giving special attention to: a.) tires and their inflation pressure b.) warning devices c.) lights d.) lift and tilt systems, load-engaging means, chains, cables, and limit switches e.) brakes f.) steering mechanism g.) fuel system(s)

51.) If the rough terrain forklift truck is found to be in need of repair or in any way unsafe, or if it contributes to an unsafe condition, the matter shall be reported immediately to the user’s designated authority, and the truck shall not be operated until it has been restored to safe operating condition.

52.) If during operation the rough terrain forklift truck becomes unsafe in any way, the matter shall be reported immediately to the user’s designated authority, and the truck shall not be operated until it has been restored to safe operating condition.

53.) Do not make repairs or adjustments unless specifically authorized to do so.

54.) When refueling, smoking in the area shall not be permitted, the engine shall be stopped, and the operator shall not be on the rough terrain forklift truck.

55.) Spillage of oil or fuel shall be carefully and completely absorbed or evaporated and fuel tank cap replaced before restarting engine.

56.) Do not use open flames when checking electrolyte level in storage batteries, liquid level in fuel tanks, or the condition of LPG fuel lines and connectors.

57.) Do not lift personnel with the forklift. If the forklift must be used to lift people, precautions for the protection of the personnel must be taken (see ITSDF B56.6, chapter 5.15 Elevating Personnel).

V

ROUGH TERRAIN FORKLIFT TRUCK GENERAL SAFETY STANDARDS (cont.)

D.) SUSPENDED LOADS

A jib or truss boom should ONLY be used to lift and place loads when the machine is stationary and the frame is level. Transporting suspended loads must ALWAYS be done slowly and cautiously, with the boom and load as low as possible. Use taglines to restrict loads from swinging, to avoid overturn.

The handling of suspended loads by means of a truss boom or other similar device can introduce dynamic forces affecting the stability of the machine that are not considered in the stability criteria of industry test standards. Grades and sudden starts, stops and turns can cause the load to swing and create a hazard.

3.

4.

Guidelines for “Free Rigging / Suspended Loads”

1. DO NOT exceed the rated capacity of the telescopic handler as equipped for handling suspended loads. The weight of the rigging must be included as part of the load.

2.

During transport, DO NOT raise the load more than 12 inches (305 mm) above the ground, or raise the boom more than 45 degrees.

Only lift the load vertically – NEVER drag it horizontally.

5.

Use multiple pickup points on the load when possible. Use taglines to restrain the load from swinging and rotating.

Start, travel, turn and stop SLOWLY to prevent the load from swinging. DO NOT exceed walking speed.

6.

7.

8.

9.

10.

Inspect rigging before use. Rigging must be in good condition and in the U.S. comply with OSHA regulation §1910.184, “Slings,” or §1926.251, “Rigging equipment for material handling.”

Rigging equipment attached to the forks must be secured such that it cannot move either sideways or fore and aft. The load center must not exceed 24 inches (610 mm).

DO NOT lift the load with anyone on the load, rigging or lift equipment, and NEVER lift the load over personnel.

Beware of the wind, which can cause suspended loads to swing, even with taglines.

DO NOT attempt to use frame-leveling to compensate for load swing.

WARNING

U.S. OSHA regulations effective November 8, 2010 (29 CFR Part 1926, Subpart CC — Cranes and Derricks in

Construction) include requirements for employers that use powered industrial trucks («forklifts») configured to hoist (by means of a winch or hook) and move suspended loads horizontally. In particular, this regulation applies to any rough-terrain forklift (e.g., «telescopic handler») equipped with a jib or truss boom with a hook (with or without a winch), or a hook assembly attached to the forks. [Note: This regulation is in addition to the OSHA regulation that requires specific forklift operator training: §1910.178(l).]

When a forklift / telescopic handler is configured and used for hoisting, the employer must ensure that:

1. Forklift, lift equipment and rigging have been inspected (each shift, month and year) and are in good, safe condition and properly installed.

2.

3.

An operator’s manual and applicable load charts are on the forklift.

Work zone ground conditions can support the equipment and load. Any hazardous conditions in the work area have been identified, and the operator notified.

4. Equipment is being used within its rated capacity and in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

VI

5.

6.

Operator and crew members have been trained in the safe use and operation of the equipment, including how to avoid electrocution.

During use, no part of the equipment, load line or load will be within the minimum clearance distance specified by OSHA [10 feet (3.0 m), and more for lines rated over 50 kV] of any energized power line, and any taglines used are non-conductive.

7. In addition, for lift equipment with a rated capacity greater than 2000 lbs. (907 kg), the employer must ensure that: a.) An accessible fire extinguisher is on the forklift; b.) Monthly and annual inspections are performed and documented, and records retained (three months for monthly, one year for annual); c.) Before November 10, 2014, operators must have had the additional training and qualification / certification required by OSHA regulations §1926.1427 and §1926.1430.

Note: Refer to the full text of the OSHA crane regulation (29 CFR Part 1926, Subpart CC) for a detailed description

ROUGH TERRAIN FORKLIFT TRUCK GENERAL SAFETY STANDARDS (cont.)

CONCLUSION:

1.) ATTEND OPERATOR TRAINING CLASSES

The forklift operator must clearly understand all instructions concerning the safe operation of the forklift and all safety rules and regulations of the work site. They must have successfully completed a training coarse in accordance with the Powered Industrial Truck Standard (29 CFR 1910.178) as described by the Occupational

Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). They must be qualified as to their visual, hearing, physical, and mental ability to operate the equipment safely. NEVER use drugs or alcohol while operating a forklift! NEVER operate or allow anyone to operate a forklift when mental alertness or coordination is impaired! An operator on prescription or over-the-counter drugs must consult a medical professional regarding any side effects of the medication that may impair their ability to safely operate the forklift.

2.) CREATE A MAINTENANCE PROGRAM

OSHA recommends a maintenance log, listing repairs requested and completed, for each forklift. Also, “lock out tag procedures” should be utilized. If the forklift malfunctions; park it safely, remove the key, tag “Do Not

Use”, and report the problem to the proper authority or authorized service personnel immediately.

ROUGH TERRAIN FORKLIFT TRUCK GENERAL SAFETY STANDARDS (cont.)

2.) CREATE A MAINTENANCE PROGRAM (cont.)

For the best forklift performance and operation, a maintenance program is required. Use the hour meter on the instrument panel to keep maintenance properly scheduled (see SECTION TWO — “Servicing Schedule”).

For repairs on major components (engine, transmission, etc.), contact your nearest dealer for a Repair Manual.

Do not operate a forklift that is damaged or does not function properly. Only authorized personnel may make repairs or adjustments to the lift truck. After repairs, the lift truck must be tested for safe operation before returning to service.

3.) FORKLIFT KNOWLEDGE

Forklift trucks can cause serious injury if improperly used or maintained. Study all of the manuals provided for your forklift model. Learn the locations and meanings of all safety decals. If any decals are illegible or missing, have them replaced immediately. Make sure all safety features provided by the original manufacturer are in place and function properly. Do not operate a forklift with damaged, missing or unsafe components. Have it repaired by authorized service personnel. Learn the functions of all controls, gauges, indicator lights, etc. on the forklift. Know the speed/gear ranges, braking and steering capabilities, load ratings and clearances. When referring to the location of forklift components, the terms “left”, “right”, “front”, and “rear” are related to the operator seated normally, facing forward in the operator’s seat. If you have any questions about the forklift, consult your supervisor. Failure to fully understand or obey safety warnings can result in serious injury or death!

4.) WORK SITE KNOWLEDGE

Before operating on a work site, learn the rules for movement of people, forklifts and all other traffic. Check the size, weight, and condition of the loads you will be expected to handle. Verify that they are properly secured and safe to transport. Learn where the loads are to be placed, planning your route for a safe approach, watching for hazardous conditions. Will a signal man be required to help place the load? Remove any debris which may cause tire damage or rupture. Plan your route around problem areas or have them corrected. Inform the supervisor of any unsafe conditions observed at the site. Examples of hazards: power lines, cables, low clearance structures, garage doors, telephone pole guide lines, fencing, loose lumber, building materials, drop-offs, trenches, rough/soft spots, oil spills, deep mud, steep inclines, railroad tracks, curbs, etc.. NEVER approach power lines, gas lines or other utilities with the forklift! Always verify that local, state/provincial and federal regulations have been met. Report any accidents involving personnel, building structures, and equipment to the supervisor immediately. Always remain alert — conditions are constantly changing at the work site!

TECHNICAL SUPPORT

All data provided in this manual is subject to production changes, addition of new models, and improved product designs.

INTRODUCTION TO SAFETY

SAFETY DECALS

The purpose of this chapter is to introduce you to the safety messages, decals, and nameplates found on your forklift truck. The decals are identified by name, part number, location, and a brief description. (The forklift model logos, and other misc. decals not shown, can be found in your forklift parts manual.) The decals illustrated may not be exactly the same as those installed on your forklift; installation of the decals varies depending on the forklift model, series, decal updates, etc.. The size and location of some decals limit the amount of information that can be placed upon it. For this reason, additional detailed information not found on the decals is provided through-out this manual.

Every decal placed on the lift truck is important; they are constant reminders of safety and instructions that should never be taken for granted. Even experienced operators can be seriously injured or killed by ignoring, refusing to enforce, or forgetting to follow safe operating procedures! Do not assume you know all safety issues concerning the decals. Before operating the lift truck; learn the meaning(s) of the decals as described in this manual. If any decal becomes illegible or missing, have it replaced immediately! Always replace decals using the same decal part no., unless otherwise specified by the manufacturer. For replacement decals not found in your parts manual, contact your nearest dealer. If you have any questions, contact your supervisor or nearest dealer for advice before operating your forklift!

In certain conditions (e.g. driving with a trailer) it is advised that a horizontal shock absorber be used. The driver’s seat is thus better able to absorb jerks in the direction of travel.

— Position 1: Horizontal shock absorber fitted.

— Position 2: Horizontal shock absorber removed.

LONGITUDINAL ADJUSTMENT (FIG. I)

— Adjust the locking lever until you reach the position required. This then locks and the seat will not shift into another position.

SERVICING (FIG. J)

Dirt may adversely affect the correct functioning of the seat. For this reason, make sure your seat is always clean.

— To clean or change the cushions, simply remove them from the seat frame.

CAUTION

A rocking head-rest increases the risk of an accident!

Avoid wetting the cushion fabric when cleaning. Check the resistance of the fabric on a small hidden area before using any fabric or plastic cleaner.

INTRODUCTION TO SAFETY

14 — ACCELERATOR PEDAL

NOTE: There is an OPTIONAL hand-operated accelerator in the cabin.

15 — SERVICE BRAKE PEDAL AND TRANSMISSION CUT-OFF

The pedal applies on the front and rear wheels by an hydraulic brake system, and allows the lift truck to be slowed down and stopped. Depending on the position of the transmission cut-off switch, it enables the free travel to cut off transmission (see: 2

— DESCRIPTION: 5 — SWITCHES PANEL).

16 — GEAR LEVER AND TRANSMISSION CUT-OFF

In order to change speeds, it is necessary to cut the transmission by pressing the button

1 on the lever.

1st gear: to the right, backwards.

2nd gear: to the right, forwards.

3rd gear: to the left, backwards.

4th gear: to the left, forwards.

USING THE GEARS ON THE GEAR BOX

— On these lift trucks with a torque converter, it is not necessary to automatically start up in

1st speed and progress up the gears.

4

3

1

2

1

CAUTION

The choice of transmission gear ratio should be made carefully according to the nature of the work being carried out. A poor choice may result in the rapid rise of the transmission oil temperature through excessive slipping of the converter, which could lead to serious damage to the transmission (it is essential to stop and change the working conditions if the transmission oil temperature indicator light comes on). This poor choice may also result in a reduction in the lift truck’s performance in forward gear. When the forward force increases, the forward speed in the gear (for example, in 3rd gear) may be lower than the forward speed that could be obtained with the 2nd instead of 3rd gear.

In general, we would advise you to use the following gears according to the nature of the work being carried out.

• On the road: Set off in 3rd gear and go up to 4th if the conditions and state of the road permit it. In hilly areas, set off in 2nd gear and go up to 3rd if the conditions and state of the road permit it.

• With a trailer on the road: Set off in 2nd gear and go up to 3rd if the conditions and state of the road permit it.

• Handling: 3rd gear.

2nd gear in restricted spaces.

• Loading (reclaiming with bucket, manure fork, etc.): 2nd gear.

• Earth moving: 1st gear.

SAFETY FOR MOVING THE LIFT TRUCK

Authorization to move the lift truck is controlled by an electronic unit. The operator must observe the following sequence to move the truck forwards or backwards:

1 — sit down correctly in the driver’s seat,

2 — release the parking brake,

3 — engage forward or reverse movement.

To stop the lift truck, he must observe the following sequence:

1 — Set the forward/reverse selector to neutral,

2 — engage the parking brake,

3 — get out of the lift truck.

NOTE: If the operator leaves the driving cab with forward or reverse engaged, a continuous alarm will sound. When this alarm sounds, the operator can simply sit back in the seat and continue advancing or reversing.

If the alarm contines, the operator must sit back in the seat, put the forward/reverse selector back in neutral and select forward or reverse if he wishes to continue moving.

C B A

IMPORTANT

The air conditioning operates only while the lift truck engine is running. During use, keep the doors and windows closed.

In the winter : To ensure correct operation and efficiency of the air conditioning unit, run the compressor once a week, for a few minutes, to lubricate the internal seals.

In cold weather : Warm the I.C. engine before switching on the compressor, this will allow the coolant that has collected in the liquid state at the lowest point of the compressor circuit to turn into gas by the heat given off by the I.C. engine (otherwise the compressor is liable to be damaged by pumping coolant in the liquid state when operated).

WARNING

If your air conditioning does not seem to be working properly, have it examined by your dealer (see : 3 — MAINTENANCE : H —

EVERY TWO YEARS “OPTION AIR CONDITIONING”). The air conditioning system is under high pressure, repairs must be made by a professional airconditioning repairman.

DESCRIPTION OF THE AIR CONDITIONING CONTROLS

A — Air conditioning system ON/OFF control switch with indicator lamp. Only works when control switch “C” set to 1, 2 or 3.

B — Air temperature control.

C — Air flow and fan speed control. When this control is set to “0” the air conditioning system will not work.

NOTE: Possible losses of water under the lift truck are due to condensate discharges caused by the drying effect of the installation, especially with high outside temperatures and high relative humidity.

For the air conditioning to perform properly, the air intakes must not be blocked by frost, snow or leaves.

When the facility is running, at least one of the cab air grilles must be open so as to avoid any risk of freezing to the evaporator.

HEATING MODE

The controls must be adjusted in the following way:

A — Control with signal light off.

B — At the required temperature.

C — To the desired position 1, 2 or 3.

INTRODUCTION TO SAFETY

TOWING PIN AND HOOK

Located at the rear of the lift truck, this device is used to attach a trailer. Its capacity is limited for each lift truck by the authorized gross vehicle weight, tractive effort and maximum vertical force on the coupling point. This information is given on the manufacturer’s plate fixed to each lift truck (see: 2 — DESCRIPTION: IDENTIFICATION OF THE LIFT TRUCK).

— To use a trailer, see current regulations in your country (maximum running speed, braking, maximum weight of trailer, etc.).

— Verify the trailer’s condition before using it (tire condition and pressures, electrical connection, hydraulic hose, brake system…).

WARNING

Do not tow a trailer or accessory which is not in proper working order. Using a trailer in poor condition may effect the lift truck’s steering and braking, and safety.

WARNING

If a third party helps in coupling or uncoupling the trailer, they must be continually visible to the driver until the lift truck is parked and the I.C. engine is turned off.

NOTE: There is an OPTIONAL rear-view mirror which allows the lift truck to be directed more closely to the trailer ring.

Manitou telehandler loaders Manuals PDF

The technical qualities and ergonomic design of the Manitou telehandler loaders distinguish it from loaders from other manufacturers. The firm has an outstanding reputation as the leading maker of agricultural and construction machines.

In the past several years, the business has introduced a whole new line of Manitou telehandlers, including nine new models with upgraded engines and gearboxes, but most notably with a modernized cab and excellent comfort levels.

The new cab has sound insulation. In addition, the sloping front windscreen improves all-around sight and rivals vehicle soundproofing.

All key controls are located on the reliable and durable JSM Joystick and Manitou Joystick Switch, fastened securely to the driver’s right armrest.

Dual shift buttons (DSB) have been effectively adopted in the manufacturer’s most recent models, allowing the driver to select whether specific tasks will be accessible from the armrest switch or the dashboard for convenience.

On the mechanical side, it is important to note that a 3.6-liter Deutz engine powers the equipment. It has three power settings ranging from 101 to 136 horsepower. Four transmission choices are available for harnessing this power, depending on the model.

The MLT 630-105 and MLT 733-105 with 101 horsepower using a four-speed gearbox. The former has a lifting height of 6 meters and a lifting capacity of 3 tons, while the latter has a lifting height of 6.9 meters and a lifting capacity of 3.3 tons. Both types include a 104 l/min hydraulic pump with peak speeds of 40 and 32 km/h, respectively.

The MLT 635-130 PS+ and MLT 737-130 PS+ models with 130 HP and 150 L/min oil pumps are the following to consider. They can lift 3.5 and 3.7 tons to 6.08 and 6.9 meters, respectively. PS+ denotes a PowershiftPlus gearbox with six forward ratios and three reverse gears. The system is either manually operated by the operator using a joystick or automatically using double-switch buttons.

The manufacturer’s greatest achievement is the MLT 630-105 models with the designation V CP. This indicates that they have an M-Variosift transmission. This two-speed hydrostatic gearbox has a first gear for peaceful travel between 0 and 18 kilometers per hour and a second for travel between 0 and 40 kilometers.

Innovative for Manitou is using a fully-featured continuously variable transmission (CVT), which is intended for consumers with extensive transportation requirements.

The new M-VarioPlus transmission has only one gear (0 to 40 km/h) yet provides optimal torque at low and high speeds. MLT 635-140, MLT 741-140, and MLT 940-140 are available. They all have a maximum power of 136 horsepower and a lifting capability of 3.5, 4.1, and 3.9 tons, rising from 6 to 9 meters. All of these loaders have 170 l/min of hydraulic flow.

These are functions designed to reduce operational expenses and are worth mentioning. There are a variety of “Eco” settings available on nearly all new versions of loading equipment. In addition, service intervals have been greatly increased, including a doubling of hydraulic oil life from 1,000 to 2,000 hours.

Standard on all models (except for the 733) is an inbuilt reversible fan for maximum cooling. In addition, a vast selection of lighting choices are available, most of which utilize LEDs.

The pricing of the Manitou loader is comparable to that of other manufacturers’ versions. Many of the series’ machines are inexpensive and of great quality and dependability.

Manitou MLT 635

The manufacturer may be pleased with the new MLT 635 – 130 PS+, which features a revised cab and enhanced performance. This permits the effective handling of weights up to 3,5 tons and 6.08 meters in height.
