 Make sure that the telescopic handler is stopped
where it will not interfere with the traffic flow and
is at least 3 feet (1 meter) away from any railroad
tracks.
 Park the telescopic handler on flat ground, or
across an incline of less than 15 % with the wheels
blocked.
 Place the forward/reverse lever in neutral.
 Apply the parking brake.
 Entirely retract the boom.
 Lower the forks or attachment to rest on the
ground.
 When using an attachment with a grab or jaws, or
a bucket with hydraulic opening, close the attach-
ment fully.
 Before stopping the telescopic handler after a long
working period, let the engine idle for a few min-
utes, to allow the coolant and oil to lower the tem-
perature of the engine and transmission. Do not
neglect this precaution in the event of frequent
stops or stalling of the engine, or else the tempera-
ture of certain parts will rise significantly due to
the stopping of the cooling system, with the risk of
badly damaging such parts.
 Stop the engine with the ignition switch.
 Remove the ignition key.
 Make sure all means of access to the telescopic
handler are closed and locked (doors, windows,
engine cover…).
 In the event of prolonged parking on a site, protect
the telescopic handler from bad weather, particu-
larly from freezing (check the level of antifreeze).
H - DRIVING THE TELESCOPIC HAN-
DLER ON A PUBLIC HIGHWAY
 Operators driving on a public highway must com-
ply with highway regulations.
 The telescopic handler must also comply with
highway regulations. If necessary, contact your
dealer.
 If equipped, make sure the rotating beacon is in
place. Switch it on and verify its operation.
 Check for good working order and cleanliness of
lights, indicators and windshield wipers.
 Switch off the working lights if the telescopic han-
dler is so equipped.
 Select the steering mode for "HIGHWAY TRAF-
FIC" (see chapter: 5 - INSTRUMENTS AND
CONTROLS: 18 - STEERING MODE SELEC-
TOR).
 Entirely retract the boom and position the attach-
ment approximately 1 foot (300 mm) from the
ground.
I - DRIVING THE TELESCOPIC HAN-
DLER WITH A FRONT-MOUNTED
ATTACHMENT
 You must comply with regulations in your
state/province.
• The attachment must not be loaded.
• Make sure that the attachment does not block
the forward lights.
J - OPERATING THE TELESCOPIC
HANDLER WITH A TRAILER
 For using a trailer, observe the regulations in force
in your state/province (maximum travel speed,
braking, maximum weight of trailer, etc.).
 Do not forget to connect the trailer’s electrical
equipment to that of the telescopic handler if
equipped.
 The trailer's braking system must comply with reg-
ulations.
 When pulling a trailer with brakes, the telescopic
handler must be equipped with a trailer brake con-
trol. In this case, remember to connect the trailer
brake equipment to the telescopic handler.
 The maximum vertical load on the trailer hook
must not exceed 3372 lbs. (15.0 kN).
WARNING
Never coast in neutral (forward/reverse lever
in neutral or transmission cut-off button
pressed) to avoid the effects of engine brak-
ing. Failure to follow this warning on a slope
will lead to excessive speed, which may make
the telescopic handler uncontrollable (steer-
ing, brakes) and may cause an accident or
severe mechanical damage.
