STAY ALERT

You must be just as careful and alert while driving on

guidance as you are when driving with manual steering.
• Start slowly and look where you're going.
• Always be prepared to steer manually.
• Don't run over things or drive through spills.
• Make sure there is nothing in your path, on the floor or

sticking out of the racks.

LISTEN FOR THE "BEEP", CHECK THE DISPLAY

• Take control of the steering any time the red light is on

and check the display for instructions.

WHEN DRIVING ON THE WIRE

• Watch where you're going.  Make sure your path is 

clear.

• Always be alert for "beeps" from the alarm or changes

in the display that signal changes in guidance status.

• Drive slowly after changing direction of travel until you

are certain the truck is following the wire.

CHECK THE DISPLAY FOR INFORMATION

If you hear a "beep" while you are driving, or your truck

stops unexpectedly, check the display for instructions

(see page 18).

POWER UNIT FIRST

Drive slowly over the wire at an angle of 20˚ or less.
When you hear a "beep" and the display shows

begin normal guided driving.  Start slowly.

FORKS FIRST

If you must acquire the wire while traveling forks first:
• Drive slowly along the wire (no angle allowed) until 

you hear a "beep" and the display shows

• Continue to drive slowly for two truck lengths before

resuming normal guided driving.

ACQUIRING THE WIRE

Push the Wire Guidance switch to ON

as you near a guided aisle.  Drive slowly with the

platform about 300mm (12 inches) above the floor, and

center the truck over the wire.  Your direction of travel

(power unit first or forks first) controls how you should

approach the guidance wire.

Note:

Power unit first is the recommended direction of

travel for acquiring the wire.

FOR MANUAL STEERING

Take control of the steering wheel and push the Wire

Guidance switch to OFF.
