8.10 Double-deck loading
WARNING
Risk of accident caused by incorrect
load securing and weight distribution!
When it comes to double-deck loading
and unloading, incorrect load securing and
uneven weight distribution can result in
personal injury and material damage.
► Keep the centre of gravity of the load
as low as possible.
► Position the longitudinal and trans-
verse beams straight so that they are
not at a slope.
► Place the heaviest load on the load
compartment floor, and the lighter
freight on the transverse beams.
► Observe the maximum working load
limit of the longitudinal beams, the
transverse beams, and the posts.
Consult the manufacturer's specifica-
tions for the working load limit of the
transverse beams.
► For double-deck loading, secure the
load items against sliding by installing
the transverse beams at different
levels.
For double-deck loading, the weight of the
load may not exceed 400kg per pallet.

Securing the load
► Insert the longitudinal beams (see
"6.2.11.2 Inserting and removing the longit-
udinal beams", pg.102).
► Insert the transverse beams (see
"6.2.11.3 Inserting and removing the trans-
verse beams", pg.103).
► Load the trailer with positive locking
(see "8.3 Ensuring form-fitting", pg.136)
from the front wall to the rear and the
side. Only load the second level when
the lower level is fully loaded.
► Laterally secure the load with plug-in
laths (see "6.2.11.4 Moving the lath sock-
ets for plug-in laths", pg.104).
► Hook the end beams onto the rear-
ward load securing.
