  • Page 10 SAFETY MANAGEMENT CLEAN OPERATOR'S COMPARTMENT • Keep the operator's compartment clean and tidy. Be sure to clean up all oil or mud. If the operator's hand or foot slips, this may lead to a serious accident. • Do not leave tools or spare parts lying around in the operator's compartment. They may damage or obstruct the control levers or pedals.
  • Page 11 SAFE TRAVEL SAFE TRAVEL WEARING SEAT BELT • Always fit your seat belt correctly when operating. If your seat belt is fitted incorrectly, there is danger of serious personal injury if the lift truck should tip over. • Always check the seat belt mounts and check for any damage to the seat belt.
  • Page 12 SAFE TRAVEL PRECAUTIONS WHEN STARTING UNIT • Depress the brake pedal firmly, then start the unit. • Before starting the unit, always check that the parking brake is applied and that the directional lever is in neutral. • Adjust the operator's seat and the steering wheel before starting the unit.
  • Page 13 SAFE TRAVEL TRAVEL ON SLOPES • Do not turn, or travel across or at an angle on slopes. There is danger that the lift truck will tip. • Before starting to drive up a slope, stop the lift truck and adjust the clearance between the ground surface and the bottom of the forks so that the bottom of the forks or pallet do not contact the ground surface or the tip of the fork does not stick into the ground when traveling.
  • Page 14 SAFE TRAVEL LOADING HIGHWAY TRUCKS OR RAILROAD CARS • Do not travel on the edge of docks. There is danger that the lift truck may fall, which may result in serious injury or death. • Before starting operations, check the load limit for the gangplanks (dock boards), and do not use them if they do not have ample strength to take the weight of the lift truck when loaded.
  • Page 15 SAFE TRAVEL WHEN FRONT VIEW IS POOR • If the view to the front is obstructed by the load, turn to the rear and drive the forklift truck in reverse. • When driving in reverse with a high load, use a signal person to ensure the safety of the load and the safety in the surrounding area.
  • Page 16 SAFE TRAVEL ALWAYS SIT IN OPERATOR'S SEAT Always observe the following: • Never operate the lift truck from outside the operator's compartment. • Always keep your body under the overhead guard. • Do not extend your arms and legs outside the operator's compartment.

  • Page 18 SAFE TRAVEL HEIGHT OR WIDTH LIMITS When going in or out of places with height or width limits: • Ensure that there is ample height and width for the lift truck to pass. • Do not extend your hands or legs outside the operator’s compartment or the area covered by the overhead guard (safe area).
  • Page 19 LOADING OPERATIONS LOADING OPERATIONS NO OVERLOADING • Do not load the lift truck over the capacity set forth in the load capacity chart. If the rear wheels come off the ground because of overloading, the lift truck cannot travel or turn. There is also danger that it may tip.
  • Page 20 LOADING OPERATIONS BE CAREFUL NOT TO GET CAUGHT OR FALL • Never put your hands or feet into the mast structure. There is danger that you will get caught in moving parts and be seriously injured. • Do not use the mast, load backrest or dashboard as a ladder or step. If you slip, there is danger that you will fall.
  • Page 21 LOADING OPERATIONS DO NOT LOAD ABOVE HEIGHT OF LOAD BACKREST • Keep the height of the load within the height of the load backrest. • Do not carry any load that is higher than the load backrest. If the load is higher than the load backrest, there is danger that it will fall back on top of the operator.
  • Page 22 LOADING OPERATIONS USE ONLY FOR INTENDED PURPOSES • Do not use the lift truck for anything other than the intended use (loading operations using the forks). • Do not use the forks to open or close the doors of railroad cars or warehouses.
  • Page 23 LOADING OPERATIONS FIT FORKS SECURELY IN POSITION • Adjust the position (spread) of the forks to match the size of the load. • When adjusting the position (width) of the forks, be careful not to get your hands caught. • After adjusting, check that the forks are held securely in position by the fork stopper.
  • Page 24 LOADING OPERATIONS HANDLING LONG OR WIDE LOADS • Be extremely careful when carrying long or wide loads. Raise the load slowly and be careful not to touch anything in the surrounding area. • Keep the load as low as possible and be sure to maintain the balance. •...

  • Page 27 INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE PRECAUTIONS WHEN CARRYING OUT INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE • Wipe off any oil or grease. Immediately wipe up any oil that has leaked. If the lift truck is dirty, it becomes difficult or impossible to find cracks or other problems. Always clean the lift truck before starting inspection.
  • Page 28 INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE BE CAREFUL NOT TO GET CAUGHT OR FALL • NEVER put your hands or feet into the mast structure. There is danger that you will get caught in moving parts and be seriously injured. • Do not use the mast, load backrest or dashboard as a ladder. If you slip, there is danger that you will fall.
  • Page 29 NEVER raise the truck by the overhead guard. If the truck has to be lifted frequently, it is necessary to install special lifting equipment, so pleas contact your Komatsu Forklift dealer. • Fit wire ropes to the specified lifting points.
  • Page 30 During charging, always open the battery bonnet and lock it. • If the fuse for the battery charger is blown, always replace it with a genuine Komatsu Forklift fuse. • Explosive gas is produced in the battery during charging. Keep flame away from battery.

  • Page 32 STRUCTURE AND STABILITY OF THE LIFT TRUCK STRUCTURE AND STABILITY OF THE LIFT TRUCK To operate the lift truck safely, and to prevent the lift truck from tipping, it is important to understand the structure and stability of the lift truck. STRUCTURE OF LIFT TRUCK A forklift truck consists basically of the lifting mechanism (the forks and mast) at the front and the lift truck itself (with tires) at the rear.
  • Page 33 STRUCTURE AND STABILITY OF THE LIFT TRUCK CENTER OF GRAVITY AND STABILITY The stability of the lift truck is determined by the position of the combined center of gravity resulting from the combination of the centers of gravity of the lift truck and the load. When the lift truck is carrying no load, the center of gravity remains as it is, but when the lift truck is loaded, the combined center of gravity becomes the combination of the centers of gravity of both...
  • Page 34 STRUCTURE AND STABILITY OF THE LIFT TRUCK ALLOWABLE LOAD The allowable load is stamped on the nameplate to show the relationship regarding the position of the load center, the height of the fork and the maximum load. Before loading the forks, check that the load and load center are within the permitted range on the stamped allowable load.
  • Page 35 STRUCTURE AND STABILITY OF THE LIFT TRUCK SPEED AND ACCELERATION If a stationary object is not subjected to external force, it will remain stationary. In the same way, if a moving object is not subjected to external force, it will continue to move at the same speed. This is called inertia. Because of inertia, a force is applied towards the rear when the lift truck starts to move, and is applied towards the front when the lift truck stops.
