Raise & Lower

RAISE & LOWER

Primary raise and lower lets you move the entire 
operator platform, and forks, up or down on the 
primary mast. 
Auxiliary raise and lower lets you move just the 
forks up or down on the auxiliary mast.

Primary Raise & Lower (right multi-task handle)

Move the right multi-task handle to the 
right to raise the platform and forks 
Move the handle to the left to lower 
the platform and forks. 
The farther you move the multi-task 
handle from the neutral position, the 
faster the platform will raise or lower.

Auxiliary Raise & Lower (left multi-task handle)

Roll the thumb ball up to raise only the 
forks, Roll the ball down to lower only 
the forks. 
The farther you move the ball from 
the neutral position, the faster the 
forks will raise or lower.

MANUAL LOWERING

If there is a problem with primary lowering, you can 
have someone on the fl oor lower the platform by using 
the manual lowering valve. The valve is located under 
the rear power unit cover, on the right side of the truck.
You must fi rst make certain the forks are traversed clear 
of the rack. See page 24 for manual traverse.

Note: 

 Always be alert to a display message or any other 

indications that the lift chains have become slack. 
A slack chain condition can cause serious injury by 
allowing the platform to drop suddenly.
Stop lowering immediately if chains become slack.

FOOT PRESENCE PEDALS

Whether sitting or standing, you must have your feet 
on two of the three foot presence pedals to operate 
the truck.

Note: 

 If you remove a foot from one of the presence 

pedals while standing, the brake is applied. However 
if you remove a foot from one of the presence pedals 
while seated, the truck will coast. You must use the 
brake pedals or plugging to stop the truck (see pages 
19 & 20).

CHECK YOUR DISPLAY

If any truck function doesn't work, your hands or feet 
may be out of position, check the message area of the 
display for instructions.

Know the Hazards

DANGER

Falling from a raised platform can 
cause serious injury or even death.

Attach safety harness and 
lanyard when elevated and 
working with an open side 
gate or with narrow front 
rail option.

FALLS CAN KILL

You can reduce the risk of injury by being extra careful 
while working on an elevated Turret Stockpicker.

•  Put the side gates down and keep your entire body  
  inside the operator area.

•  Always watch where you're going.  Running into an  
  object could cause you to fall.
•  Wear your harness and keep your lanyard fastened  
  when working with an open side gate, or if your truck 
  has the narrow front rail option.
