Transporting loads
The weight of the load should be within the truck’s permitted lift-
ing capacity. See the truck’s identification plate.
WARNING!
Risk of overturning.
The lifting capacity is reduced if additional equipment is
attached to the truck.
Always check the truck’s overall lifting capacity.
• Only handle loads that are stable and arranged safely. Take
particular care when handling high and long loads.
WARNING!
Lost stability.
High loads can fall when cornering at high speed.
Drive slowly and carefully when cornering.
WARNING!
Protruding loads.
The load can collide with personnel, fixed or moving objects.
A truck with a protruding load requires more room when cor-
nering.
• Drive the truck with the load trailing, when the load impairs
the line of vision.
• If necessary, when the operator’s vision is impaired, ask
someone to direct operations so that transportation can take
place without the risk of causing personal injury or material
damage.
Order picking
• Always wear safety shoes when picking orders.
• Never stand with your feet under the forks or platform.
WARNING!
Risk of crushing under the forks/platform.
There is a risk of injury due to crushing with unintentional low-
ering of the forks or a fault with the hydraulic system.
Never stand with your feet under the forks/platform.
• Ensure the load is secured on a pallet.
