The “Guidelines for the Correct Use and Application of Industrial Trucks” (VDMA) are
supplied with the truck. The guidelines form part of these operating instructions and
must be observed. National regulations apply in full.
The truck described in the present operator manual is an industrial truck designed for
lifting and transporting load units.
It must be used, operated and serviced in accordance with the present instructions.
Any other type of use is beyond the scope of application and can result in damage to
personnel, the truck or property. In particular, avoid overloading the truck with loads
which are too heavy or placed on one side. The data plate attached to the truck or the
load diagram are binding for the maximum load capacity. The industrial truck must not
be used in fire or explosion endangered areas, or areas threatened by corrosion or
excessive dust.
Proprietor responsibilities
For the purposes of the present operator manual the “proprietor” is defined as any
natural or legal person who either uses the industrial truck himself, or on whose behalf
it is used. In special cases (e.g. leasing or renting) the proprietor is considered the
person who, in accordance with existing contractual agreements between the owner
and user of the industrial truck, is charged with operational duties.
The proprietor must ensure that the truck is used only for the purpose it is intended for
and that danger to life and limb of the user and third parties are excluded.
Furthermore, accident prevention regulations, safety regulations and operating,
servicing and repair guidelines must be followed. The proprietor must ensure that all
truck users have read and understood this operator manual.
Failure to comply with the operator manual shall invalidate the warranty. The same
applies if improper work is carried out on the truck by the customer or third parties
without the permission of the manufacturer’s customer service department.
Attaching accessories
The mounting or installation of additional equipment which affects or supplements the
performance of the industrial truck requires the written permission of the manufacturer.

14
– Check the hydraulic oil level.
– Install the battery if necessary, (see "4.4 Battery removal and installation" ).
– Charge the battery, (see "4.3 Charging the battery").
2.3During brake-in
We recommended operating the machine under light load conditions for the first stage
of operation to get the most from it. Especially the requirements given below should
be observed while the machine is in a stage of 100 hours of operation.
1. Must prevent the new battery from over discharging when early used.
2. Perform specified preventive maintenance services carefully and completely.
3. Avoid sudden stop, starts or turns.
4. Oil changes and lubrication are recommended to do earlier than specified.
5. Limited load is 70~80% of the rated load.
15
3.Operation
Unauthorised Use of Truck: The driver is responsible for the truck during the time it
is in use. He shall prevent unauthorised persons from driving or operating the truck.
It is forbidden to carry passengers or lift personnel.
Damage and Faults: The supervisor must be immediately informed of any damage
or faults to the stacker. Trucks not safe for operation (e.g. wheel or brake problems)
must not be used until they have been rectified.
Repairs: The driver must not carry out any repairs or alterations to the stacker without
the necessary training and authorisation to do so. The driver must never disable or
adjust safety mechanisms or switches.
Unauthorised persons must be kept away from the hazardous area. Where there is
anger to personnel, a warning must be sounded with sufficient notice. If unauthorised
personnel are still within the hazardous area the truck shall be brought to a halt
immediately.
Safety Devices and Warning Signs: Safety devices, warning signs and warning
instructions shall be strictly observed.
16
3.2Starting up the truck
3.2.1 Preparing
Before the truck can be commissioned, operated or a load unit lifted, the driver must
ensure that there is nobody within the hazardous area.
Checks and operations to be performed before starting daily work
– Visually inspect the entire truck (in particular wheels and load handler) for obvious
damage.
– Visually inspect the battery attachment and cable connections.
17
3.2.2Travelling, Steering, Braking
Never carry passengers.
Be extremely careful when driving and steering,especially when operating outside the
geometry of the truck.
Emergency Disconnect
–Drawing back the emergency stop switch .
All electrical functions are deactivated.
Emergency Stop
Automatic braking (emergency stop) occurs when the control handle (3) is
released–the tiller automatically reverts to the upper brake zone (B).
If the control handle moves slowly to the braking zone , the cause of this fault must be
rectified. If necessary, replace the recuperating spring.
Travel
Do not reach between the operator pedal and the truck panel when you fold up the
pedal.
We distinguish between two travel modes:
Truck with a folding operator pedal and moving handle.
– Pedestrian mode: Push the side arms in, fold up the operator pedal (1). The truck
can only be operated at the reduced travel speed.
– Rider mode: Push the side arms out, fold down the operator pedal (1). The truck can
be operated at maximum speed.
General:
– Set the handle (3) to the travel zone (F).
– Turn the controller (11) to the required direction (fwd. or rev.).
If the side arms are not folded out,the truck can only be operated at reduced speed.
Do not drive the truck unless the panels are closed and properly locked.When
travelling through swing doors etc. make sure that the doors do not activate the
collision safety button.
Travelling on inclines
Loads must always be carried at that end of the truck facing uphill.
Steering
In narrow bends the driver extends beyond the geometry of the truck.
– Move the control handle (3) to the left or right.
Braking
The brake pattern of the truck depends largely on the ground conditions. The driver
must take this into account when operating the truck.
The truck can brake in three different ways:
18
– by plugging
– by using the operating brake
– with the emergency stop switch (Emergency Disconnect)
By Plugging:
– When travelling, set the controller to the opposite direction.
The truck brakes regeneratively until it starts to move in the opposite direction.
The rate of braking depends on the position of the controller.
Braking with the operating brake:
– Set the control handle (3) to one of the brake zones (B).
The drive motor brakes regenerative ( motor brake ) . Only when this brake fails to
achieve the necessary brake force is the mechanical brake ( magnetic brake) applied.
When the truck is idle the magnetic brake (magnetic brake) applies.
When the tiller is released it reverts to the upper braking zone (B).
Braking with the emergency brake switch:
–Press Emergency brake switch .
The circuit is interrupted , all electrical functions are cut out and the truck
automatically brakes (magnetic brake).
Warning!
Before lifting a load unit the driver must make
sure that it has been correctly stowed and does
not exceed the truck’s capacity.
Do not lift long loads at an angle.
Lift Warning!
Press “Lift” button(14) until the height you need. Don't lift to tiptop, to avoid shorted
life of oil cylinder.
19
Lower
Press “Lower” button(13) until the lowest position.

4.Battery Maintenance & Charging
Fire protection :
– Smoking and naked flames must be avoided when working with batteries.
– Wherever a truck is parked for charging there shall be no inflammable material or
operating fluids capable of creating
sparks within 2 meters around the truck.
– The area must be well ventilated.
– Fire protection equipment must be
provided.
Battery maintenance: The battery cell covers must be kept dry and clean. The
terminals and cable shoes must be clean, secure and have a light coating of
dielectric grease.Batteries with non insulated terminals must be covered with a non slip
insulation mat.
Warning!
1. Do not use dry cloth or fibre cloth to clean the battery,avoiding static to bring the
explosion.
2. Unfixing battery plug.
3. Cleaning with wet cloth.
4. Wearing glasses for protecting eyes rubber overshoes and rubber glove.
21
Battery Disposal:
Batteries may only be disposed of in accordance with national environmental
protection regulations or disposal laws.The manufacturer’s disposal instructions must
be followed.
Before closing the battery cover make sure that the battery lead cannot be damaged.
Nevertheless, should clothing, skin or eyes come in contact with acid the affected
parts should be rinsed with plenty of clean water-where the skin or eyes are affected
call a doctor immediately. Immediately neutralise any spilled battery acid.
The weight and dimensions of the battery have considerable affect on the operational
safety of the truck. Battery equipment may only be replaced with the agreement of the
manufacturer.
22
Charging step
– Check whether the condition is
according with "Safety regulations for
Charging the battery".
– Park the truck securely(See 3.2.4
Parking the truck securely).
– Expose the battery ( see 4.2.1 Exposing
the battery).
– Remove the battery connector (29)
– Connect the battery plug with the
charging lead (30) of the stationary
charger
and turn on the charger.
23
(2)remove the side panel
The truck must be parked on level ground. To
prevent short circuits, batteries with exposed
terminals or connectors must be covered with
a rubber mat. Place the battery connector or
the battery cable in such a way that they will
not get caught on the truck when the battery is
removed.
–Remove the battery panel which on the side,
then pull out the battery. Installation is in the
reverse order of operations.
After installing the battery again, check all
cables and plug connections for visible signs
of damage.
Before starting the truck, the battery panel must be firmly closed. Close the battery
panel carefully and slowly. Do not reach between the battery panel and the chassis.
24
5.Stacker Maintenance
– Only original spare parts have been certified by our quality assurance department.
To ensure safe and reliable operation of the stacker, use only the manufacturer's
spare parts. Used parts, oils and fuels must be disposed of in accordance with the
relevant environmental protection regulations. For oil changes, contact the
manufacturer’s specialist department.
– Upon completion of inspection and servicing, carry out the activities listed in the
“Recommissioning ” section.
5.2Maintenance Safety Regulations
Maintenance personnel
Industrial trucks must only be serviced and maintained by the manufacturer’s trained
personnel.
The manufacturer’s service department has field technicians specially trained for
these tasks. We therefore recommend a maintenance contract with the
manufacturer’s local service center.
Lifting and jacking up
When an industrial truck is to be lifted, the lifting gear must only be secured to the
points specially provided for this purpose.
When jacking up the truck, take appropriate measures to prevent the truck from
slipping or tipping over (e.g. wedges, wooden blocks).
You may only work underneath a raised load handler if it is supported by a sufficiently
strong chain.
Cleaning
Do not use flammable liquids to clean the industrial truck.
Prior to cleaning, all safety measures required to prevent sparking (e.g. through short
circuits) must be taken. For battery-operated trucks, the battery connector must be
removed.
Only weak suction or compressed air and non-conductive antistatic brushes may be
used for cleaning electric or electronic assemblies.
If the truck is to be cleaned with a water jet or a high-pressure cleaner, all electrical
and electronic components must be carefully covered beforehand as moisture can
cause malfunctions.
Do not clean with pressurised water.
After cleaning the truck, carry out the activities detailed in the “ Recommission ”
section.
25
Electrical System
Only suitably trained personnel may operate on the truck’s electrical system.
Before working on the electrical system, take all precautionary measures to avoid –
electric shocks.
For battery-operated trucks, also de-energise the truck by removing the battery
connector.
Welding
To avoid damaging electric or electronic components, remove these from the truck
before performing welding operations.
Settings
When repairing or replacing hydraulic, electric or electronic components or
assemblies, always note the truck-specific settings.
Tyres
The quality of tyres affects the stability and performance of the truck. When replacing
factory fitted tyres only used original manufacturer’s spare parts, as otherwise the
data plate specifications will not be kept.
When changing wheels and tyres, ensure that the truck does not slew (e.g. when
replacing wheels always left and right simultaneously).
Lift chains
Lift chains wear rapidly if not lubricated.
The intervals stated in the service checklist apply to normal duty use. More
demanding conditions (dust, temperature) require more regular lubrication.
The prescribed chain spray must be used in accordance with the instructions.
Applying grease externally will not provide sufficient lubrication.
Hydraulic hoses
The hoses must be replaced every six years. When replacing hydraulic components,
also replace the hoses in the hydraulic system.
5.3Servicing and inspection
Thorough and expert servicing is one of the most important requirements for the safe
operation of the industrial truck. Failure to perform regular servicing can lead to truck
failure and poses a potential hazard to personnel and equipment.
The service intervals stated are based on single shift operation under normal
operating conditions. They must be reduced accordingly if the truck is to be used in
conditions of extreme dust, temperature fluctuations or multiple shifts.
The following maintenance checklist states the tasks and intervals after which they
should be carried out. Maintenance intervals are defined as:
W = Every 50 service hours, at least weekly
A = Every 250 operating hours
B = Every 500 operating hours, or at least annually
C = Every 2000 operating hours, or at least annually
W service intervals are to be performed by the customer.
In the run-in period - after approx. 100 service hours - or after repair work, the owner
must check the wheel nuts/bolts and re-tighten if necessary.

5.3.2 Lubrication Schedule
29
Fuels, coolants and lubricants
Only use clean containers when filling up with consumables. Do not mix consumables
of different grades. The only exception to this is when mixing is expressly stipulated in
the Operating Instructions.
Avoid spillage. Spilled liquids must be removed immediately with suitable bonding
agents and the bonding agent/consumable mixture must be disposed of in
accordance with regulations.
30
Checking the hydraulic oil level
– Prepare the truck for maintenance and repairs ( See 5.3.3 Maintenance Instructi-
ons ).
– Opening the front panel(See 5.3.3 Maintenance Instructions).
– Check hydraulic oil level in hydraulic reservoir .
There is oil level display on the level gauge The Oil level depends on the lift height.
The oil level must be checked when the load forks are lowered.
–If necessary add hydraulic oil of the correct grade ( See 5.3.2 Lubrication Schedule) .
Installation is the reverse order.
Recommissioning
The truck may only be recommissioned after cleaning or repair work, once the
following operations have been performed.
– Test horn.
– Test Emergency brake switch.
– Test brake.
– Lubricate the truck in accordance with the maintenance schedule.
31
5.4Decommissioning the industrial truck
If the industrial truck is to be decommissioned for more than two months , e.g. For
operational reasons,it must be parked in a frost-free and dry location and all
necessary measures must be taken before, during and after decommissioning as
described.
On decommissioning the truck must be jacked up so that all the wheels are clear of
the ground. This is the only way of ensuring that the wheels and wheel bearings are
not damaged.
If the truck is to be out of service for more than 6 months , further measures must be
taken in consultation with the manufacturer’s service department.
5.4.1Prior to decommissioning
– Thoroughly clean the truck.
– Check the brakes.
– Check the hydraulic oil level and replenish as necessary (See 5.3.3 Maintenance
Instructions ).
– Apply a thin layer of oil or grease to any non-painted mechanical components.
–Lubricate the truck in accordance with the maintenance schedule (See 5.3.2
Lubrication Schedule ).
– Charge the battery (See 4.2 Charging the battery).
– Disconnect the battery, clean it and apply grease to the terminals.
In addition, follow the battery manufacturer’s instructions.
– Spay all exposed electrical contacts with a suitable contact spray.
5.4.2During decommissioning
Every 2 months:
– Charge the battery (See 4.2 Charging the battery).
Battery powered trucks:
The battery must be charged at regular intervals to avoid depletion of the battery
through self-discharge. The sulfatisation would destroy the battery.
32
Battery powered trucks:
If there are switching problems in the electrical system, apply contact spray to the
exposed contacts and remove any oxide layers on the contacts of the operating
controls by applying them repeatedly.
Perform several brake tests immediately after re-commissioning the truck.
unusual incidents
Carry out a safety check in accordance with national regulations. We have a special
safety department with trained personnel to carry out such checks. The truck must be
inspected at least annually (refer to national regulations) or after any unusual event by
a qualified inspector. The inspector shall assess the condition of the truck from purely
a safety viewpoint, without regard to operational or economic circumstances. The
inspector shall be sufficiently instructed and experienced to be able to assess the
condition of the truck and the effectiveness of the safety mechanisms based on the
technical regulations and principles governing the inspection of stackers.
A thorough test of the truck must be undertaken with regard to its technical condition
from a safety aspect. The truck must also be examined for damage caused by
possible improper use. A test report shall be provided. The test results must be kept
for at least the next 2 inspections.
The owner is responsible for ensuring that faults are immediately rectified.
A test plate is attached to the truck as proof that it has passed the safety inspection.
This plate indicates the due date for the next inspection.
33
