ATTENTION: Perform this check in a well-ventilated area. Do not park Fork-Lift over holes or depressions. LPG is heavier than the air and therefore stratifies at deepest location on the floor. Smoking and the use of flames is prohibited during these checks. Make sure there is no flame or spark near the check area. Lines may not be removed while the exhaust pipe is hot. LPG is extremely explosive.

Cleaned all hoses and their connections before the check?

Smelled gas or found cold areas while cleaning?

If you smell gas or find cold areas while cleaning, this indicates that there is a leak in your LPG installation. To find a suspected leak, sponge soapsuds on to the area to be checked.

Bubbling of the soapsuds indicating a leak?

If a leak is indicated by the bubbling of the soapsuds, have the LPG installation sealed by your Clark Dealer.

The hydraulic oil level must be measured with the upright let down and the forks on the floor.

Remove the dipstick from the hydraulic oil tank, wipe it with a clean cloth an replace it in the tank nozzle.

Withdraw the dipstick again and ascertain the oil level.

It must be between the marks 'full' and 'add' and may not fall below the 'add' mark.

Adequately replenish hydraulic oil as necessary.

Take this opportunity to check the condition of the breather filter.

A damaged breather filter must be replaced and a contaminated one cleaned.

For this purpose, wash the breather filter in a cleaning fluid and then allow it to dry thoroughly.
