Know the Hazards

DRIVE WHEEL DIRECTION INDICATOR LIGHTS

The green light in the center shows you that the drive 
wheel is straight (within 1 degree). 

The yellow lights to either side show the approximate 
position of the drive wheel while turning.

POWER UNIT SWING

Be careful turning while traveling forks first.  The 
power unit will swing wide in the opposite direction.  
Make sure you have clearance, and watch out for 
people in the area.

SLOW DOWN FOR SPILLS OR WET FLOORS

Powder or liquid spills can cause slippery floors.  
Slow down or you could lose control of steering and 
braking. Be careful and allow for a longer stopping 
distance.

Don't run over objects on the floor.
