Tilt the mast forward until forks become
horizontal. Elevate forks up to the position of
the pallet or skid.

Make sure forks are positioned properly for
the pallet. Move forward slowly to insert forks
into the pallet as far as possible and then stop
the truck.
Caution
If the forks cannot be fully inserted, use the
following procedure: move forward and insert
the forks 3/4 of the way. Raise the forks 5 to
10 cm and move backward 10 to 20 cm with
the pallet or skid on the forks, then lower the
pallet or skid on the stack. Move forward
again to insert the forks fully.
·
Raise the forks 5 to 10 cm off the stack.
·
Check all around the truck to insure that the
path of travel is unobstructed and back away
slowly.
·
Lower forks to a height of 15 to 20 cm above
the ground. Tilt the mast backward fully and
move to the desired area.
