INSTRUCTIONS TO THE COMPANY MANAGER
THE SITE
Proper management of lift truck's area of travel will reduce the risk of accidents:
• ground not unnecessarily uneven or obstructed,
• no excessive slopes,
• pedestrian traffic controlled, etc.

THE OPERATOR
- Only qualified, authorised personnel can use the lift truck. This authorisation is given in writing by the competent manager
in the establishment for the use of lift trucks and must be carried permanently by the operator.
 IMPORTANT 
Experience has shown that there are a number of inappropriate ways in which the lift truck might be used. Such foreseeable misuse, of which the main examples are listed
below, are strictly forbidden.
- The foreseeable abnormal behaviour resulting from ordinary negligence, but which does not result from any wish to put the machinery to any improper use.
- The reflex reactions of a person in the event of a malfunction, incident, fault, etc. during operation of the lift truck.
- Behaviour resulting from application of the "principle of least effort" when performing a task.
- For certain machines, the foreseeable behaviour of such persons as: apprentices, teenagers, handicapped persons, trainees tempted to drive a lift truck, operators
tempted to operate a truck for the purposes of a bet, a competition or for their own personal experience.
The person in charge of the equipment must take these criteria into account when assessing the suitability of a person to drive.

THE LIFT TRUCK


A - SUITABILITY OF THE LIFT TRUCK FOR THE JOB
- MANITOU has ensured that this lift truck is suitable for use under the standard operating conditions defined in this
operator's manual, with a STATIC TEST COEFFICIENT 1.25 and a DYNAMIC TEST COEFFICIENT OF 1, as specified in
harmonised standard EN 1459 for mast trucks.
- Before commissioning, the company manager must make sure that the lift truck is appropriate for the work to be done,
and perform certain tests (in accordance with current legislation).
B - ADAPTATION OF THE LIFT TRUCK TO STANDARD ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Our lift trucks are designed to be used within a temperature range of -18 °C to +43 °C.
- In addition to standard equipment mounted on your lift truck, many options are available, such as: road lighting, brake
lights, rotating beacon light, reversing lights, reversing sound alarm, front working light, rear working light, boom head
working light, etc. (according to the lift truck model).
- The operator must take into account the operating conditions to specify the lift truck's signalling and lighting equipment.
Contact your dealer.
- Take into account the weather and atmospheric conditions of the site in use.
• Protection against frost ( 3 - MAINTENANCE: LUBRICANTS AND FUEL).
• Adaptation of lubricants (ask your dealer for information).
• Engine filtration ( 3 - MAINTENANCE: FILTER CARTRIDGES AND BELTS).
 IMPORTANT 
For use in average weather conditions, i.e. between -15°C and +35°C, the lubricants are topped up in the factory.
For operation under more severe climatic conditions, before starting up, it is necessary to drain all the circuits, then ensure correct levels of lubricants using lubricants
properly suited to the relevant ambient temperatures.
The same applies to the cooling liquid.
- Preventing fire risks associated with use in dusty and flammable conditions (e.g. straw, flour, sawdust, organic waste, etc.).
- A lift truck operating in an area without fire extinguishing equipment must be equipped with an individual extinguisher.
There are solutions, consult your dealer.
 IMPORTANT 
Your lift truck is designed for outdoor use under normal atmospheric conditions and indoor use in suitably aerated and ventilated premises.
It is prohibited to use the lift truck in areas where there is a risk of fire or which are potentially explosive (e.g. Refineries, fuel or gas depots, stores of flammable products,
etc.).
For use in these areas, specific equipment is available (ask your dealer for information).
- Our lift trucks comply with Directive 2004/108/EC concerning electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), and with the
corresponding harmonised standard EN 12895. Their correct operation is no longer guaranteed if they are used within
areas in which the electromagnetic fields exceed the limit specified by this standard (10 V/m).
647143 (21/01/2019)
MT-X 1440/1840 E3

1-6
- Directive 2002/44/EC requires company managers to not expose their employees to excessive vibration doses. There is
no recognised code of measurement for comparing the machines of different manufacturers. The actual doses received
cannot therefore be measured under actual operating conditions at the user's premises.
- The following are some tips for minimizing these vibration doses:
• Select the most suitable lift truck and attachment for the intended use.
• Adapt the seat adjustment to the operator's weight (according to lift truck model) and maintain it in good condition, as well
as the cab suspensions. Inflate the tyres in accordance with recommendations.
• The seat is an essential way of reducing the vibrations transmitted to the operator. In the event of seat replacement,
please contact MANITOU.
• Ensure that the operators adapt their operating speed to suit the conditions on site.
• As far as possible, arrange the site in such a way as to provide a flat running surface and remove obstacles and harmful
potholes.
C - MODIFICATION OF THE LIFT TRUCK
- For your safety and that of others, you must not change the structure and settings of the various components used in your
lift truck (hydraulic pressure, calibrating limiters, engine speed, addition of extra equipment, addition of counterweight,
unapproved attachments, alarm systems, etc.) yourself. In this event, the manufacturer cannot be held responsible.
D - FRENCH ROAD TRAFFIC RULES
(or see current legislation in other countries)
- Only one EC declaration of conformity is issued. It must be kept in a safe place.
- The road traffic rules of lift trucks are subject to the provisions of the highway code, according to the following categories:
• Construction-type trucks (MT range): public works vehicle not predominantly for use on roads (point 6.9 of Article R311-1 of the French Highway Code). The truck must
have a 25 disc displayed on the rear of the vehicle and an operating licence plate.
• Agricultural-type trucks (MLT range) that are non-EC type approved tractors: (point 6.2 of Article R311/1 of the French Highway Code). The truck must be fitted with
an operating licence plate.
• Agricultural-type trucks (MLT range) that are EC type approved tractors: agricultural tractor type T1a (point 5.1.1 of Article R311/1 of the French Highway Code). The
truck must be registered.
SPECIAL INSTRUCTION APPLYING TO “EC TRACTOR” TYPE-APPROVED LIFT TRUCKS
- All EC tractor type-approved lift trucks are supplied with an "EC tractor" certificate complying with directive 2003/37/EC, to be retained by the owner, and a page of
administrative details together with a CNIT number (national type approval code) for registration at the prefecture.
- The lift truck owner is responsible for carrying out the necessary procedures for obtaining the vehicle registration document within the time limit defined by the regulations.
- The operator must hold a category B driver's licence, unless granted an exemption.
- The lift truck must be driven on the public highway in accordance with the instructions given in the manual supplied with the lift truck (Gross weight, Gross combination
weight, towing load, axle loads, maximum speeds, etc. according to type/version). The operator must be in possession of the lift truck’s registration document.
 IMPORTANT 
When towing a trailer or agricultural equipment, the travelling speed of the lift truck is limited to 25 km/h.
In this case, a "25" disc must be affixed to the rear of the convoy.
E - LIFT TRUCK CAB PROTECTION
- All lift trucks comply with the requirements of ISO 3471 (wheel loader code) regarding cab rollover protection (ROPS) and
ISO 3449 (Level II) regarding the protection of the cab against falling objects (FOPS).
- "EC TRACTOR" type-approved lift trucks comply, in addition, with Directive 79/622/EC (OECD Code 4) regarding cab
rollover protection (ROPS).
 IMPORTANT 
Structural damage or overturning, a modification, changes or a poorly executed repair can reduce the protective efficiency of the cab, cancelling its compliance.
Do not perform welding or drilling on the cab structure.
Consult your dealer to determine the limits of this structure without cancelling its compliance.

INSTRUCTIONS
- The operator's manual must always be in good condition and kept in the place provided on the lift truck and in the
language used by the operator.
- The operator's manual and any plates or stickers which are no longer legible or are damaged, must be replaced immediately.

MAINTENANCE
- Maintenance or repairs other than those detailed in Part: 3 - MAINTENANCE must be carried out by qualified personnel
(consult your dealer) and in the necessary safety conditions to preserve the health of the operator and any third party.
 IMPORTANT 
Your lift truck must be inspected periodically to ensure that it remains in compliance.
The frequency of this inspection is defined by current legislation in the country in which the lift truck is used.
- Example for France “The manager in charge of the establishment using a lift truck must open and maintain a maintenance
log for each machine (order of 2 March 2004) and undergo a general periodic inspection every 6 months (order of 1
March 2004)”.

- The lift truck's four tyres must be the same brand and the same usage category (normal, snow or special), have the same
structure (radial or diagonal) and have the same degree of tread wear.
- In the event of tyre replacement, use tyres authorised by MANITOU that are the same type and dimensions. Using different
tyres voids the lift truck's type approval and you may be liable.
- If you are replacing just one of the lift truck's tyres (e.g. because it is damaged), we recommend choosing a tyre with the
same degree of wear as the remaining tyres so as not the damage the transmission's kinematic chain.
 IMPORTANT 
Do not use the lift truck if the tyres are incorrectly inflated, damaged or excessively worn, because this could put your own safety or that of others at risk, or cause damage
to the lift truck itself.
The fitting of foam inflated tyres is prohibited and is not guaranteed by the manufacturer, excepting prior authorisation.

647143 (21/01/2019)
MT-X 1440/1840 E3

1 - 12
- Take into account the lift truck’s dimensions and its load before trying to negotiate a narrow or low passageway.
- Never move onto a loading platform without having first checked:
• That it is suitably positioned and made fast.
• That the unit to which it is connected (wagon, lorry, etc.) will not shift.
• That this platform is prescribed for the total weight of the lift truck to be loaded.
• That this platform is prescribed for the size of the lift truck.
- Never move onto a foot bridge, floor or freight lift, without being certain that they are prescribed for the weight and size
of the lift truck to be loaded and without having checked that they are in sound working order.
- Be careful in the area of loading bays, trenches, scaffolding, soft ground and manholes.
- Make sure the ground is stable and firm under the wheels and/or stabilizers before lifting or removing the load. If necessary,
add sufficient wedging under the stabilizers.
- Make sure that the scaffolding, loading platform, pilings or ground is capable of bearing the load.
- Never stack loads on uneven ground, they may tip over.
 IMPORTANT 
If the load or the attachment must remain above a structure for a prolonged period of time, there is the risk that it will bear on the structure as the boom descends due to
cooling of the oil in the cylinders.
To eliminate this risk:
- Regularly check the distance between the load or the attachment and the structure and readjust this if necessary.
- If possible use the lift truck at an oil temperature as close as possible to ambient temperature.
- When working near aerial lines, ensure that the safety distance is sufficient between the working area of the lift truck
and the aerial line.
 IMPORTANT 
You must consult your local electrical agency.
You could be electrocuted or seriously injured if you operate or park the lift truck too close to power cables.
In the event of high winds, do not carry out handling work that jeopardises the stability of the lift truck and its load, particularly if the load catches the wind badly.
- Prevent fire risks associated with use in dusty and flammable conditions (e.g. straw, flour, sawdust, organic waste, etc.).
D - VISIBILITY
- The safety of people within the lift truck's working area, as well as that of the lift truck itself and the operator are depend
on good operator visibility of the lift truck's immediate vicinity in all situations and at all times.
- This lift truck has been designed to allow good operator visibility (direct or indirect by means of rear-view mirrors) of the
immediate vicinity of the lift truck during running operations, unladen and boom in the transport position.
- Special precautions must be taken if the size of the load restricts visibility towards the front:
• moving in reverse,
• site layout,
• assisted by a person directing the manoeuvre (while standing outside the truck's area of travel), making sure to keep
this person clearly in view at all times,
• in any case, avoid reversing over long distances.
- Certain special accessories may require the truck to travel with the boom in the raised position. In such cases, visibility
on the right hand side is restricted, and special precautions must be taken:
• site layout,
• assisted by a person directing the manoeuvre (while standing outside the truck's area of travel).
• replacement of a suspended load by a load on a pallet.
- If visibility of your road is inadequate, ask someone to assist by directing the manoeuvre (while standing outside the
truck's area of travel), making sure to keep this person clearly in view at all times.
- Keep all components affecting visibility in a clean, properly adjusted state and in good working order (e.g. windscreens,
windows, windscreen wipers, windscreen washers, driving and work lights, rear-view mirrors).

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING THE RADIO-CONTROL
For lift trucks with RC radio control
HOW TO USE THE RADIO-CONTROL
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
- This radio-control consists of electronic and mechanical safety elements. It cannot receive commands from another
transmitter because the internal encoding is unique to each radio-control.
 IMPORTANT 
If it is used improperly or incorrectly, there is a risk of danger to:
- The physical and mental health of the user or others.
- The lift truck and other neighbouring items.
All those working with this radio-control:
- Must be qualified in line with current regulations and trained accordingly.
- Must follow this instruction manual as closely as possible.
- The system is used to control the lift truck remotely via radio waves. Commands are also transmitted if the lift truck is
out of sight (behind an obstacle or a building for example), this is why:
• After stopping the truck and removing the key switch (only possible when it is stationary), always place the transmitter
in a safe, dry place.
• Before performing any installation, servicing or repair work, always switch off power sources (in particular, electric
welding devices and electric head units on hydraulic distributors must be disconnected at each section).
• Never remove or alter the safety devices (such as the hand-guard frame, key, emergency stop button, etc.).
 IMPORTANT 
Never drive the lift truck if it is not continuously and perfectly within view of the operator!
- Before leaving the transmitter, the operator must make sure that it cannot be used by an unauthorized third person:
either by removing the key button from the transmitter or locking it in an inaccessible place.
- The user must ensure that the instruction manual is accessible at all times and that operators have read and understood it.
INSTRUCTIONS
- Take up position in a stable place with no risk of slipping.
- Before using the transmitter, make sure there is nobody within the working area.
- Only use the transmitter with its carrying device or installed correctly on the platform.
 IMPORTANT 
When you remove the transmitter, remove the accumulator and key button so that it cannot be used accidentally or deliberately by anyone else.
PROTECTIVE DEVICES
- The lift truck will be immobilised within a maximum of 450 milliseconds (approx. 0.5 second):
• If the emergency stop button of the transmitter is pressed (50 milliseconds), or that of the lift truck.
• If the transmission distance of the radio waves is exceeded.
• If the transmitter is faulty.
• If an interfering radio signal is received from elsewhere.
• If the accumulator is removed from its housing in the transmitter.
• If the battery reaches the end of its autonomy.
• If the transmitter is switched off by turning the key switch to the off position.
- These protective devices are provided for the safety of personnel and property and must never be modified, removed
or bypassed in any way whatsoever!
- The hand-guard frame prevents external action on a manipulator (e.g. if the transmitter is dropped, or if the operator
leans on a guard-rail).
- An electronic safety device prevents radio transmission from being initiated if the manipulators are not mechanically
and electrically at rest and if the internal combustion engine speed selector is not set to idle.
 IMPORTANT 
In an emergency, press the transmitter emergency stop button immediately; then follow the manual's instructions ( 2 - DESCRIPTION: COMMAND AND CONTROL
INSTRUMENTS).

A - VISUAL ALARMS
• A1 - A2 - A3: There is a significant reserve of longitudinal stability. A8
• A4 - A5: The lift truck is approaching the limit of longitudinal stability. Manoeuvre
A7
carefully.
A6
• A6: The lift truck is close to the limit for longitudinal stability. Manoeuvre carefully.
• A7: The lift truck is very close to the limit of longitudinal stability. Manoeuvre A5
with extreme caution. A4
• A8: The lift truck is at the authorised limit of longitudinal stability. A3
B - HYDRAULIC MOVEMENT CUT-OFF A2
FOR AUSTRALIA: Telescope(s) in retracted position and angle <10° below the lowest A1
boom position.
NOTE: Only in configuration 2 and 3, when A9 is ON, it warns
operator that the cut-off movement function is disabled (overriden).
"HANDLING" MODE
• A8: All “AGGRAVATING” hydraulic movements are cut off. Only perform de-aggravating hydraulic movements in the
following order: retract and raise the boom.
"SUSPENDED LOAD" MODE
• A8: All “AGGRAVATING” and boom raising hydraulic movements are cut-off. Only the boom retraction hydraulic
movement is available.
C - DISABLING “AGGRAVATING” HYDRAULIC MOVEMENT CUT-OFF
 IMPORTANT 
Remain very vigilant during this operation. The only information available to the operator is the lift truck’s dynamic C1
stability.
Authorization of this function can be configured from the OPT menu in the menu screen. C

In certain cases, in order to get out of a difficult situation, the operator can bypass this
safety system. Button C temporarily disables the cut-off of “AGGRAVATING” hydraulic
movements.
- Hold down button C, indicator lamps A9 and C1 will light (60 second time delay), and at the same time perform the
necessary “AGGRAVATING” hydraulic movement with extreme care.
D - TESTING THE LONGITUDINAL STABILITY LIMITER AND WARNING DEVICE

- Short press on the button at any time to verify that the longitudinal stability alarm is working.
• Correct operation: All the LEDs A1 to A8 light for two seconds and an audible alarm is sounded.
NOTE: This test does not check the proper adjustment of the longitudinal stability limiter that must be inspected daily or
after every 10 hours of service ( 3 - MAINTENANCE).

E - STRAIN GAUGE
 IMPORTANT 
Disassembly or calibration of the strain gauge is prohibited, this must only be done by specially trained personnel,
consult your dealer. E

21 - GEAR LEVER
In order to change gear, it is necessary to cut the transmission by pressing button 1 on 2 4
the lever.

• 1st gear: To the left, backwards.
• 2nd gear: To the left, forwards.
• 3rd gear: To the right, backwards.
• 4th gear: To the right, forwards. 1 3

CONDITION FOR USING THE TRANSMISSION GEAR RATIOS


NOTE: On these forklift trucks with a torque converter, it is not necessary to start
automatically in 1st gear and progress up the gears.
 IMPORTANT 
The gear box ratio selection should be made carefully depending on the work to be performed.
A poor choice may result in the extremely rapid rise of the gear box oil temperature through excessive slipping of the converter, which could lead to serious damage (it is
essential to stop and change the working conditions if the gear box oil temperature indicator lamp comes on).
This poor choice may also result in the forklift truck's performance deteriorating in forward gear. When the forward force increases, the forward speed in the r ratio (for
example, in 3rd gear) may be lower than the forward speed that could be obtained with the r-1 gear (in 2nd instead of 3rd).
In general, we would advise you to use the following gears according to the nature of the work being carried out.
• On the road: Set off in 3rd gear and change up to 4th if the conditions and state of the road permit it. In mountainous
areas, set off in 2nd gear and change up to 3rd if the conditions and state of the road permit it.
• With a trailer on the road: Set off in 2nd gear and move to 3rd if the conditions and state of the road permit it.
• Handling: 3rd gear.
2nd gear in narrow spaces.
• Earth moving: 1st gear.
• Loading (reclaiming with bucket, manure fork, etc.): 2nd gear.

24 - AIR CONDITIONING CONTROLS (AIR CONDITIONING OPTION)
 IMPORTANT 
The air conditioning only works if the lift truck has been started.
When using your air conditioning, it is essential to work with the cab closed.
In winter: So as to ensure that the air conditioning unit is correctly operated and completely efficient, start up the compressor once a week, even for a short period of time,
in order to lubricate the internal seals.
In cold weather: Warm the engine before switching on the compressor, in order to allow the coolant that has collected in the liquid state at the lowest point of the
compressor’s circuit to turn into gas under the effect of the heat given off by the engine, as the compressor is liable to be damaged by coolant in the liquid state.
If your air conditioning does not seem to be working correctly, have it examined by your dealer ( 3 - MAINTENANCE).
Never try to repair any faults yourself.

TOWING PIN AND HOOK

 IMPORTANT 
Do not tow a trailer or an attachment that is not in perfect working condition.
Using a trailer in poor condition may affect the lift truck's steering and braking, and hence the safety of the assembly.
If a third party helps in coupling or uncoupling the trailer, this person must be permanently visible to the driver and wait until the lift truck has stopped, the handbrake is
on and the I.C. engine is switched off before performing the operation.
Located at the rear of the lift truck, this device is used to couple a trailer. Its capacity is limited for each lift truck by the
authorised gross vehicle weight, tractive effort and maximum vertical force on the coupling point. This information is given
on the manufacturer's plate fixed to each lift truck ( IDENTIFICATION OF THE LIFT TRUCK).
- To use a trailer, see current regulations in your country (maximum running speed, braking, maximum weight of trailer, etc.).
- Verify the trailer's condition before using it (tyre condition and pressures, electrical connection, hydraulic hose, brake
system…).

CHECK Boom outer chain wear MT-X 1840 …


- Chain wear occurs at a number of locations.
• On the joints, which leads to elongation of the chain.
• On the edge of link plates through contact with the pulleys.
• On the sides of the plates and the protruding pins through contact with the pulley flanges.
• On the alignment of the flats of the extended pins.
CHAIN ELONGATION
We recommend that you perform this operation using the chain checking gauge
(MANITOU part No.: 161583).
- Set the lift truck on its stabilisers, with the boom horizontal.
- Fully extend the telescopes and continue operating the control for a few moments
to properly tension the chains.
- As the chain will likely wear unevenly over its length, divide the chain into 4 equal
sections and check with the gauge at the center of each section.
25,4 mm x 9 = 228,6 mm 19,05 mm x 12 = 228,6 mm

25.4 mm 19.05 mm
= = = = = = = =

 IMPORTANT 
If the maximum dimension is exceeded (228,6 mm + +2 % = 233,2 mm), replace the pair of chains (contact your dealer).
PLATE EDGE WEAR
As for chain elongation, perform a check in the middle of each equal section using a caliper gauge.
15.5 mm
24 mm

 IMPORTANT 
Above the minimum dimension (24 mm - 2 % = 23.5 mm and 15.5 mm -2 % = 15.2 mm), replace the pair of chains (contact your dealer).
EXTENDED PIN WEAR
As for chain elongation, perform a check in the middle of each equal section using a caliper gauge.
42.25 mm
53.6 mm

 IMPORTANT 
Above the minimum dimension (53.6 mm - 2 % = 52.5 mm and 42.25 mm -2 % = 41.4 mm), replace the pair of chains (contact your dealer).
- In addition to wear, the high pressures between the side of the plates and the pulleys may force out material, causing
the articulations to jam. Replace the pair of chains in this case also.
ALIGNMENT OF EXTENDED PIN FLATS
Check the chains over their entire length.
- High friction between the plates and the extended pins may cause the pins to turn within the outer plates and thus
come out of their housing.
NOT OK OK

INTRODUCTION
- Your lift truck must be used with interchangeable equipment. These items are called: ATTACHMENTS.
- A wide range of attachments is available, guaranteed by MANITOU and designed to fit your lift truck perfectly.
 IMPORTANT 
Only attachments approved by MANITOU can be used on its lift trucks ( TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF ATTACHMENTS).
The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any modifications or adaptations to attachments without its knowledge.
- The attachments are delivered with a load chart concerning your lift truck. The operator's manual and the load chart
should be kept in the places provided in the lift truck. For standard attachments, their use is governed by the instructions
contained on this notice.
 IMPORTANT 
Maximum loads are defined by the capacity of a lift truck taking account of the attachment's mass and centre of gravity.
In the event of the attachment having less capacity than the lift truck, never exceed this limit.
- Some particular uses require the adaptation of the attachment which is not provided in the price-listed options. Optional
solutions exist, consult your dealer.
 IMPORTANT 
Depending on their size, certain attachments may, when the boom is lowered and retracted, come into contact with the front tyres and cause damage to them if crowd is
activated in the direction of dump.
TO PREVENT THIS RISK, EXTEND THE TELESCOPE TO A SUFFICIENT EXTENT FOR THE PARTICULAR LIFT TRUCK AND ATTACHMENT SO THAT THIS CONTACT IS NOT POSSIBLE.
SUSPENDED LOAD
 IMPORTANT 
Suspended loads MUST be handled with a lift truck designed for that purpose ( 1 - OPERATING AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS: LOAD HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS:
H - PICKING UP AND PUTTING DOWN A SUSPENDED LOAD).
USE THE SINGLE SIDE-SHIFT CARRIAGE
 IMPORTANT 
The single side-shift carriage (TSDL) is only compatible with the following attachments:
• floating fork carriage (TFF)
• tilting fork carriage (PFB)
• loading bucket (CBR)
• concrete bucket (BB, BBG)
• spout bucket (GL)
• crane jib and crane jib with winch (P, PT, PO, PC)
• winch (H)
• fixed platform, swivelling platform, roofer’s platform.
It is prohibited to use any other attachments on the TSDL.
If it is being used with a loading bucket (CBR), the single side-shift carriage MUST be centred and no side-shift operations performed.
Attachments authorised for use on the TSDL must comply strictly with the applications for which they are designed.
It is prohibited to use them for any other application (for example, earth moving, excavation, desurfacing, back scraping, etc. for the loading bucket CBR) or any
application placing abnormal stress on the structure of the TSDL: risk of deformation which could cause the load to fall.
USE OF BUCKETS
 IMPORTANT 
MT-X 1440/1840 … lift trucks are essentially intended for handling. Occasional use with the buckets CBC/CBR/CB4x1 is authorised (only with the boom fully retracted, in
order to reduce stresses on the boom head), but under no circumstances is intensive use for difficult applications (quarry, waste, cereals, agriculture, etc) permitted. Back-
scraping is also forbidden with the MT-X 1840 … lift trucks to avoid additional stresses on the inner boom chains.
