Clark PWD25, PWD30, PWD36, HWD25, HWD30, HWD36, P-HWP25, P-HWP30 Forklift Operators Manual (OM-568)

These Clark PWD/HWD series forklifts are everyday workhorses in warehouses, loading docks, and tight yard spaces, moving pallets on and off trucks all shift long. This operator’s manual is what I keep handy to make sure the truck is started, run, and shut down the way Clark intended, so we don’t cook a drive motor or wreck a mast from bad habits. If, for example, an operator reports the truck won’t move after startup or the hydraulics feel weak, I use this book to verify the correct control positions, startup sequence, and daily checks before I start chasing a “fault” that’s really just misuse.

Applications & Use Cases

Train new operators on proper control use, travel direction changes, and safe shutdown.
Guide daily inspections of tires, forks, hydraulics, and warning devices before each shift.
Verify correct startup logic when the truck won’t move or behaves oddly after key-on.
Reinforce safe lifting practices to avoid tipping, bent masts, or damaged loads.
Standardize operating habits across different PWD/HWD models on the same site.

FAQ

Q: Can I keep this manual on a tablet or phone for use in the yard?

A: Yes, it’s well-suited for digital use, so you can zoom in on control diagrams and check procedures right at the truck.

Q: Is it worth printing parts of this manual?

A: Many shops print the daily inspection and startup pages and post them near the charging or parking area for quick reference.

Safety Note

Always follow the manual’s startup, inspection, and shutdown steps in order before lifting any load.
