Foreword Information about the documentation with either a hydraulic power unit or an air compressor. "Self-sufficient" chassis When using a "self-sufficient" chassis, neither a hydraulic unit nor an air compressor is required. These chassis can raise and lower their load without the need for a hydraulic or pneumatic supply.
Foreword Environmental considerations Tugger train The unit consisting of the frames and a tow tractor is known as the "tugger train". Environmental considerations Packaging When the chassis are delivered, certain parts are packaged to provide protection during transportation. This packaging must be removed completely prior to commissioning.
Introduction Use of the tugger train Use of the tugger train Intended use The frames are intended solely for the follo- wing purpose: • Picking up and transporting Trolleys loaded with equipment in order to transport them to a workplace and exchange them for empty Trolleys.
Introduction Use of the tugger train corrosion, or in areas that are particularly dusty. • A chassis must not be loaded or unloaded on slopes or ramps. • Transportation of people is prohibited Requirements for the tow tractor General requirements for the tow tractor The tow tractor must have a steered front axle.
Introduction Residual risk Pneumatic E frame • Depending on the design of the E frames, the tow tractor must have a compressor of the corresponding size: - For frames with a 600 kg load capacity: 7 bar working pressure - For frames with a 1000 kg load capacity: 10 bar working pressure Residual risk Residual risk...
Page 19
Introduction Residual risk must determine and assess hazards during operation, and establish the occupational health and safety measures required for employees. The operating company must therefore draw up appropriate operating procedures (§ 6 ArbSchG) and make them available to the driver. These operating instructions for the frames do not form the operating procedures.
Safety Definition of terms used for responsible persons Definition of terms used for responsible persons Personnel All operators must: – Have read and understood these operating instructions. – Have completed the appropriate operator training – Observe the basic regulations governing safety at work and accident prevention.
Safety Basic principles for safe operation Specialist A qualified person is defined as a service engineer or a person who fulfils the following requirements: • A completed vocational qualification that demonstrably proves their professional expertise. This proof should consist of a vocational qualification or a similar document.
Safety Basic principles for safe operation CAUTION Installation and/or use of non-original parts may therefore have a negative impact on the design features of the chassis and thus impair active and/or passive driving safety. Before installing such parts, we recommend that approval is obtained from the manufacturer.

Overviews Description Autarkic E frame The autarkic E frame is a device for picking up and transporting roller platforms, known as trolleys. Two or four E frames are connected to a tow tractor. These E frames can transport trolleys loaded with crates, pallets or similar to the desired workplace.
Overviews Description NOTE If trains with four autarkic E frames are used, a compensating hinge must be fitted between the second E frame and the third E frame. The autarkic frames are lowered individually for unloading. If the tugger train drives over a chamfer, it may result in not all frames being raised;...
Overviews Description C frame The C frame is a device for picking up and transporting roller platforms, known as trol- leys.
