Braking
• Brake by pressing the button.
• The brakes are applied in two stages, first gentle braking and
then after a set delay full braking.
An emergency stop can be performed on the truck by removing
your left foot from the foot pedal. This give full braking force with
-
out delay.
WARNING!
Risk of being thrown from the truck.
The parking brake is actuated if you left foot is removed from
the foot pedal while driving.
Only move your left foot from the foot pedal if you intend to
stop the truck in an emergency.
Deceleration can take place using the electric drive motor. This
is done by actuating the travel direction selector in the opposite
travel direction. Deceleration is controlled by moving the travel
control forwards.
Steering
The steering impulses are transmitted to an electric steering
motor mounted in the motor compartment. The steering motor
moves the steered drive wheel by means of a chain drive.
• When small steering wheel adjustments are required and
when driving at high speed, steer the truck with the finger-tips
on the steering wheel hub. For low speed driving and turning
the truck, rotate the wheel faster with the help of the steering
wheel spinner.
The control characteristics can be adapted to suit the experience
and requirements of the driver. Control sensitivity can be
increased or reduced as required. Contact authorised service
technicians.
WARNING!
Lost stability.
The truck can overturn and the load fall if you turn the steering
quickly at high speed. Only steer with the finger tips on the
steering hub when driving at high speed.
• If the truck gets caught against an obstacle, do not use more
force to steer than used when steering the truck under normal
conditions. If this is the case, try to come free by carefully
driving forwards and backwards while carefully moving the
steering wheel/tiller arm.
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.
