DANGER
When working on the lift mast, there is a risk of
becoming trapped and/or the lift mast accidentally
lowering.

must be performed on the lift mast or at the front
of the forklift truck without observing the following
safety measures! These safety precautions are
sufficient only for general maintenance on the truck
(inspection and greasing). For repairs (e.g. chan-
ging chains, dismantling lift cylinders), additional
safety precautions must be taken. Contact your
authorised dealer.
