TRAVEL

Push the Forward/Reverse Rocker in the
direction you want to travel.

The farther you move the rocker from the neutral
position, the faster the truck will move.

REVERSING BUTTON

If you accidentally hit the reversing button while working
in close quarters, the truck will move in the direction of
the forks until the button is released.

Be careful.  The reversing button cannot prevent all injuries.

PLUGGING

Plugging is another way to slow down your truck.
While the truck is moving, in either direction, move the
Forward/Reverse rocker through neutral to the opposite
direction of travel.

Plugging will not hurt your truck.

HIGH TRAVEL SPEED

For high travel speed, push the high travel speed switch
on the control handle and move the Forward/Reverse
Rocker to the maximun travel speed position.
