Operation
Driver's compartment
Seat belt
Fastening the seat belt
DANGER
There is a risk to life if the driver leaves
the vehicle in an uncontrolled manner.
For this reason, the seat belt must
always be worn when operating the
truck!
The seat belt should only be worn by
one person.
WARNING
The seat belt must function perfectly.
For this reason, the belt should not become twisted,
trapped or tangled.
The belt buckle and belt retractor should be protec-
ted from foreign bodies, damage and dirt.
NOTE
Driver's cabs with fixed closed doors or
bracket doors meet the safety requirements
for driver restraint systems. The seat belt can
also be used. It must, however, be fastened
when driving with doors that are open or have
been removed, or if there aren't any doors.
PVC doors are not deemed to constitute driver
restraint systems.
The automatic blocking mechanism prevents
the seat belt from being extended whenever
the industrial truck is on a steep slope. It is
then not possible to pull the belt any further out
of the retractor.
To release the automatic blocking mecha-
nism, carefully move the industrial truck so
that it is no longer positioned on a slope.
While using the truck (e.g. driving, operating
the lift mast etc.), the driver should adopt a
seat position as far back as possible so that
his or her back rests against the seat backrest.
The automatic blocking mechanism of the
belt retractor offers sufficient freedom of
movement on the seat for normal use of the
truck.
