an operator compartment designed
for comfort and productivity.
System Control with AC
Traction
This system provides unmatched
truck control and system perfor-
mance in:
The compartment features
rounded edges, a large operator
platform to allow quick entry/exit
onto the truck and a choice of
handle options. Dual twist grips
with soft urethane covering and
cams improve operator comfort.
Full width raise, lower and horn
buttons are employed for easy
actuation.
* Traction control
* Operator interface
* Diagnostics
Clearly labeling each component
and providing an area map
showing component locations
helps to minimize downtime.
A Quick Reference Trouble-
shooting Guide is supplied with
each truck showing display
operation, code definitions,
and overall component ID of
the entire truck.
21. 175 amp battery connector
22. Key switch

Crown technology provides
a closed-loop traction control
system which maintains speed
throughout the battery charge
and provides optimum accelera-
tion and speed as the load on
the forks increases.
Optional Equipment
1. “T”-type control handle
includes urethane covered
twist grips with cams, full
width raise, lower and horn
buttons with automatic park
brake
2. Molded urethane leg cushion

module on load backrest
In low level order picking applica-
tions, where walking through the
compartment is common, the
larger compartment, low profile
high speed pedal, rounded edges
and optional load backrest widths
and heights improve order picking
efficiency. Preset lift height pro-
vides operators with a consistent
platform step height and is ad-
justable to individual operator
preference for improved comfort
and productivity.
Access controller has full-time
management control of traction
and other system inputs and
outputs. Access 123 technology
simplifies the system by reducing

tors, relays and other hard-wired
components. The Access 123

Hydraulics
Extended-tip fork design has
totally enclosed tip, with full length
convex bottom surface creating
an entry ramp. Ramp design
helps fork glide over bottom
boards of pallet and keeps welded
edges from touching bottom
boards of pallet.
e-GEN Braking System
Heavy-duty pump, motor, reservoir
and control are assembled into
one unit. A centrally located lift
cylinder, mounted vertically,
is equipped with long-life
Variable regenerative motor
braking is optimized and virtually
eliminates brake maintenance.
Other Options
1. Audible travel alarm
2. Flashing lights
While moving, e-GEN braking is
applied if the operator moves the
standard handle into the brake
zone, activates brake levers on
“T” handle, removes travel input
request or reverses direction.
Safety considerations and dangers
associated with audible travel
alarms and flashing lights include:
polyurethane packings. A
pressure compensating flow
control valve is an integral part
of the valve block and regulates
lowering speed. Overload valve
protects hydraulic components.
Abrasion resistant steel entry/exit
slides on both sides of each fork
have convex bottom surfaces to
prevent snagging as forks move
over bottom boards of pallet.
One-piece design with radiused
edges are welded away from
contact point of slide.
• Multiple alarms and/or lights
can cause confusion.
• Workers ignore the alarms
and/or lights after day-in and
day-out exposure.
The closed loop Access 123
traction control will keep the
truck static until a travel input is
requested, even when operating
on a grade.
Drive Unit
All gear drive from drive motor to
drive wheel axle. Crown-manu-
factured gears are hard finished
and dual machined for high quality.
Drive tire axle is mounted in the
drive unit on both sides for maxi-
mum strength in rough floor or
docking applications. Drive unit is
top and bottom mounted. Top
mount is a large, tapered roller
bearing for vertical or horizontal
forces. Bottom mount has four
shock mounted rollers on drive
unit running in a hardened steel
roller race. Gear train runs in oil-
filled, sealed housing.
• Operator may transfer the
responsibility for “looking out”
to the pedestrians.
Automatic electric parking brake
activates when the truck has
been stationary for four seconds,
the truck is keyed off or the bat-
tery has been disconnected.
Exit roller design prevents load
wheel from dropping after cross-
ing bottom board. The 4" wide,
steel exit roller is positioned di-
rectly behind the load wheel
to keep the fork rolling. The
• Annoys operators and
pedestrians.
Dimensions and performance
data given may vary due to manu-
facturing tolerances. Performance
is based on an average size vehicle
and is affected by weight, condi-
tion of truck, how it is equipped
and the conditions of the operating

.
entry/exit slide design also assists
in trouble-free pallet entry/exit.
Pallet Planning Guide
On standard-tip fork models, the
load wheel will drop in the second
opening of the pallet when “A” or
“B” dimension equals the nominal
fork length. On extended-tip fork
models, the load wheel will drop
in the first opening of the second
pallet. On models with a single
load wheel, the “C” dimension
should be 6" maximum and the
“D” dimension should be 14" mini-
mum. On models with tandem
load wheels, the “C” dimension
should be 6" maximum and the
“D” dimension should be 17"
minimum. Customers that need
tandem load wheel trucks, but
use pallets with smaller openings,
may be accommodated if the
maximum lift height of the truck is
reduced. Contact your Crown
dealer for details.
Fork adjustment is done at the toe
with no need to remove a cover
plate. Fork heel height adjustment
is done quickly without removing
battery. Quick and easy fork
adjustment promotes servicing of
fork assembly to keep pallet
entry/exit productive.
Caster System
Standard on the PC 4500 Series
are the quick adjustment casters.
These casters adjust quickly to
enable braking, traction, steer

“balanced” based on your
specific application. This system
can also increase drive tire life by
as much as 60% by permitting
more tire wear. The optional
torsion bar suspension is avail-
able to maximize stability on tall,
unwieldy and less stable loads.
Power Unit Structure
Heavy gage steel is used in the
power unit structure and skirt.
Rugged steel power unit doors

be lifted off if desired. Door bolts
