Seat Belt

WARNING!
Travelling without a seat belt increases the risk of injury.
Accidents or personal injury can result if the seat belt is not worn or is modified.
Always put the seat belt on before starting the industrial truck.
Do not modify the seat belt.
Damaged or non-operational seat belts must be replaced by trained personnel.
Seat belts must always be replaced after an accident.
Only original spare parts must be used for retrofits or repairs.
Report any defects immediately to your supervisor.
Remove the truck from service until a functional seat belt has been fitted.
Z
Protect the seat belt from contamination (e.g. cover it when the truck is idle) and
clean it regularly. Frozen belt locks or pulleys must be thawed out and dried to
prevent them from freezing up again.
The temperature of the warm air should not exceed +60 °C!
Starting the industrial truck on steep slopes
The automatic blocking system locks the belt in the retractor when the truck is
positioned on a steep slope. This prevents the belt from being pulled out of the
retractor.
Z
Carefully drive the truck off the slope and then put on the belt.
Checking the seat belt
Procedure
• Check the attachment points for wear and damage.
• Check the cover for damage.
• Pull the belt out fully from the retractor and check for damage (loose seams, fraying
and nicks).
• Test the belt buckle and make sure the belt returns correctly into the retractor.
Check the automatic locking system
Procedure
• Park the truck on a level surface.
• Jerk the seat belt out suddenly.
Z
The locking system should prevent the belt from coming out.
The seat belt has now been checked.
