Be particularly careful near slopes:
Never attempt a slope with a gradient
greater than that specied in the truck’s
data sheet. Make sure that the ground
is dry with a non-slip surface and that
the route is clear.
Ascending slopes
Always ascend slopes travelling in the
forward direction, with the load facing
uphill. Without a load, it is recommend
to ascend slopes forwards.
Descending slopes
Travel down slopes must always be
backwards, with the load uphill. Without
a load, it is recommended to descend
slopes backwards. In all cases, travel
at a very low speed and brake very
gradually.
1.3.9 Using the truck on a slope
Incorrect use of the truck on slopes
places stress on the traction motor,
brakes and battery.
Risk to life and/or risk of major
equipment damage.
Never park the truck on a slope.
Never make a U-turn or take shortcuts
on a slope. On a slope, the operator
must drive very slowly.
Starting on a slope
If you have to stop and then start on
slope, proceed as follows:
•
Stop on the slope by pressing the
accelerator in the opposite direction
until the machine comes to a standstill.
•
Return the accelerator to the neutral
position, then release the accelerator
control button to apply the parking
brake.
•
To restart, press the accelerator button
for the desired direction.
•
The truck will move.
