Abstract: An engine control device for an industrial vehicle includes a seating detector configured to detect a seating state of a driver relative to a driver seat, a neutral detector configured to detect whether a direction operating member of the industrial vehicle is positioned in a neutral position, a fuel supply member configured to supply a fuel to the engine, a first controller configured to stop an output of a driving force from the engine when the seating detector detects that the driver is away from the driver seat, and a second controller configured to restart the output of the driving force from the engine in case that the seating detector detects that the driver is seated on the driver seat and the neutral detector detects that the direction operating member is positioned in the neutral position, after the first controller stops the output of the driving force from the engine.

Abstract: An apparatus for controlling a load handling device of an industrial vehicle is provided. The load handling device includes a mast assembly and a load handling attachment attached to the mast assembly. The apparatus includes a tilt angle detector that detects a tilt angle of the mast assembly, a controller that regulates a lifting speed of the load handling attachment, and a determination device that determines whether or not the load handling attachment is being lifted off the ground. When the determination device determines that the load handling attachment is being lifted off the ground, the controller permits the load handling attachment to be lifted at a speed faster than the regulated lifting speed.
