2.2 Brief Introduction about Operation
1) Start
Before engine is started, it is required to place the gear-shift lever at the zero position (At this
point the neutral position indicator light turns on.), and otherwise, the engine won’t be started,
as this because the safety start protective function is designed for the forklift truck in the start
protective circuit.
Turn the start switch in the counterclockwise direction to H gear (preheating position), the
resistance wire of preheating indicator changes slowly, and the inlet air of engine is heated at
this point, to benefit start. Turn the start switch in clockwise direction to 1
st
gear, and the
power supply for instrument system is connected. (The truck types except Isuzu trucks will
preheat automatically at the switched-on gear, and the preheating indicator light on the
instrument turns on during preheating.). The schematic diagram for positions of start switch is
indicated as in Fig 2-2.
Fig 2-2 Schematic Drawing for Gear Positions of Start Switch
Turn the start switch in clockwise direction to the 2
nd
gear (Start Gear), to start the engine.
After engine is started, push the gear-shift lever forward, namely at the forward gear, and
accelerate the throttle, the forklift truck will run at a quick speed or work at a quick speed, and
if the gear-shift lever is pulled backwards, namely at the backward gear, the reversing light
will turn on and the reversing buzzer sounds at this point.
2) Light Switch: Turn to the 1
st
gear, the front and rear width lights turn on. Turn to the 2
nd
gear, the front headlight turns on, and at this point, the width light is still on.
3) Turn Signal: Pull the switch for turn signal light backwards, the turn signal lights of front
combination light and rear combination light on the left side of forklift truck turn on. Push the
switch for turn signal light forwards, the turn signal lights of front combination light and rear
combination light on the right side of forklift truck turn on.
4) Brake Signal: When brake is required for forklift truck, push down the brake pedal with
foot, and brake signal light (red) of rear combination light turns on.
5) Reversing Signal: When brake is required for forklift truck, pull the gear-shift lever
backwards, the transmission will be placed at reversing gear at this point. The reversing light
(white) of rear combination light turns on, and the reversing buzzer sounds.
