PEDAL

BRAKE PEDAL AND TRANSMISSION CUT- OFF

The pedal applies on the front and rear wheels by an hydraulic brake system, and allows the lift truck to be slowed down and
stopped. Depending on the position of the transmission cut-off switch, it enables the free travel to cut off transmission (See
chapter : 38 - USE OF TRANSMISSION CUT-OFF in paragraph : 2 - DESCRIPTION).

LEVER AND TRANSMISSION CUT- OFF

MLT 740 Turbo Srie 1

In order to change speeds, it is necessary to cut the transmission by pressing the button
1 on the lever (See chapter : 38 - USE OF TRANSMISSION CUT-OFF in paragraph : 2 DESCRIPTION).

1st gear : To the right, backwards.

2nd gear : To the right, forwards.
3rd gear : To the left, backwards.
4th gear : To the left, forwards.

USING THE GEARS ON THE GEARBOX

- On these lift trucks with a torque converter, it is not necessary to automatically start up in 1st speed and progress up the
gears.
The choice of gear ratio should be made carefully according to the nature of the work being carried out. A poor choice may
result in the extremely rapid elevation of the transmission oil temperature through excessive slipping of the converter, which
could lead to serious damage to the transmission (it is essential to stop and change the working conditions if the
transmission oil temperature indicator light comes on). This poor choice may also result in a reduction in the lift truck's
performance in forward speed. When the forward force increases, the forward speed in the r gear (for example 3rd gear) may
be lower than the forward speed that could be obtained with the r-1 gear (in 2nd instead of the 3rd).
In general, we would advise you to use the following gears according to the nature of the work being carried out.
On the road : Set off in 3rd gear and go up to 4th if the conditions and state of the road permit it. In hilly areas, set off in 2nd
gear and go up to 3rd if the conditions and state of the road permit it.
With a trailer on the road : Set off in 2nd gear and go up to 3rd if the conditions and state of the road permit it.
Handling : 3rd gear.
2nd gear in restricted spaces.
Earth moving : 1st gear.
Loading (reclaiming with bucket, manure fork, etc.) : 2nd gear.

18 - FORWARD/REVERSE

LEVER

MLT 740 Turbo Srie 1

When operating this control, the lift truck should be travelling at slow speed and not
accelerating. When the reverser is in the neutral position a mechanical lock prevents an
accidental shifting movement.
FORWARD : Lift slightly and push the lever forwards (Position A).
REVERSE : Lift slightly and pull the lever backwards (Position B).
NEUTRAL : To start the lift truck, the lever must be in neutral (Position C).

LEVER AND GEAR SELECTOR

MLT 740 -120 LSU POWERSHIFT Srie 1

A

FORWARD/ REVERSE LEVER

When operating this control, the lift truck should be travelling at slow speed and not
accelerating. During this operation, the selected speed remains the same, except for the
4th gear in forward motion which becomes 3rd gear in reverse motion. When the
reverser is in the neutral position a mechanical lock prevents an accidental shifting
movement.

FORWARD : Lift slightly and push the lever forwards (Position A).
REVERSE : Lift slightly and pull the lever backwards (Position B).
NEUTRAL : To start the lift truck, the lever must be in neutral (Position C).
NOTE : The reverse lights indicate that the lift truck is running in reverse motion. As well, an OPTION sound alarm on reverse
motion exists.
GEAR SELECTOR
The selected gear is indicated on dial 1.
FORWARD GEAR
- Index 1 : 1st gear.
- Index 2 : 2nd gear.
- Index 3 : 3rd gear.
- Index 4 : 4th gear and automatic stepping up into 5th gear when the engine speed is increased.
Automatic changing down into 4th gear when the engine speed is reduced.
REVERSE GEAR
- Index 1 : 1st gear.
- Index 2 and 3 : 2nd gear.
- Index 4 : 3rd gear.

USING THE GEARS ON THE GEARBOX

- On these lift trucks with a torque converter, it is not necessary to automatically start up in 1st speed and progress up the
gears.
The choice of gear ratio should be made carefully according to the nature of the work being carried out. A poor choice may
result in the extremely rapid elevation of the transmission oil temperature through excessive slipping of the converter, which
could lead to serious damage to the transmission (it is essential to stop and change the working conditions if the
transmission oil temperature indicator light comes on). This poor choice may also result in a reduction in the lift truck's
performance in forward speed. When the forward force increases, the forward speed in the r gear (for example 3rd gear) may
be lower than the forward speed that could be obtained with the r-1 gear (in 2nd instead of the 3rd).
In general, we would advise you to use the following gears according to the nature of the work being carried out.
On the road : Set off in 4th gear if the conditions and state of the road permit it. In hilly areas, set off in 3rd gear and go up to
4th (the use of the 5th gear is prohibited) if the conditions and state of the road permit it.
With a trailer on the road : Set off in 2nd gear and go up to 3rd and then to 4th if the conditions and state of the road permit it.
Handling : 3rd or 4th gear.
2nd gear in restricted spaces.
Earth moving : 1st gear.
Loading (reclaiming with bucket, manure fork, etc.) : 2nd gear.
PULSE DOWNSHIFTING (KICK DOWN)
Button 2 on the end of the lever lets you change down one gear with an initial pulse (The selected gear flashes on the dial 1)
and re-engage the initial with a second pulse. This function can be used for climbing gradients or for earthworks for example.

SWITCH FOR DISABLING AUTOMATIC 5TH GEAR

This switch gives the option of disabling automatic 5th gear and should be used
according to the work required. When the indicator light is on, this option is in use.
Use of this device should be compulsory if you are pulling a trailer, in order to reduce
the risk of overheating the transmission. In addition, disabling automatic 5th gear will
ensure that you are complying with the speed limits when a coupling is attached.

CONDITIONING CONTROLS

(OPTION

AIR CONDITIONING )

The air conditioning only comes on when the forklift truck has been started up.
When using your air conditioning, you must work with the doors and windows closed.
In winter : So as to ensure correct operation and complete efficiency of the air conditioning unit, start up the compressor
once a week, if only for a short spell, so as to lubricate the internal seals.
In cold weather : Warm the engine before switching on the compressor, so as to allow the coolant that has collected in the
liquid state at the lowest point of the compressor circuit to turn into gas under the effect of the heat given off by the engine,
as the compressor is liable to be damaged by coolant in the liquid state.
If your air conditioning does not seem to be working regularly, have it examined by your agent or dealer (See chapter : H EVERY TWO YEARS "OPTION AIR CONDITIONING" in paragraph : 3 - MAINTENANCE). Never try to repair any anomalies
yourself.
DESCRIPTION OF THE AIR CONDITIONING CONTROLS
A - Control with signal light indicating start-up and cutout of the air conditioning
system, if control "D" is in position 1, 2 or 3.
B - Heating air temperature control.
C - Conditioned air temperature control.
D - Air flow setting and fan speed control. In position "0" the air conditioning system
no longer functions.

NOTE : Possible losses of water under the forklift truck are due to condensate discharges caused by the drying effect of the
installation, especially with high outside temperatures and high relative humidity.
For the air conditioning to perform properly, the air intakes must not be blocked by frost, snow or leaves.
When the facility is running, at least one of the cab air grilles must be open so as to avoid any risk of freezing to the
evaporator.
HEATING MODE
The controls must be adjusted in the following way :
A - Control with signal light off.
B - At the required temperature.
C - At the end of travel to the left.
D - At the required temperature 1, 2 or 3.
