    General Lectro-Truck Information (continued) Page 12 ALWAYS REFER TO THESE GENERAL SAFETY RULES: 1. When in doubt as to whether or not you are able to handle a load by yourself, always have someone else help. 2. Be sure that no one is in front of or below the Lectro-Truck during operation. The operator(s) should be safely behind or above the load at all times.
