Stopping
Stop the truck as gradually as possible. Unnecessary rapid stopping could be
hazardous. Load could become unstable.
To stop the truck’s movement (forward or reverse), raise the control handle to
the up position or push the control handle all the way down. In both positions,
the brake will apply. To release the brake, just move the control handle to the
operating position.
NOTE: The steering arm gas spring automatically raises the steering arm to the
upright position when the steering arm is released.
Parking
When parking the truck, do not obstruct traffic lanes or aisles.
1. Park the truck in its designated parking area.
2. Raise the steering arm until vertical to apply the parking brake.
3. Fully lower forks.
4. Remove the key from the keyhole.
5. On the EPJ-25 push the red disconnect plunger to remove all power from
the truck circuits.
If the control handle does not raise immediately to the vertical position
when released, the truck should be placed “OUT OF SERVICE” until it can
be inspected by a qualified service technician.
