- Safety precautions
2.2.5 - Mechanical attachment locking device
• Ensure that the machine is placed on a firm and level surface.
• Actuate the parking brake. Blocking the wheels is also recommended.
• Level the handler both sideways (chassis swaying) and lengthways (accessory tilt).
• Ensure that there is no-one under the accessory.
• Do not lift or transport anyone in the bucket or on the forks.
2.2.6 - Driving hazards on slopes
• Avoid excessively steep slopes or unstable surfaces. To avoid tipping over, do not drive across
excessively steep slopes under any circumstances.
• Avoid turning on a slope.
• Never engage INCHING or shift to NEUTRAL when travelling downhill.
Always ensure that the fork carriage or the attachment is correctly positioned on the boom and is secured
by a lock pin and a retainer pin. Incorrect installation could result in the fork carriage/attachment/load
disengaging, causing death or serious injury.
To maintain sufficient traction and braking capabilities,
travel on slopes as follows :
• When the machine is unloaded, the rear of the machine is
the heavy end. Drive with the forks pointed downhill.
• When it is loaded, the front of the machine is the heavy end.
Drive with the forks pointed uphill.
• To avoid the machine racing on slopes, downshift to a lower
gear and use the service brake as necessary to maintain a
slow speed.
Do not shift to neutral to avoid coasting downhill.
Do not park on a slope without having blocked the machine wheels.
