• Always use correct blocks to prevent the unit from rolling or falling. See HOW TO PUT THE
LIFT TRUCK ON BLOCKS in the Operating Manual or the Periodic Maintenance section.
• Keep the unit clean and the working area clean and orderly.
• Always use YALE APPROVED parts when making repairs. Replacement parts must meet
or exceed the specifications of the original equipment manufacturer.
• Make sure all nuts, bolts, snap rings, and other fastening devices are removed before using
force to remove parts.
• Always fasten a DO NOT OPERATE tag to the controls of the unit when making repairs, or
if the unit needs repairs.
• Gasoline, Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG), Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), and Diesel fuel are
flammable. Be sure to follow the necessary safety precautions when handling these fuels
and when working on these fuel systems.
• Batteries generate flammable gas when they are being charged. Keep fire and sparks away
from the area. Make sure the area is well ventilated.

quired for the SEM traction circuit. This contactor is

change the speed during field weakening, it is nec-
essary to change the resistor value. In a separately
excited motor, independent control of the field current
provides for an infinite adjustment of field-weakened
speeds, between motor base speed and maximum
weak field. The transistorized control also eliminates
the contactor and resistor required for field weakening
with a series motor.
Regenerative Braking
Regenerative braking (braking energy returned to the
battery) may be accomplished completely with solid-
state technology. The main advantage of regenerative
braking is increased motor life. Motor current is reduced
by 50 percent or more during braking while maintain-

Special Precautions
WARNING
To avoid injury and prevent electrical shock, per-
form the following steps before performing any
troubleshooting, adjustments, or connecting or
disconnecting of a handset or PC:
1. Block the lift truck so that the drive wheels are
off the floor. See the section Periodic Mainte-
nance 8000 YRM 699 or Periodic Maintenance
8000 YRM 772. Refer to How to Put the Lift Truck
on Blocks.
2. Turn the key switch to the OFF position and un-
plug the battery.
3. Discharge the capacitors in the controllers by
connecting a 200-ohm, 2-watt resistor across
the controller’s POS and NEG terminals (outer
two power cable terminals). See Figure 6 or Fig-
