Safety 2
Residual risks
WARNING
In trucks with an accumulator, serious injuries can
occur if the accumulator is not properly handled.
Before starting work on the accumulator it must be
depressurised.
Contact your authorised dealer.
WARNING
Depending on the duration of use and
operating time, components carrying
exhaust gases and exhaust air may
become hot.
Protective equipment must therefore
be worn.
WARNING
Thetruckworkingareamustbesufficientlylit.
If it is insufficiently lit, working spotlights must be
installed to ensure that the driver can see properly.
CAUTION
Various pieces of special equipment are connected
to the special "speed reduction" function. This is
simply an assistance function, on which the driver
must not solely rely during operation.
The driver is always responsible for safe operation.
CAUTION
If drivers have active medical equipment, e. g. pace
makers or hearing aids, these may be impaired.
Check with a doctor or the medical equipment
manufacturer whether the equipment is sufficiently
protected against electromagnetic interference.
NOTE
If your truck is equipped with a fire extinguis-
her, make sure that you familiarise yourself
with it in case of an emergency. Handling in-
formation is provided on the fire extinguisher.
Residual risks
Despite careful work and compliance with
all applicable standards and regulations, the
possibility of other dangers when using the
industrial truck cannot be entirely excluded.
The industrial truck and its possible attach-
ments comply with current safety regulations.
Nevertheless, even when the truck is used for
its proper purpose and all instructions are fol-
lowed, some residual risk cannot be excluded.
Even beyond the narrow danger areas of the
industrial truck itself, a residual risk cannot
be excluded. Persons in the area around the
industrial truck must exercise a heightened
degree of awareness, so that they can react
immediately in the event of any malfunction,
incident or breakdown.
DANGER
Persons in the vicinity of the industrial truck must
be instructed with regard to the dangers that arise
through use of the truck.
These operating instructions also contain additional
safety regulations.
Residual dangers can include:
• Escape of consumables due to leakages or
the rupture of lines, hoses or containers,
• Risk of accident when driving over difficult
ground such as gradients, smooth or
irregular surfaces, or with poor visibility,
• Risk of falling, tripping, slipping etc. during
movement of the industrial truck, especially
in the wet, with leaking consumables or on
icy surfaces,
• Risk of fire and explosion due to the battery
and electrical voltages,
• Human error,
• Disregarding the safety regulations,
• Risk caused by unrepaired damage,
