Driver Cab - Ford Cargo 2017 Owner's Manual

Tilting The Cab:
If you do not take the necessary precautions
and pay necessary attention to the cab lifting
procedures, this may cause fatal accidents.
Before tilting the cab:
• Ensure that no one is standing in front of the
vehicle.
• Ensure that adequate space is available in
front of the vehicle.
• Ensure that no freely moving objects are
available in the vehicle. Hard objects may
break the windshield when they fall while the
cab is being tilted.
MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
CAUTION
Do not work under the cab before tilting it
completely. This brings a fatal accident risk.
CAUTION
Do not tilt the cab uphill. As the gradient of
the slope acts to move the cab in the closing
direction, this may cause risk for the person
under the cab. Always tilt the cab on a level
surface. If the conditions require that the cab
is tilted on a slope, place a safety element
between the cab and chassis.
WARNING
Doors are heavy components; if the doors are
opened while the cab is tilted, abrupt opening
of the doors may cause serious injuries. If the
door should be opened, it shall be opened by
supporting from the lower side and slowly.
Always open the hood before tilting the cab.
