DANGER
There is a risk to life if the driver leaves the vehicle
in an uncontrolled manner.
For this reason the seat belt must always be worn
when operating the vehicle ! The seat belt should
only be worn by one person.
WARNING
Perfect functioning of the seat belt must be ensu-
red.
For this reason the belt should not become twis-
ted, trapped or tangled up. The catch lock and belt
retractor should be protected from foreign bodies,
damage and soiling.
NOTE
Driver cabins with fixed closed doors or
bracket doors satisfy the safety requirements
for driver restraint systems. The seat belt
can be used in addition. It must however be
affixed when driving with doors that have
been opened or removed. PVC doors are not
deemed to constitute driver restraint systems.
Belt extraction is blocked by the automatic
blocking mechanism whenever the industrial
truck is at a great angle . It is then not possible
to pull the belt any further out of the retractor.
To release the automatic blocking mechanism
carefully move the industrial truck so that it is
no longer positioned at an angle .
While using the vehicle (e.g. driving, operat-
ing lift mast etc.), a sitting position as far as
possible to the rear should be adopted so that
the driver's back is against the seat back. The
automatic blocking mechanism of the belt re-
tractor offers sufficient freedom of movement
on the seat with normal use of the forklift truck.
