The "Rules for proper use of industrial trucks"
supplied with these operating instructions
must be brought to the attention of the per-
sons in charge, in particular to those persons
concerned with operating and maintaining the

driver understands all the safety information.

lines, e.g.:

●
tion

been trained to the BGV D 27 standard, the
following must be practised sufficiently by
training, driving, switching and steering, so

Safety information
DANGER
The truck must not be used by unauthorised per-
sons.
As the operating company, you must ensure that ac-
cess to the truck is only possible for authorised per-
sonnel.
DANGER
Safety systems are there for your safety.
Safety systems - of any kind - must never be disa-
bled.
DANGER
Loads should be arranged so that they do not
project beyond the edge of the truck loading sur-
face and cannot slip, topple over or fall off.
If necessary, use a load backrest (special equip-
ment).
DANGER
When retrofitting a third auxiliary hydraulic system,
using solutions other than those recommended by
the truck manufacturer will render the relevant con-
formity null and void, and is therefore expressly
prohibited.
Trucks may only be retrofitted with a third auxiliary
hydraulic system with the approval of the truck man-
ufacturer.
CAUTION
Welding operations on other parts of the truck can
cause damage to the electronics.
Therefore, always disconnect the battery and all con-
nections to the electronic controls beforehand.
