Clutch pedal [8] (frictional clutch
type)
Press the clutch pedal fully, the
operator can uncouple the engine and
transmission.
When the clutch pedal released, it
allows power to flow through the clutch
from the engine to transmission.
Caution:
Do not run the lift truck with the
clutch in a half-clutch condition as much
as possible.
Inching pedal [9] (Torque converter
type)
As the inching pedal is pressed, the
oil pressure in the hydraulic clutch drops
accordingly (the needle of the oil
pressure gauge swings to the left)
allowing the operator to perform inching
operation. Use this pedal to inch the
truck while operating the hoist system at
a high speed.
When pressed to the full, this
inching pedal serves as a brake pedal
also.
Caution:
Do not use the inching pedal too
much. Long time use or use as rest would
cause high temperature of transmission
oil, or result in slipping of clutch.
Accelerator pedal [11]
Press down the accelerator pedal,
engine rotating speed increase, traveling
speed of truck increased. On the contrary,

Tilt level [14]
The mast can be tilted by operation
of this tilt lever: pulling on this lever
backwards will tilt the mast backwards,
and pushing it forwards will tilt the mast
forwards.
The tilt speed can be controlled by
tilt angle of the lever and accelerator
pedal effort.
Caution
The tilt lock mechanism built in the
hydraulic control valve does not allow
the mast to tilt forwards while the engine
is being shut down even if the tilt level
is pushed forwards.
