Turntable, general advice

Volvo use turntables from several different
manufacturers. An instruction for the turntable is
attached to the turntable handle when the truck is
supplied from the factory. If the instructions are
missing, contact your Volvo dealer who can help you
get hold of a new instruction. Follow the general
advice in this instruction until you receive the
instructions from the supplier.

Caution!
Avoid holding a hand on the
upper edge of the retainer (under
the winch) as there is a risk of
fingers being trapped by the
lever.
Note!
Only use the general instructions
until you receive the instructions
from the supplier.
