The information in this Operator’s Manual was written to give the owner/operator assistance in preparing, adjust-
ing, maintaining and servicing of the Telescopic Handler. More important, this manual provides an operating plan
for safe and proper use of the machine. Major points of safe operation are detailed in the SAFETY chapter of this
manual.
GEHL Company asks that you read and understand the contents of this manual
COMPLETELY and become familiar with the machine before operating it.
The use of this Telescopic Handler is subject to certain hazards that cannot be eliminated by mechanical means,
but only by the exercise of intelligence, care and common sense. It is therefore essential to have competent and
careful operators, who are not physically or mentally impaired, and who are thoroughly trained in the safe opera-
tion of the equipment and the handling of the loads.
Throughout this manual information is provided that is set in italic type and introduced by the word IMPORTANT
or NOTE. Be sure to read carefully and comply with the message or directive given. Following this information
will improve operating and maintenance efficiency, help to avoid breakdowns and damage, and extend the
machine’s life. A chart of standard hardware torques is located in the back of this manual.
A storage pocket in the back of the seat is provided for storing the Operator’s Manual. After using the manual,
please return it to the pocket and keep it with the unit at all times! If this machine is resold, GEHL Company rec-
ommends that this manual be given to the new owner.
If this machine was purchased “used,” or if the owner’s address has changed, please provide your GEHL dealer or
GEHL Company Service Department with the owner’s name and current address, along with the machine model
and serial number. This will allow the registered owner information to be updated, so that the owner can be noti-
fied directly in case of an important product issue, such as a safety update program.
“Right” and “left” are determined from a position sitting on the seat and facing forward.
The wide GEHL dealership network stands ready to provide any assistance required, including providing genuine

mation about the part, and include the model and serial number of the machine. Record the serial number in the
