Reflective Warning Triangle

Avoid lowering the tailboard fully on the public highway. The tailboard is
equipped with straps retaining the tailboard at 90 degrees to ensure the rear
lamps are visible by approaching traffic from the rear.
A Reflective Warning Triangle is supplied for use when fully lowering the
tailboard is unavoidable. The Triangle must be deployed in both Day and Night
time conditions, warning approaching drivers of a stationary vehicle with the
rear lamps obscured. Always limit the time the tailboard is fully lowered to the
minimum.
Ensure the vehicle sidelights are switched on and use the hazard warning
lights, follow the Highway Code.
Return the Triangle to its protective cover and stow in its dedicated receptacle
adjacent to the drivers seat. Ensure the locking strap is securely applied.
Check the Triangle is present before operating the vehicle.
Warning Triangle located next to Drivers seat.
