HYDRAULIC OPERATIONS CAN AFFECT STABILITY
Capacities shown on your capacity plate are for loads
that are centered and level. Be extra careful when tilting
a load. (This also applies to accessories or attachments
your truck may have, such as sideshift, carton clamp,
push-pull, etc.)
Note:
The left side of each lever has a different shape, to
help you identify them by feel.
HYDRAULIC LEVER OPERATION
Pull a lever toward you, away from the mast, and you'll
get the action shown by the symbol in the top of the
lever. Push the lever away from you, toward the mast,
and you'll get the opposite action.
The farther you move the lever from neutral, the faster
the action will be.
