Manual Specifications File Format File Format: PDF Print Quality Print Quality: Assumed high-quality due to 'Illustrated Factory Operating Manual' description, suitable for clear reproduction. Binding Type Binding Type: N/A (Digital PDF Download) Paper Type Paper Type: N/A (Digital PDF Download) Engine Specifications Primary Engine Engine Type: LPG (Liquid Propane Gas) Performance Performance Notes: Specific horsepower and torque figures are not provided in the product description but would be dictated by the S30, S40, S50, and S60 model designations, typically correlating to lifting capacity. Engine performance is optimized for industrial use, balancing power and fuel efficiency. Fuel System Fuel System: LPG system including cylinder, regulator, and fuel lines. Manual covers cylinder changing and refilling procedures. Transmission Standard Transmission Type: Likely a hydrostatic transmission (Linde's signature technology) or a torque converter automatic transmission, optimized for smooth and precise control of travel and lift functions. Specific details are not in the product info. Optional Optional Features: N/A based on provided information. Features Features: Designed for precise speed control, smooth acceleration/deceleration, and efficient power delivery for material handling. Dimensions Exterior Exterior Dimensions: Specific dimensions (length, width, height) are not provided but vary based on the model designation (S30, S40, S50, S60) which typically correlates to lifting capacity and mast configuration. Forklift dimensions are critical for maneuverability in warehouse aisles. Weights Operating Weight: Weight specifications vary by model (S30, S40, S50, S60) and mast type. The manual does not provide these specific figures. Load Capacity: Models S30, S40, S50, S60 denote approximate lifting capacities in hundreds of kilograms or pounds (e.g., S30 might be 3000 kg/6000 lbs). Actual capacity is detailed on the load capacity plate. Safety Features Ratings Safety Ratings: Industrial forklifts are subject to OSHA (or equivalent) regulations. The manual emphasizes safe operating practices, pre-operation checks, and correct load handling to ensure operator and site safety.
