2.4.1 Sideshift
Purpose of use:
The lifting mast can be equipped with a sideshift to move the load from side to side. The tractor must be
equipped with an extra double action hydraulic installation or operation must be done via an extra valve
block. See also chapter 2.4.3.
Commissioning:
Tilt the fork lift mast and place the lift with the moving frame onto a level and firm surface in such a way
that the lower beam is within easy reach. Use suitable lifting equipment (minimum lifting capacity 500kg).
Loosen the cylinder bolt(s) and provide sufficient support for the cylinder. Loosen the bolts and remove the
lower beam. Fasten the ground plate for the sideshift (no. 40) with the bolts. Take care that the sideshift
cylinder ends up at the tractor side of the fork lift mast. Fasten the liftening cylinder(s) again with the
cylinder bolts and tighten them securely.
Place the lifting mast back on the tractor. Connect the hydraulic hoses. It is imperative here that the
shortcuts are clean so that no dirt enters the hydraulic system of the machine.
Manual:
Use the sideshift to keep the load as much as possible in the centre of the tractor. Take care that the
hydraulic hoses cannot become entangled. Take care that the operating handles for shifting sidewards
cannot become mutually entangled with other operating handles in order to prevent unintentional
operating.
