with the counterweight leading. Descend
the ramp with the counterweight trailing
(Fig 4-8).

Figure 4-3. Unloaded Traveling Procedure
g. When ascending or descending a grade
raise forks high enough to avoid hitting the
ramp.
h. Cross all railroad tracks slowly and at a
slight angle.
i. To prevent load spillage, apply brakes
gradually and firmly.
j. When turning a corner, begin turn when
front wheels are at a right angle to the
intended path of travel and allow for rear
end swing.
k. Check the condition and capacities of all
floors, dockboards, semitrailer beds, etc.
Figure 4-10. Aisle Turning Procedure
l. To maneuver in narrow aisles, raise forks
to clear the stock pile and gain additional
maneuvering area. Extra care must be
taken with the forks raised. Watch for low-
hanging object such as water pipes,
electrical lines, etc. (Fig 4-9).
m. When operating with elevated loads, keep
mast in full back tilt position except when
actually lifting or depositing loads. Back
tilt also shortens effective truck length.
n. Take full advantage of operating space in
narrow aisles. Stay as far away from the
stock piles as possible but allow for rear-
end swing (Fig 4-10).
o. Enter box cars at a slight angle and begin
turning as soon as possible (Fig 4-11).
