Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do if the Battery Discharge Indicator comes on during use?
Plan to complete your current task and then return the 8410 to the charging station before the battery is fully depleted.
Why is the Overload light coming on even with a normal pallet?
Check that the load is evenly distributed and within the truck’s capacity; if the warning persists, the load sensor may need inspection.
Can I continue operating if the Master Caution light is illuminated?
You may continue with caution, but you should report the issue and arrange for maintenance soon to avoid further complications.
How do I reset the service/hour meter reminder?
After completing scheduled maintenance, the technician will reset the hour meter using the onboard controls or diagnostic tool.
