Always keep hands and fingers away from bars of tilt
linkage.
1) Make sure there is sufficient clearance for the load to tilt without
contacting the operator or any nearby objects.
2) Maintain a firm grip on the control handle to keep the load under control
at all times, as shown below.
3) Make sure the tilt locks are disengaged (see T

to tilt the load as desired (see figure B6).
Note: Since the tilt linkage is designed to automatically maintain the load in either the upright
or the flat position, the load force on the control handle changes direction during the tilt.
4) If load size permits, maintain control with the control
handle throughout the tilt. For loads with overhang, it
may be necessary to release the handle as the load
approaches the flat position. If so, keep the load
under control using hand cups or other appropriate
means, as shown.
