Model Description
General
The Yale MPB045VG lift trucks are pedestrian-operated lift
trucks with lifting capacities of 2,041 kg (4,500 lb).
These lift trucks are electric power vehicles. A battery pro-
vides the electric power for travel and hoist functions. The
battery is located on the fork frame and moves with the
forks. The battery/battery compartment also acts as a load
backrest and helps to steady the load.
The control handle or delivery handle is used to select the
various functions of the truck, including: steering, selecta-
ble performance modes, braking, direction and speed con-
trol, lifting, lowering, and horn. See Figure 1 and Figure 2.
This lift truck can be stopped by one of three methods of
braking:
1. Plugging
2. Neutral Braking
3. Returning the control handle or delivery handle to the
brake ON position
A detailed operating instruction is provided in the Operat-
ing Procedures section of this manual.
The operator has a choice of three performance modes
that are selectable through the control handle or delivery
handle. The mode selection is made at startup or key ON.
Performance parameters that vary are:
1. Acceleration
2. Deceleration (neutral braking)
3. Top travel speed
A detailed operating instruction is provided in the Operat-
ing Procedures section of this manual.
The Operating Manual is stored in the container on the
drive compartment. This is a permanent reference and
must be available for use at all times.
