- CAUTION -
The standard lighting on the telehandler is not suitable for
use in environments where there is scant visibility or at night.
There are various options available to improve visibility in
poor light conditions. Please contact your DIECI dealer.
- IT IS FORBIDDEN to lift or handle loads over the rated ca-
pacity of the machine or attachment.
- CAUTION -
BEFORE RAISING A LOAD IT IS COMPULSORY TO
KNOW THE WEIGHT OF THE LOAD AND ITS CENTRE
OF GRAVITY.
- The load diagrams are valid for centres of gravity at 500
mm from the heel of the forks. For centres of gravity at
greater distances, contact your dealer.
- Take the UTMOST CARE when handling loads with a
variable centre of gravity (e.g. liquids). Operate with
particular care to limit any variations as far as possible;
danger of rolling the machine over.
- BEWARE of the risk of crushing your limbs while ma-
nually adjusting the forks.
HANDLING LOADS
- CAUTION -
Always comply with safety regulations; always carry ba-
lanced and correctly positioned loads to avoid any risk
of overturning.
- Always insert the forks completely under the load and
raise to the handling position (forks 300 mm off the
ground and tilted backwards, boom completely retracted).
- Always ensure pallets, boxes, etc. are in good condition
and suitable for the load to be raised.
- Only manoeuvre the machine while the boom is raised
in exceptional cases. In such cases, operate with the ut-
most prudence, moderate your speed as much as possi-
ble and brake gently. Ensure you always have sufcient
visibility and use a person on the ground to guide you
during operations.
- During handling operations limit your speed as much as
possible and brake gently.
- Do not manoeuvre the load while the machine is moving.
- CAUTION -
Loads can only be handled when in "I" creep speed gear.
- Before turning, moderate your speed as much as possi-
ble and keep an eye on the load.
- Handle loads with care, drive slowly without making any
abrupt or jolted manoeuvres, especially if the loads are
raised at great heights.
- Do not change direction abruptly at high speed.
- CAUTION -
IF THE MACHINE ROLLS OVER, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO
GET OUT DURING THE ACCIDENT. ALWAYS FASTEN
YOUR SEATBELTS WHILE DRIVING THE MACHINE.
YOU ARE BEST PROTECTED WHEN YOU ARE INSIDE
THE CAB WITH THE SEATBELT FASTENED.
- Always use the parking brake to put down or raise a load
on a slope.
- Always ensure you have a clear view of the work area
(both directly and through the rear-view mirrors) to check
for any bystanders, animals, obstacles, holes, changes
in gradient, etc.
- Visibility is reduced on the right while the boom is being
manoeuvred, therefore before lifting anything, ensure
the work area is clear, take note of the position of any
possible obstacles and irregularities on the ground.
- If visibility is compromised by the overall dimensions of
the circular load while reversing, only carry out this type
of manoeuvre in exceptional circumstances and over
short distances and on condition there is a man on the
ground able to monitor manoeuvres.
- Always ensure visibility is good (clean windows, rear-view
mirrors, headlamps clean and functioning properly, etc.)
