To ensure safe conditions to the operators and the

perform a walk-around inspection before starting
the engine.
•
Remove any dirt or rubbish from the cab interior,
and especially from pedals and control levers.
•
Remove oil, grease and mud from pedals and
control levers.
•
Make sure that your hands and shoe soles are clean
and dry.
•
Check the seat belts can be fastened properly.
•
Check that lights, indicators, side/tail lights, hazard
indicator lights, wipers and horn are in working
order.

Adjust the driving seat so that you can reach all
control levers comfortably and fully depress the
brake pedal without moving your back from the
driving seat.

Adjust the rear view mirrors to give you a good
view close behind the machine when you are
correctly seated.
•
Check the parking brake is engaged.
■ C-4.1.1 Checks at the machine start-up
When power is turned on, the load limiting system
activates automatically. If the power supplied is correct,
the green light above the Terex logo comes on. The
display remains off while the system runs a self-test.
After that, the display shows 1 or 0 depending on the
attachment selected (1 = platform; 0 = forks or any
other attachment).
If during the check phase, the load limiting system finds
a fault, it enters the safety mode automatically blocking
any dangerous manoeuvres and an error message
starts flashing on the display. For any further
information, refer to
chap.
Also check the efficiency of the safety devices as
described in
