Operator's Manual
Rev. BXXMP.01 January 2020
Training:
The operator must have carefully read and studied this manual,
the attached charts and diagrams and the warning and hazard
stickers; he or she must be specialized and competent in all
aspects regarding operation and use of the forklift. In many
countries training and licensing must conform and local
authority requirements.
RESIDUAL RISKS
Although BOMAQ INDUSTRIES S.L.U. has made every possible
effort to ensure this forklift's safety by way of its design and
manufacture, it considers that residual risks may occur as a
result of the operator's actions during operation.
Some examples are given below:
-Risks due to working or driving too fast for the loading
conditions or the area of operation.
-Risks due to using incorrect methods for checking or replacing a
hydraulic valve (residual pressure not discharged – uncontrolled
movements).
-Risks due to using incorrect methods for disassembling parts,
such as cylinders without having secured moving parts correctly
(risk of the moving part accidentally falling).
-Risks due to the forklift accidentally overturning without the
operator using the seat belt.
NOISE EMISSIONS AND VIBRATIONS
All
BOMAQ
forklifts have a guaranteed sound power level
according to Directive 2000/14/EC of the European Parliament
and of the Council on the approximation of the laws of the
Member States relating to the noise emission in the
environment by equipment for use outdoors.
In accordance with the provisions of EN 12053 and EN-ISO 4871,
the emission sound pressure level at the operator's position, for
a complete operational cycle, is below 80 dB.
Noise measurements have been taken under the
following operating conditions: idling, lifting and
movement.
The vibration level to which the operator's body is exposed has
been measured using representative and technically comparable
forklifts as indicated in EN 14253:2004, Royal Decree 1311/2005
and Royal Decree 1311/2005 Technical Guidelines in order to
minimize risks for the operator.
These measurements have been taken by an authorized control
body with the forklift in motion and values not exceeding 0.74
have been obtained.
Any arbitrary modification to the forklift causes the sound
power values to vary.
DESCRIPTION AND SAFETY DEVICES
All
BOMAQ
forklifts have all of the means necessary to
guarantee their safe use.
In designing these forklifts, all possible risks have been taken
into account. As such, covers and guards have been fitted to
protect the operator from any hazards that may be encountered
during operation of the forklift, such as becoming trapped in the
engines and moving parts of the transmission, electrical system,
etc.
If the safety covers and guards are removed (which is only
authorized during maintenance), they should be refitted
as soon as the repair is completed.
The forklift has an emergency stop button located next to the
hydraulic controls and the corresponding risk indicator
diagrams.
Emergency stop:
the emergency stop is located on the right-
hand side of the operator, next to the hydraulic control joysticks.
It automatically brings the engine to a halt in the event of an
emergency or problem. On those vehicles fitted with a negative
brake, this will come on when the emergency stop button is
pushed.
It is important to remember to release the emergency
stop button after trying to start the engine again,
otherwise you can run out the battery.
