BEFORE FIRST-TIME USE (15.3)
In case the truck is delivered with the tiller disassembled, due to transport necessity, it must be attached and the command lever adjusted according to the following
instructions before using the truck.
Tiller installation (fig. C):
• Install the tiller (1) to the hydraulic unit (5) using the provided screws (2) and washers (3). Verify that, during the positioning of the tiller on the pump, the chain (4)
goes through the hole on the tiller foot (5) and tiller pin (6).
• Rotate the lowering lever (7) and insert the pin at the end of the chain (4) in the seat (7). Verify that the tip of the pin properly enters in the seat, as shown in fig.3.
Adjustment of the command lever (fig. C):
• Put the command lever in position 2 – Lifting – and bring the forks to the maximum height using the tiller, as illustrated in paragraph CONTROLS
• Put the command lever in position 1 – Transport
• Verify that the tiller (1) is in vertical position
• Untighten the locknut (8) and slowly turn the adjustment screw clockwise (9) until the forks begin to descend
• As the forks start to descend, turn the screw (9) anti-clockwise for one and a half turn; eventually, tighten the locknut (8)
• Verify that with the command lever in position 1 – Transport – neither movement, lifting nor lowering, of the forks occurs at any position of the tiller
• Verify that with the command lever in position 3 – Lowering – the lowering of the forks occurs at any position of the tiller
WARNING: do not use the truck before all the operations and verifications described above are accomplished.
INSPECTIONS BEFORE EVERY USE
Before every use of the truck, verify that it is in a safe condition for starting the operations, in particular:
• Check whether there is any deformation, visible damage or wear on the frame
• Check the tightening of all the screws
• Check for leakages of the hydraulic pump
• Verify that the command lever and the hydraulic unit operate correctly in all the three functions of transport, lifting and lowering (see paragraph OPERATING THE
TRUCK)
• Check the rollers and castors wear
• Check the presence of the name and safety plate and their legibility. Missing, damaged or unreadable plates must be replaced before the use
• Report the presence of damages, failures or problems to the proprietor
WARNING: Do not use the truck before all the operations and verifications described above are accomplished and if damages, failures or problems are
found

SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH
In its use PAY CAREFUL ATTENTION to the following rules:
1) Do not EVER load the fork truck over its maximum capacity indicated on the "Z" rating plate (fig.B); a limiting device protects the truck from overloads
2) Fig. A explains how the load must be positioned on the forks of the transpallet to not create dangerous situations
3) It is prohibited to use the fork truck in environments with danger of fire or explosion
4) Do not load the forks when they are also partially raised
5) Temperature of use -12°C/+50°C (-30°C/+50°C GS/X-I)

The Manufacturing Firm does not assume any obligations and/or responsibility relative to breakdowns or accidents due to negligence, non-original spare
parts and improper use of the fork truck.
CONTROLS (19.5)
On the drawbar of the fork truck you will find a throttle lever which can be regulated in 3 positions as indicated on the "Y" rating plate (fig.B)
POS: -3- on the top = LOWERED
POS: -1- in the center = TRANSPORT
POS: -2- on the bottom = LIFTED
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE OF THE WEIGHING INDICATOR
The weighing system of the transpallet is composed of 4 loading cells and an LCD digital display with 5 fields (height 16 mm)
See figure E - page 3 to see the CONTROL PANEL of this weighing pallet truck:
- BATTERY ICON (Ref.1): indicates the battery level
- STB (Ref.2): indicates that the weight is stable
- ZERO (Ref.3): indicates that the scale is empty and on the zero point (gross weight)
- TARE (Ref.4): indicates that the tare weight is active and that the net weight is displayed
- kg/lb INDICATION (Ref.5): indicates the active unit of measurement (kg or lb)
- ZERO key: is used to reset the balance when the transpallet is unloaded and the display indicates a value near zero (for non-resetable values use the TARE key).
- TARE key: pressing this key the weight of the container located on the transpallet is cancelled
- ON/OFF key: start/stop switch.
TO SWITCH ON the instrument, keep ON/OFF button pressed until the status-leds light up, then release button.
After a few seconds, if the platform has been correctly connected and installed, the display will show ZERO thus indicating it is ready for weighing.
TO SWITCH OFF the instrument, keep ON/OFF button pressed until the message "Off" is displayed.
A special circuit switches off the - unloaded - instrument automatically, if it has not been operated for a set 3-minute period. In case any load is on the scale, the auto
switching off is NOT enabled.
