DISCHARGING THE CAPACITORS
WARNING
DO NOT make repairs or adjustments unless
you have been properly trained and authorized
to do so. Improper repairs and adjustments
can create dangerous operating conditions.
DO NOT operate a lift truck that needs re-
pairs. Report the need for repairs to your
supervisor immediately. If repair is necessary,
attach a DO NOT OPERATE tag on the steering
wheel and disconnect the battery.
Disconnect
the battery and allow
the
capacitors to discharge before opening an
compartment covers or inspecting or repairing
the electrical system. DO NOT place tool on
top of the battery.
If a tool causes a short
circuit, the high current flow from the battery
can cause personal
injury and property
damage.
Some checks and adjustments are performed
with the battery connected. DO NOT connect
the battery until the procedure instructs you
to do so. Never wear any metallic items on
your fingers, arms, or neck. Metal items can
accidentally make an electrical connection
and cause injury
Before performing any tests or adjustment,
block the lift truck to prevent unexpected
movement.
