applied for transporting mass of good in
short time and climbing big gradient slop
but it costs more energyso the mode will not be
used in normal state except emergency.

Mode P is power mode. All kinds of

index are lower than that of super mode. It is
applied for the case of long distance
transporting and needing higher power or
speed.
Mode E is economical mode. All the
parameters are optimized. Working in this
mode can save power so it is applied for a
long time work after charging, and it is
suggested to work in this mode in normal
work-time.
Mode SPE is safe mode. Thus the max
vehicle speed is limited to about 7km/h. It is
applied for working in busy storage and
cabined room.

ground.
The considered climatic conditions
when the forklift
designs
are:
Temperature - 20-50; the wind
speed does not surpass 5m/s; the air
relative humidity is not bigger than 90%
(temperature 20). The forklift is not
suitable in the flammable explosive
working conditions.

neutral.

Before staring, make sure no one is

under, on and close to the truck.
Dont step the accelerate pedal or
control the lifting lever or tilting lever
before turning on power.
10. Operate the controls smoothly.
Avoid sudden stops or turns.
It is dangerous to make a sharp
brake. Otherwise the truck has the
possibility of overturn.
11. Pay attention to the route of the
truck; be sure to make a wide sight.
12. Never allow other person(s) to
ride on the forks, pallets or on the truck.
13. Taking account of the shape and
material of loads to be handled, use a
proper attachment and tools.

Avoid hoisting the load, with wire

rope hung on the forks or attachment,
since the wire rope may slide off. If
needed, a qualified personnel for slinging
operation should perform, making use of
a hook or crane arm attachment.

Take care not to protrude the forks

out of the load. The protruded fork tips
may damage or turn over the adjacent
load.
14. Know the rated capacity of your
lift truck and its attachment, if any, and
never exceed it.

Do not use a man as an additional

23. Dont stack loads on forks in
such a way that the top of loads exceeds
the load backrest height. If unavoidable,
make sure the load is fastened. When
handling bulky loads that restrict your
vision operate the truck in reverse or
have a guide. When lead by a guide,
make sure you understand hand, flag,
whistle or other signals. When handling
long loads such as pipe, lumber etc or in
the case of the Large-sized model, or
operate with long attachment, be
extremely careful of load end swing at
corners or in narrow aisles. Be alert for
others.
24. Use minimum forward and
14

reverse tilt when stacking and

un-stacking loads. Never tilt forward
unless load is over stack or at low lift
height.
When stacking loads on a high
place, once make the mast vertical at a
height of 15 to 20 cm above the ground
and then lift the load farther. Never
attempt to tilt the mast beyond vertical
when the load is raised high.

To un-stack loads from a high place,

insert forks into the pallet and drive
backwards, then lower the load. Tilt the
mast backwards after lowering. Never
attempt to tilt the mast with the load
raised high.
25. It is dangerous to travel with
forks higher than appropriate position
regardless of whether loaded or not.
Keep the good traveling posture. (When
traveling, the forks should be 15 to 30 cm
above the ground or floor and the mast
tilted backward)

Do not operate the side shift

mechanism, if equipped, when the forks
are raised and loaded, since this will
cause the truck to be unbalanced.
26. Watch for branches, cables,
doorways, or overhangs. Pay caution
when working in congested areas.

Slow down and sound horn at cross

aisles and other locations where vision is
restricted.

When make a turn, be sure the

speed of the truck is lower than the 1/3
max. of allowable speed.

27. Affirm keeping some distance

from roadside and flat roof.

28. Before driving over a dock-board

or bridge-plate, be sure that it is properly
secured and strong enough to sustain the
weigh.
29. When operating loaded truck,
have the rear end of your machine
pointed downhill.

When operating unloaded truck,

have the rear end of your machine
pointed upgrade.
Do not make a turn on the grade, in
order to avoid overturn.

30.the goods is liable to drop turning or

passing rough road when it departures the
center. And the forklift may turn over more
probably.

31. Never lift loads with the truck

inclined. Avoid loading work on a grade.
32. Never permit anyone to stand or
walk under upraised forks or other
attachments if machine is so equipped. If
unavoidable, use a safety stand or block
to prevent a possibility of fork
attachments falling down or moving
unexpectedly.
33. Inspect the surface over which
you will run. Look for holes, drop-offs,
obstacles, and look for rough spots. Look
for anything that might cause you to lose
control, bog down or upset.

Clear away trash and debris. Pick up

anything that might puncture a tire or let
the load lose balance.

Slow down for wet and slippery

roads. Stay away from the edge of the

5.The structure and stability of truckPrevent the forklift to turn

over!
It is very important for operator to know the trucks structure and relationship between
load and stability.
Caution the structure of the truck
The basic structure of the truck is mast (include mast and
forks) and body (include tire).
The lift truck keeps the balance of weight between
the truck body and the load on the forks with the center
of the front wheels as a fulcrum when the rated
capacity load is placed in position.
Due care should be paid to the gravity center of
loads and forklift to maintain the stability of the truck.

Caution

Load center

There is difference in gravity because of the loads

shape, such as box, board and large roller. It is very
important to distinguish the difference of the gravity
center of loads for evaluating the trucks stability.

Warning!

If the truck will turn over, do not attempt to get out of the truck because the speed of
overturn is much faster than your speed. You should hold the steering wheel handle, stretch
your feet, and this practice will let you in the seats. Operator fastens the safety belt please.

17

Caution Gravity center and stability

The combined gravity center that is

composed of the forklift center and the load
gravity center determine the stability of lift
trucks.
When unloaded, the barycenter does not
change; when loaded, the barycenter is
determined by the truck and the loads center.
The barycenter is also determined by the
tilting and lifting of the mast.
The combined center is determined by these
factors:
Loads size, weight and shape
The lifting height
The tilting angle
The acceleration
The radius of turning
The road and grades angle
The attachments

Caution! The stability zone of the barycenter

In order to make the truck stable, the combined
center must be in the triangle which is made up of
two points that the two front wheels attach ground
and the midpoint of the back axle.
If the combined center is in the front driving
axle, the two front wheels become two fulcrums,
the truck will overturn. If the combined center
departures the triangle, the trucks shall overturn in
the corresponding direction.

Caution

The max. loadweight and load center distance

The load center distance is defined that: the

distance between the load center and the fork
carriage or the front of the fork carriage. The max.
load means the maximum load the truck can charge
at the normal load center distance. The relation
between the max. load and load center distance
shows on the capacity chart. You should reduce the
weight of load if the load center distance inclines to
the fork carriage.
18

Caution

Capacity chart

The chart given shows the relation between the

load center and the weight of loads.
Before loading, make sure that the load and the
load center distance in the range of capacity chart.
If the loads shape is complex, put the most
weightily part on the middle of the forks, and
close to the fork carriage.

Caution

Velocity and acceleration

One object will keep quiescence until force works on it. Also, a moving object will
keep moving until force works on it .This is just inertia.
According to inertia, when truck starts moving, one force works backwards, and when
truck stops moving, one force works forwards. So, its dangerous to brake suddenly,
because it causes one large force works forwards, and its easy to cause truck overturn or
load slide off.
When the forklift makes a turn, will exert a centrifugal force outward from the curve
center. This strength pushes forklift outwards and causes it to turn over. About stability
region is very small, so decelerate when turning. If the cargo transported at the high
position, its easier to turn over.

19

6.Running-in of the new truck

We recommended operating the machine under light load conditions for the first stage
of operation to get the most from it. Especially the requirements given below should be
observed while the machine is in a stage of 100 hours of operation.
1. Must prevent the new battery from over discharging when early used. Usually should
recharge when discharging down to 20%.
2. Perform specified preventive maintenance services carefully and completely.
3. Avoid sudden stop, starts or turns.
4. Oil changes and lubrication are recommended to do earlier than specified.
5. Limited load is 7080% of the rated load.

Forbid to use a flame.

2. Inspect tire
Turn the tire valve cap counter
clock-wise and move it. Using a tire pressure
gauge, measure the inflation pressure, and
adjusting it to the specified pressure, if
needed. After making sure there is no air
leakage from the tire valve, reinstall the cap.
Check that each tire does not get damaged at
the tread surface or side face. Make sure the
wheel felloe is not bended.

Warning!
All bolts and nuts should be screw tight
to the stipulation torque after the tire and the
wheel felloe was assembled, then charge is
allowed. Types have expansion energy after
changing, so the tire pressure does not
surpass the rating.
Please put the tire in a protection frame
or tie it with a iron chain when charging to
prevent accident happening.

c. Adjusting the specific density and

height for the electrolyte

If the specific gravity is smaller, it will

be adjusted as follow: then take out
some electrode from the battery, pour
the compounded sulfuric acid that its
specific gravity is 1.400g/cm3.

If the specific gravity is larger, it will be

adjusted as follow: then take out some
electrode from the battery, pour some
distilled water, but you must keep the
electrode height accord with demand
d. After adjusting, you should keep
charging on 1 hour; make the density
of electrode even upper and under. At
this time we have finished the first
charging.
e. Close the pouring plug and clean the
battery surface acid, then you can use
it.
Caution
During the charging, the temperature
of electrolyte should not be exceeded
45 Otherwise you should low the
temperature. If the temperature do not
lowing, you should stop recharging
till the temperature drop down.

Daily charging

The battery that has been made the

first charging and used regular, then
charged again, is named daily charging.

Its way is almost same as the first

charging.

The recharging value is 1.2 times

than the last electric discharging. But the
electric-change for new batterys fore
five times should be 1.5 times than the
last electric discharging.

During any charge, the temperature

of electrode should not be exceeded
450C otherwise it should be taken
measures such as reducing artificially
charging current or lowing the
temperature. If the temperature doesnt
drop, you should stop charging, till the
temperature dropping down.

occur disequilibrium among the voltage,

the density and the capacity.

Compared to most of the batteries ,

often finds that single batterys
proportion of voltage and electrolyte
rises slowly during the course of charge
and during the course of discharge, its
batterys proportion of voltage and
electrolyte declines faster than most of
other batteries.

Make equilibrium charge in the

following case
a. discharge voltage often drop down
ending voltage
b. discharge current is often larger
c. Not charge in time after discharge
d. The electrolyte is mixed with
impurity with a little harm.
e. It often be charged deficient or has
not been used for a long time
f. After taking out the battery group
for checking or cleaning settling.

Adopt intelligent charging for the

daily charging. The first five charging
should using Equilibrium Charge
according to the intelligent charger
operate manual.

The method of Equilibrium Charge

Firstly, charge the battery normally,
and then rest for 1 hour after the
end of charge.
Charge it again with the current
belongs to the second normally
charge until the electrolyte gives
off a large number of bubbles, then
stop charging for 1 hour.

Repeat it several times as

mentioned above until the voltage and
the density keep invariable and the
battery gives off a large number of
bubbles immediately when charge
again.

Watering Pipe

Our company offers watering pipes of different types and the clients can choose what
they need according to the specification of the battery.
The watering pipe must be perfectly sealed with T-piece and L-piece.

Notes during the filling process:

1In order to ensure a safe watering process, we hereby recommend you to use flow
indicator (with filter), the flow indicator with filter can not only timely indicate whether it
finishes watering, but also avoid unclean impurities entering the battery to result interruption.
2The watering pressure should be within the range of 0.2-0.6, no less than 200mbar
3Youd better conduct watering within the specified periods, because frequent filling
will lead to overflowing for too much water, which will do great damage to the storage
battery.
NoteFilling after finishing charging is the best ideal state, besides, do not filling before
charging.

Cleaning
During the period of development and long-term practical application, the leak tightness
of automatic watering system has been completely approved.
When you use it, you must pay much attention to keep the automatic watering system
clean. No filth remaining on the surface.
The users should regularly clean the watering plug for the plug is a kind of plastic good.
Clean the surface directly with tap water and no need to use other detergent.

Characteristics of the Automatic Watering System

No need to water by hand, labor saving.

No malfunction factor leading to damage the battery.
Easy & safe operation.
Ensure a precise electrolyte level in every battery cell.
Prevent leakage when watering.
Effectively avoid the acid liquid to erode the storage battery and the electrolytic bath.
Extend the service life of the battery.
Environment protection.
Save energy.

Function Introduction
Function of the automatic watering system: the floater of the automatic watering plug can
reach correct water level, when the level rises in the cell, the pressure closes the valves and
prevents further water entering the cell. When the system finishes watering, the flow indicator
will stop running and you can see the water-level indicator clearly through the top of the
watering system.
Besides, the material of floater can avoid damage and ineffectiveness.
As for the structure of automatic watering system, there is a terraced step, when the
electrolyte gas rises to the watering plug, the terraced part can prevent the leakage of the
electrolyte gas as well as quickly cool the electrolyte gas to make them go back to the storage
battery in time.

pothook fork and install size of carriage,such as clamp, rotator, paper roll clamp, carrying ram,
side-shifter ect.
1Attachment use.
1 Know well the content of nameplate on attachment, read the instruction manual before
Usage.(Especially the manual from attachment company)Before operate the attachment, the people should
be trained and obtain the qualification.
(2) It should be understand the basic capability and operate methods of attachment. Especially the
admit load, lift height, size of cargo and adapt range of attachment.
3Operate the multi-functional attachment, such as with side-shifter, clamp or rotator, it is not
allowed that two action at one time. Operate one functional then do another one.
4Prohibit the cargo at a high position when truck move with attachment. If the size of cargo is too
big, prohibit the truck move on. Transport the cargeo, make sure that the distance of bottom of cargo and
ground is less than 300mm and mast incline back.
5The weight of cargo couldnt exceed the limited value of combination carrying capacity of
forklift and attachment. It is not allowed that partial load at high position. It is a short time work for
attachment with side-shifter. Partial load is around 100mm (Above 5 ton (including 5 ton),the side-shifter
movable within 300mm.
6In the range of the projection forth 2m of the lower of attachment and cargo, prohibit stand to
avoid the suddenness except the driver position under overhead.
7It is not allowed that an emergency brake in moving. Run slowly with load.
8Prohibit outside force when attachment working.
9It couldnt be use at malfeasance situation and overstep normal work range
10When the attachment failure, prohibit use without check.

Check and maintenance:

1Check the clearance of carriage beam and below catch of attachment if accord the attachment
manual.
2Check the rise catch is right on the flute of fork carriage.
3Use the auto currency lithic-grease per 500 hours to bearing surface.
4If the tighten firmware become flexible.
5Check the tie-in of hydraulic pressure loop, if tube attaint. Prohibit use after repair.
6Check the drive of attachment timing or turn the component if fray or block, change betimes.
7Check each element if in normal under load attachment is work in gear. If not, check the
hydraulic pressure loop, find out the broken part, change air poof or whole loop part.

2Attachment assembly
Caution
1Untempered technology licence of our company, any refit at safety and capability to attachment
is strict prohibit.
2Fact rating load capacity should be the least of rating load capacity, the load capacity of
attachment, colligate load capacity of truck. Generally speaking, the colligate load capacity of
truck is the least. Attachment load capacity just a count value of attachment pressure.
3Assembly go to in reason, credibility, safety to avoid the attachment glide around carriage in
using.
4After hang attachment, embed the rise catch block to the gap of top beam, let the offset of
centre line of attachment and carriage is less than 50mm.Otherwise,it will be affect the landscape
orientation stability of forklift.
5To these attachment with rotating function, such as paper roll clamp, bale clamp, muti-purpose
clamp, drum clamp, it needs to weld chock block in the joint of carriage beam and attachment to
prevent move from side to side in the operation.
6Assembly the attachment of below catch orientation, it need to adjust the clearance between
below catch and beam of carriage.
