USING COAST REQUIRES EVEN MORE CAUTION
• Automatic braking is disabled when Coast is
activated. Handle must be manually moved to a
brake
position.
• Floors must be level and free of obstacles.
• Never allow the truck to coast into a cross aisle.
• Do not use coast in pedestrian walkways.
• Watch out for people and other trucks.
• Do not walk in the path of a coasting truck. Stay
to the side of the truck with your arm extended and
keep your feet clear.
• Use coast while traveling power unit first only.
• Always turn coast off when you finish a coast
operation, or whenever you leave your vehicle.
• For QuickCoast equipped trucks, when you turn
coast off or turn the truck off, make certain your
body is not in the path of the control handle as it
returns to vertical.

SELECTOR
COAST ON
Move the control handle to the coast position and
press the coast selector button on the back of the grab
bar, opposite the raise/lower switches. The “no-brake”
symbol on the display will light and a single “beep”
will sound to warn that the truck is in the coast mode.
With coast on, the truck will coast when you let go of
the control handle. You must move the handle to
a brake position to apply the brake. A “beep” will
continue to sound as long as the handle is in the brake
position.
COAST OFF
To turn coast off, either press the high travel speed
button on the grab bar, turn the key switch to OFF, or
disconnect the battery. The “no-brake” symbol will go
out, and the control handle will return to vertical.
If you accidentally hit the reversing button when the
handle is in the coast position, coast is also disabled.
When coast is disabled, braking will return to standard
operation (see page 16).
WHEN USING COAST
• Travel power unit fi rst only.
• Don't get in the path of the
truck and watch your feet.
• Stay to the side of the truck.
Keep your arm extended
to give maximum clearance
between you and the truck.
