From cab controls and the MMI interface through load charts, daily maintenance and the attachment range, this 142-page Manitou MLT 840-115 PS and 840-137 PS operator manual PDF (OEM ID 647269 US) walks both telescopic lift trucks end to end. Load charts built to ANSI/ITSDF standards sit beside full machine dimensions, so you can check rated capacity at a given reach before the boom goes up. Maintenance fills the largest share of the book: lubricant and fuel levels, hydraulic and electrical checks, placing the jib safety wedge, welding, washing and transport, then attachment pickup and specifications to close. Fill the engine with 13 litres of oil and the cooling circuit with 23 litres, then torque the wheel nuts to 630 N.m ± 15 %. A particle filter regeneration prompt mid-shift is a bad time to hunt for the right switch. Bookmarked, searchable pages find it fast; your truck keeps lifting.

Manitou MLT 840-115 PS, MLT 840-137 PS Common Problems This Manual Covers
Manitou MLT 840-115 PS and 840-137 PS engine oil level low at daily pre-start check
Check the engine oil level with the engine stopped, following the service procedure on page 110. Top up with MANITOU oil; total engine capacity is 13 Litres on page 98. If the level keeps dropping between checks, replace the oil filter and inspect the crankcase ventilation using page 111.
Manual Section: Engine Troubleshooting p. 110Fuel pre-filter and fuel filter overdue for replacement at the scheduled engine maintenance interval
Check the maintenance schedule on page 100 for the fuel filter interval, then replace the fuel pre-filter and fuel filter following the engine service procedures on page 111. Keep the 143 Litres tank filled with clean fuel, listed on page 98, so contamination does not reach the new filters.
Manual Section: Engine Troubleshooting p. 111Hydraulic oil level low in the tank, return oil filter and suction strainer suspected of contamination
Check the hydraulic oil level and top up the tank, which holds 175 Litres per page 98. Replace the return oil filter, service the breather and inspect the suction strainer as laid out in the Hydraulic System Troubleshooting section. If you find contamination, follow the circuit decontamination procedure before running the boom again.
Manual Section: Hydraulic System TroubleshootingGear box oil level reading low during scheduled transmission maintenance with filter change due
Check the gear box oil level and top up with the specified oil; the gear box holds 23 Litres per page 98. Replace the gear box oil filter at the interval given in the maintenance schedule on page 101. Recheck the level after the filter change before putting the machine back to work.
Manual Section: Transmission TroubleshootingRadiator core clogged with debris and cooling liquid due for scheduled drain and refill
Clean the radiator core with the engine stopped and cold. At the interval listed in the maintenance schedule on page 100, drain the cooling liquid and refill the circuit, which holds 23 Litres per page 98. Recheck the level after the first warm-up run and top up if it drops.
Manual Section: Cooling System TroubleshootingBattery failure when turning the ignition switch, with a replacement battery needed for the machine
Test the battery and confirm its rating matches the 12 V - 180 Ah - 1000 A EN listed on page 42. Replace a failed battery with one of the same rating, following the battery replacement steps in the Electrical System Troubleshooting section. Check the fuses and relays on page 68 if the fault remains after fitting.
