Braking
Reducing the speed ought to/should take place by using the
drive motor, through turning the travel direction selector in the
opposite travel direction. Speed reduction is regulated by means
of an accelerator.
• Emergency brake by moving the steering unit to the raised
position.
Deceleration
The speed of the truck can also be reduced by means of the
electric drive motor by turning the travel direction selector to the
opposite travel direction. Control the braking force by the posi
-
tion of the speed control.
The truck is equipped with so called automatic speed reduction,
which means that the speed is automatically reduced as soon as
the speed control is released and returns to the neutral position.
Steering
• Steer by using the steering unit.
• If the truck gets caught against an obstacle, do not use more
force to steer than used when steering the truck under normal
conditions. Try to free yourself by carefully driving forwards
and backwards at the same time as you turn the steering unit.
WARNING!
Risk of slipping.
You can lose control of the truck if your hands or shoes are
oily.
Always dry your hands and shoes before driving.
Parking the truck
• Stop the truck and disengage the travel direction selector.
• Raise the steering unit; the parking brake is activated and the
brakes are applied.
• Lower the forks fully to the floor.
• Turn off the truck.
WARNING!
Unauthorised use.
Accidents can happen.
Always remove the ignition key when the truck is left unat-
tended.
