Floor-Spot (o)
8.13.1 Description of the Floor-Spot
The Floor-Spot serves as a visual aid and provides greater safety in the warehouse.
When the load handler is lowered, the Floor-Spot projects a red or blue spot on the
ground at a distance of approx. 5 m in front of or behind the industrial truck.
The position of the projected spot is preset in the factory.
In poor visibility people are forewarned of the approaching truck. This avoids
accidents when exiting the narrow aisle, at interchanges and other warehouse areas
with restricted visibility.
CAUTION!
Risk of accident due to restricted view
Looking directly at the LED light can dazzle and temporarily impair eyesight.
u
Do not look directly at the LED light.
u
Practise travelling and working with the floor spot carefully.
u
Do not change the factory setting.
NOTICE
Obscured Floor-Spot
When the truck is travelling in the load direction with a load, the load can obscure the
light beam of the Floor-Spot.
