GENERAL
This section contains a description and the service
procedures for the parts of the frame. These parts in-
clude the frame, counterweight assembly, overhead
guard, hood and seat assembly, access panels, and
labels. Throughout this section, forward will refer to
travel in the direction of the forks and left and right
will be determined by an operator sitting in the seat
facing forward. See Figure 1.

C. FORWARD TRAVEL
Figure 1. Truck Orientation
DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION
The frame is a single weldment with mounts for the
counterweight, overhead guard, mast, steering sys-
tem, hydraulic system and transaxles. See Figure 2.
The battery cover opens on hinges to give access to
the battery compartment. The weight of the battery
is a major part of the counterweight system on an
electric lift truck. A slot in the overhead guard per-
mits removal of the battery without removing the
overhead guard. Spacers may be added under the
battery as required on some models.
Each model of lift truck has a cast-iron counter-
weight with a weight necessary for the indicated
capacity. An access panel on the top/rear of the coun-
terweight gives access to the electronic controllers.
The hydraulic pump and motor, steering pump and
motor, drive motors and transaxles, and hydraulic
tank are under the floor plates in the operator com-
partment. The floor plates are held in position by
tabs and can be removed to give access to components
underneath.
The hydraulic control valve is fastened to the front
of the battery compartment. Three covers protect the
control valve and control linkage. The covers are fas-
tened in position by machine screws. The top covers
are locked in place and must be released and swung
open before attempting to open the battery cover.

Overhead Guard Repair
Overhead Guard Repair
WARNING
The overhead guard is part of the operator pro-
tection system. Do not operate the lift truck
without the overhead guard correctly fastened
to the lift truck.
The overhead guard is designed to provide protection
to the operator from falling objects and in the event
of a tip over. A high visibility design allows for an
unobstructed view while maintaining structural in-
tegrity. Removal of the battery is simplified by the
slot in the overhead guard. This provides access to
the battery with an overhead lifting device without
removing the overhead guard.
REMOVE
WARNING
The overhead guard is heavy. Make sure the
sling, chain, eyebolts, and crane or lifting
device have the capacity to lift the overhead
guard.
1.
Remove the six capscrews, washers, and nuts
that secure the supports of the overhead guard
to the counterweight and cowl. See Figure 6.

Hood and Seat Assembly
100 SRM 1073
Hood and Seat Assembly
The hood is the platform for the seat assembly and
is located above the battery. It functions as a battery
restraint that completely covers the battery compart-
ment. See Figure 7. Its function as the battery re-
straint, when correctly locked to the frame, is to hold
the battery in the battery compartment if an accident
causes the lift truck to tip over. The hood is com-
posed of a plastic cover attached to a metal frame.
Two hinges at the back of the hood attach it to the
frame. A sliding latch mechanism on the front of the
hood locks the hood closed during operation. A dou-
ble-dampened, gas-controlled strut holds the hood in
the open position.
Opening the sliding latch unlocks the hood from the
frame so the hood can be raised to access the bat-
tery. See Figure 8. The latch can only be accessed
after releasing and raising the hydraulic levers and
linkage assembly up and out of the way. A button on
each side of the assembly can be pressed to release
the assembly so it can be moved clear of the hood on
its hinged bracket. The latch must be in good condi-
tion and properly secured before the lift truck can be
operated. If the latch does not lock the hood in the
closed position, the hydraulic levers and linkage as-
sembly will not lock into position and the lift truck
will not operate.
A large, red button switch is mounted on the hood at
the right side of the seat assembly. This switch is an
emergency battery disconnect that allows the opera-
tor to quickly disconnect the battery while seated on
the lift truck in case of an emergency.
The seat assembly slides on seat rails that are fas-
tened to the hood by four capscrews. A lever at the
left front side of the base controls the adjustment of
the seat to the forward and backward positions. Op-
tional seats are available in cloth or vinyl with fea-
tures such as semi-suspension, full suspension, and
limited swivel. All seats have a seat switch installed
in the bottom cushion that senses operator presence.
When the operator is not on the seat, the seat switch
opens and interrupts the controller stopping opera-
tion of the lift truck.
The hood, seat belt, hip restraint brackets, seat, and
seat mount are all parts of the operator restraint sys-
tem. Checks and adjustments for the operator re-
straint system are described in the Operating Man-
ual and the section Periodic Maintenance 8000
SRM 1079.

Counterweight
WARNING
Do not operate the lift truck if the capscrews
for the counterweight are not installed. When
the capscrews are removed, the counterweight
can fall from the lift truck.
A one-piece, cast iron counterweight is used to off-
set the weight of the load. See Figure 9. The coun-
terweight is mounted to the rear of the truck using
four mounting bolts and is supported by a protruding
flange of the frame. See Figure 9. A compartment
space, accessed by a hinged door, has been designed
into the center of the counterweight to house the elec-
trical connections.
A battery platform is used to support the battery on
the lift truck frame. The battery platform also serves
as part of the counterweight system and requires the
use of an overhead lifting device for removal or in-
stallation. Be sure to replace the same battery plat-
form, or one of equal weight, if the platform must be
removed.
