Most Important Warning Lights

Overload / Capacity

Common causes

  • Attempting to lift a load beyond the rated capacity
  • Incorrect load distribution on forks
  • Faulty load sensor

What to do

Immediately lower the load, check the load's weight, and ensure proper placement. Only operate the RX50-20 within its specified lifting limits.

Battery / Charging

Common causes

  • Battery deeply discharged from prolonged use
  • Charger malfunction
  • Defective battery cell

What to do

Stop using the forklift, connect it to the approved charger, and monitor charging. If the issue persists, have the battery and charger checked by Still service.

Brake System

Common causes

  • Worn brake pads or discs
  • Hydraulic fluid leak (if equipped)
  • Brake actuator failure

What to do

Remove the RX50-20 from service, inspect the brake components, and have any faulty parts replaced by a qualified technician before resuming operation.

Hydraulic System

Common causes

  • Low hydraulic fluid level
  • Damaged hydraulic hose or cylinder
  • Contaminated hydraulic oil

What to do

Check fluid levels, inspect lines and cylinders for leaks or damage, and replace the hydraulic oil if contamination is found.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if the Battery Discharge Indicator (BDI) flashes during use?

Complete your current task and return the RX50-20 to the charging station promptly, as continued operation may trigger a lift function cutout.

Why does the Overload warning appear even with a seemingly light load?

Check that the load is centered and properly placed on the forks, and ensure the load weight is within the RX50-20's rated capacity.

How often does the RX50-20 require service based on the hour meter?

Follow the maintenance intervals specified in the operator's manual, typically every 500 operating hours for routine checks.

Can I continue to drive if the hydraulic warning light is on?

Avoid using the lifting functions and have the hydraulic system inspected as soon as possible to prevent further damage.

What does the fasten seat belt light mean if I am already buckled?

Inspect the seatbelt sensor for dirt or damage, and ensure the buckle clicks securely; if the issue remains, request service.
