TILT UP & DOWN

Pull the tilt lever toward you to tilt the fork tips up. Push

the lever away from you to tilt the fork tips down.
The farther you move the lever away from neutral, in

either direction, the faster the forks will move.

TILT POSITION ASSIST OPTION

If your truck is equipped with this option, and it is turned

on, the forks will stop at the programed tilt position.
To tilt farther, repeat the tilt lever motion.

FORK POSITION WILL VARY DEPENDING ON LOAD

The tilt of the forks and raised height of the forks will

change depending on how much load is on the forks.
Always check to see that the forks are at the correct tilt

position and lift height to enter a pallet, or that the pallet

and load will clear the rack beams.
Be just as careful when using programmed functions as

when operating the truck manually.
