Know Your Lift Truck
WARNING
Always make sure the parking brake is fully applied
before leaving the lift truck. If the operator leaves the lift
truck without applying the parking brake, a seat activa-
ted switch will shift the transmission to neutral, and
sound an alarm for 10 seconds. If the lift truck is left on
a grade, without the parking brake fully applied, the lift
truck will free-wheel down the grade, possibly causing
injury or property damage.
WARNING
EXHAUST GASES
Exhaust from internal combustion engines contains car-
bon monoxide and other harmful chemicals. Carbon
monoxide is a colorless, odorless poison and can cause
unconsciousness or death without warning. Long-term
exposure to exhaust or chemicals in the exhaust can
cause cancer, birth defects, and other reproductive
harm. Avoid exposure to engine exhaust.
If engines are operated in confined spaces, maintain
adequate ventilation or vent exhaust to the outside. Do
not exceed applicable air contaminant limits (see 29 CFR
1910.1000 Table Z-1).
Follow the inspection and maintenance schedule and
procedures in this manual. Do not alter exhaust, ignition,
or fuel systems.
WARNING
FIRE HAZARD
The hot engine surfaces and exhaust of internal com-
bustion engine powered lift trucks can present fire haz-
ards when operating in areas containing flammable
gases, vapors, liquids, dusts, fibers, or paper debris.
Engine and exhaust component surface temperatures
can exceed the ignition temperatures of common sol-
vents, fuels, oil, paper, and other organic materials
(wood, wheat, cotton, etc.). Exhaust emitted sparks can
ignite these materials as well. Engine and exhaust sur-
face temperatures increase after engine shutoff, pre-
senting increased fire hazard. Check the engine
compartment frequently in areas containing
