Traveling & Plugging

TRAVEL, POWER UNIT FIRST
Pull the multi-task handle toward you to travel
in the direction of the power unit (power unit
first).

The farther you pull the handle from the
neutral position, the faster the truck will
travel.

TRAVEL, FORKS FIRST
Push the multi-task handle away from you
to travel in the direction of the forks (forks
first).

The farther you push the handle from the
neutral position, the faster the truck will
travel.

PLUGGING
Plugging is another way to slow down or
stop your truck.

While the truck is moving, in either direction,
pull or push the multi-task handle through
neutral to the opposite direction of travel.

Plugging will not hurt your truck.

Press the button on the multi-task handle to sound the
horn. Use it to warn pedestrians and other drivers.

Of the two, the foot brake is designed to stop the truck in
the shortest distance. Use the foot brake in an emergency,
on ramps or in busy areas.
