UNLOADING
1. Unsecure the unit.
2. Release the locking pin and pull the T-handle
out until the locking pin engages the hole in the
end of the T-handle.
3. Roll the unit back until the rear wheels are off
the edge of the tailgate or vehicle bed.
4. Pull downward on the T-handle, allowing the
unit to slide on the loader. As the unit stops
sliding on the loader, it will pivot on the loader
to an upright position. Gradually counterbal-
ance the unit’s weight by applying an upward
force on the T-handle. This allows the unit to
settle gently on the wheels, avoiding undue
impact on the unit.
5. Return the T-handle to the stored position, making
sure the locking pin engages the T-handle.
DC Models
Replace the battery and reconnect the battery box
plug making certain it is fully engaged.

8. Return the T-handle to the stored position, making
sure the locking pin engages the T-handle.
9. Secure the unit with suitable strength rope or
tie straps using the forklift pockets located
under the base of the unit and either the upper
caster axle on UL25 models or the tilt back
frame on UL32 and UL40 models.
To prevent damage to the mast assembly,
do not place rope or tie straps across the
mast assembly when securing the unit for
transportation.
DO NOT overtighten the rope or tie straps,
damage to the machine will result.
