OPERATION

PLACING A LOAD

GTH-644, GTH-842, GTH-844

When placing a load with the Model GTH-644, GTH-842, or the GTH-844 the rear axle stabilizing cylinders need to be taken into consideration. When the boom reaches an angle of 60 DEGREES, all frame leveling and transmission functions are disabled and the rear axle stabilizing cylinders become locked. This DOES NOT affect any boom or fork functions. To unlock the rear axle stabilizing cylinders and enable the transmission functions, lower the boom to a position less than 60 degrees.
