FORK FUNCTIONS

Reach (extend and retract).
Some optional fork functions your truck may be 

equipped with are Sideshift (right or left), Rack Height

the forks will stop at selected heights, and Tilt Position 

Assist to tilt the forks to a programmed position.

RAISE/LOWER

down on the handle to lower the forks. 
The farther you move the multi-task handle from 

neutral, the faster the forks will move.

RAISE CUTOUT OPTION

Your truck may be equipped with an automatic cutout 

to prevent you from raising the forks into restricted 

areas. 
If raise stops, check the message display.

CHECK THE PATH OF THE FORKS

Be just as careful raising the forks with the rack height 

select option as when using manual raise. Make certain 

the path of the forks is clear and free of obstacles.
Check that the forks are at the proper position to enter 

the pallet, or that the pallet will clear the rack beam.

RACK HEIGHT SELECT OPTION

This option allows a truck to be programmed so the 

forks will stop at a selected height.
1.  Press the UP or DOWN ARROW button until the 

message display shows                                   .   

2.  Select the RIGHT ARROW to enter rack select mode.
3.  Press the switch on the back of the multi-task handle 

to scroll through the lift heights that have been 

programmed into the truck. The message display will 

show the height in either millimeters or inches, along 

with the label number for the height.
Or, while raising or lowering, press and release the 

switch to select the next programmed rack height.

4.  Make certain the path of the forks is clear. Lift and 

hold the multi-task handle. The forks will stop and 

there will be a one second beep when they reach the 

programmed height. Check to make certain the forks 

are at the correct position before entering the rack or 

pallet.
