4.3 Negotiating narrow aisles

It is forbidden for unauthorised personnel to enter narrow aisles (truck lanes in

racking systems with safety distances < 500 mm) or for personnel to cross through

them. These work areas must be marked and identified accordingly. Carry out a daily

inspection of the safety mechanisms on the truck or the racking sysem to avoid

hazards and protect personnel. These must not be rendered ineffective, misused,

adjusted or removed. Immediately report and rectify any faulty safety devices.

Observe the instructions of DIN 15185 Part 2.

Before entering a narrow aisle, the driver must look for people or other trucks in the

aisle. Never enter a narrow aisle where there are people or other trucks. If there are

people in the aisle, stop the truck immediately.

Only enter narrow aisles in trucks which are designated for this purpose If a narrow

aisle is equipped with a guidance wire for wire guidance and the system is faulty or

switched off, the truck may only be removed from the narrow aisle at crawl speed.
