Using The Truck On Inclines, Loading Bridges And Lifts; Towing Trailers - Still EXV 10 Basic Original Instructions Manual

Application

Using the truck on inclines, loading bridges and lifts.

Driving on inclines
When driving the truck up or down inclines,
you must not exceed the values for inclines
indicated in the chapter "Technical data".
The operator must check that the ground is
clear with a good grip.
WARNING
When driving up or down inclines, the speed of
travel must be reduced.
DANGER
Risk of tipping!
When driving up or down inclines, do not turn,
reverse and/or travel diagonally.
WARNING
When driving on an incline with a load, you must
keep the load facing upwards.
DANGER
Risk of accident
Keep the truck at a safe distance from the edges of
ramps, tailboards etc.
CAUTION
In certain cases, it is permitted to drive with the
forks pointing towards the top of the incline even if
the truck is not loaded.
In these cases, drive with the utmost care and avoid
turning until all the wheels are on a flat surface.
DANGER
Risk of accident
Do not park on an incline: if, in the event of an
emergency, you have to do so, apply the parking
brake and block the wheels with chocks.

Towing trailers

The forklift is not qualified to tow trailers.
Using the truck on a lift
Using the truck on lifts is only allowed if the
lift has sufficient load capacity (check the
maximum weight of the truck including the
traction battery) and only with appropriate
authorisation.
Slowly drive the truck onto the lift load-first.
Secure the truck in the lift so that no part
comes into contact with the walls of the lift.
A minimum distance of 100 mm from the walls
of the lift must always be observed.
WARNING
The truck must be correctly immobilised so that it
cannot move inadvertently.
CAUTION
Personnel accompanying the truck onto the lift may
only enter the lift once the truck is secure and must
exit the lift first after transit.
Using the truck on loading bridges
DANGER
Risk of accident
Before driving on to a loading bridge, the operator
must check that it has been properly fitted and
secured and has sufficient load capacity.
You must drive onto the loading bridge slowly and
carefully.
The operator must check that the vehicle to be
loaded or unloaded is sufficiently secure so that it
will not move and that it is suitable to support the
strain of the truck.
The lorry driver and the forklift truck operator must
agree on the time of departure of the lorry.
