Storage, Towing or Shipping
Truck Storage
If the forklift is to be stored for a length of time:
• The truck should be stored indoors within a
temperature range of +35° F (2° C) to +115° F (46° C)
and a relative humidity of 90%, preferably less.
• The truck should be raised with the tires at least 2” (51
mm) off the floor and the frame set on large wooden
blocks. Hard polyurethane tires, over long periods of
time can develop flat spots that may not return to
normal when the truck is returned to service,
rendering the tires defective.
• If the truck must be stored outside, it must be covered
securely with a tarp, or other water-resistant material.
Continued exposure to sunlight will cause
deterioration of rubber tires, gaskets and hoses, as
well as vinyl seat coverings, etc.
Towing the Truck
If the truck breaks down and cannot be repaired at that
location, it may be towed by attaching a suitable hook
and chain to the tow pin in the rear of the truck. See
Figure 2-2. Remember with no power to the truck being
towed, steering will be difficult. Carefully and slowly tow
the truck backwards to your service repair area.
An operator must be on the towed truck, wearing a seat
belt.

Be certain there are no loose wires or tools that
could bridge the two battery terminals. If
conductive material connects the two terminals
arc flash, severe burns, or death may occur.
• Make sure the towing equipment is capable of
handling the weight of the truck being towed.
• Never lift a truck using straps, chains or
hoists of any type.
• Never connect lifting equipment to the
operator’s compartment overhead guards.
• Never use the truck to tow materials.
