C3M2-OM-EN-02
Warning
Never use the truck without the cabin properly installed.
Do NOT drill, weld, straighten or bend the cabin overhead guard.
Allow only trained authorised personnel to install a new cabin.
Caution
The safety devices are installed to protect the life of the operator and those
working in the vicinity of the truck. Do not remove or bypass any of the
safety devices.
Combilift will not assume liability for injuries or damages arising from or
caused by the removal or bypassing of any of the trucks safety devices.
Note
After turning the ignition key switch to the off ‘0’ position to stop the engine,
the engine control unit (ECU) remains active to save system data before it
switches off. For this reason, the power supply to the engine must not be
interrupted at the battery isolator switch or by removing the battery leads
until the ECU has switched off.
1.4 Safety Equipment
Safety equipment is provided to protect the operator from potential danger while
using the truck. The safety equipment must be checked frequently as part of the pre-
use inspection and maintained in good working condition at all times.
Cabin Overhead Guard
The cabin overhead guard is not designed for roll over protection. It is only intended
to offer protection from the impact of falling objects.
DO NOT operate the truck if the cabin overhead guard is damaged, corroded or has
been modified in any way.
Battery Isolator Key Switch
The battery isolator key switch allows the battery to be disconnected from the
electrical system.
Seat Belt
The purpose of the seat belt is to retain the operator in the seat and so prevent or
reduce injuries suffered in a crash. The seat belt ensures that as little contact is
made between the operator and cabin as possible. It also significantly reduces the
risk of being thrown from the cabin.
Park Brake
The park brake prevents inadvertent movement of the truck when it is parked or
stopped.
