10. Do not release the switch trigger on upward
slopes. The machine may go in reverse and
cause an accident.
11.
Make sure that the remaining battery capacity
is enough before operating on slopes. If the
remaining battery capacity is not enough,
charge the battery or replace it with a charged
one.
12. When starting the machine on slopes, do not
place your foot behind the rear wheel since the
machine moves back a few centimeters.
Loading objects
1.
Do not overload objects. When loading
objects, be sure to follow the instructions and
load limits in the manual.
Since the larger the load, the more difficult it
2.
is to operate the machine, keep the load within
the range that does not affect the operation.
3.
Firmly secure the objects with ropes.
4.
Load the objects within the carrier or bucket.
If the objects protrude from the carrier or bucket,
there is a risk of accidents due to the objects
falling or contact obstacles such as walls.
5.
Be sure that loaded objects are below eye
level. If the load is too high, it is dangerous
because the view is obscured. Also, there is a risk
of overturning and injury because the load is likely
to be unbalanced.
6.
Load the objects on the carrier or bucket
evenly. If the objects are loaded unevenly, there is
a risk of overturning and injury because the load is
likely to be unbalanced.
7.
Before loading the objects or operating the
machine, make sure that the handle of the
dump unit is fully pulled down and completely
locked.
Be sure to load heavy objects first to keep
8.
balance.
9.
Do not extend the front and side rails on steep
slopes. Extend the side rails when lightweight
objects are loaded.
10. When extending the front and side rails, do not
extend them over the extension limit. Be sure
to extend the side rails so that the right and
left sides are the same length, and load objects
evenly.
Load and unload objects on flat ground. Never
11.
load or unload objects on slope.
12. When lifting and tilting the carrier or bucket,
hold the handles and frame firmly, and work in
a stable posture.
Transportation of machine
1.
Use the ladder rails that are at least 4 times
as long as the height of the truck bed, with
fixtures suitable for the bed, with a non-slip
surface and sufficient width, and capable of
withstanding the weight of the machine and
operator. Read the instruction manual of the
ladder rails carefully before use.
2.
Before loading the machine, unload all objects
from the machine and remove mud and other
debris from the tires. Install the ladder rails on
a flat and stable surface.
3.
Before loading or unloading the machine,
make sure that there are no people around the
machine and the ladder rails. Load or unload
the machine at low speed, taking care to pre-
vent the machine from falling off the ladder
rails, and not to hit your head on the ceiling of
the truck. Use extreme caution when loading
or unloading the machine backward.
4.
When transporting the machine, lock the brake
lever, turn the power off, remove the batteries
and lock key, and fix the machine securely.
Maintenance and storage
1.
Before storage or attempting to perform
inspections or maintenance, always be sure
to stop the machine on flat ground and lock
the brake lever, and turn off the machine, and
remove the lock key and battery cartridges.
2.
Do not leave the machine unattended outdoors
in the rain.
3.
When storing the machine, avoid direct sun-
light and rain, and store it in a place where it
does not get hot or humid.
4.
This machine is equipped with a hydraulic
unit on the underside of the dump unit to auto-
matically tilt the dump unit. Do not modify the
hydraulic unit, or do not loosen the mounting
bolts of the unit or the adjustment screws of
the relief valve. It is very dangerous as it may
cause accidents or malfunctions.
Battery tool use and care
1.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off-position before connecting
to battery pack, picking up or carrying the
machine. Carrying the machine with your finger
on the switch or energizing machine that have the
switch on invites accidents.
2.
Disconnect the battery pack from the machine
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing machine. Such preven-
tive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
machine accidentally.
Recharge only with the charger specified by
3.
the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for
one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire
when used with another battery pack.
Use machines only with specifically desig-
4.
nated battery packs. Use of any other battery
packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
5.
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away
from other metal objects, like paper clips,
coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal
objects, that can make a connection from one
terminal to another. Shorting the battery termi-
nals together may cause burns or a fire.
6.
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If con-
tact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If
liquid contacts eyes, seek medical help. Liquid
ejected from the battery may cause irritation or
burns.
7.
Do not use a battery pack or machine that is
damaged or modified. Damaged or modified
batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour
resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
