SAFETY

11647852EN-USM1(B-12/2021)
WARNING
Your lift truck is designed for outdoor use under normal
atmospheric conditions and indoor use in suitably aerated
and ventilated premises.
It is forbidden to use the lift truck in areas where
there is a risk of fire or potential explosion (e.g.
Refineries, fuel or gas depots, stores of flammable
products, etc.).
Special equipment is available for use in such areas
(ask your dealer for information).
• Our trucks comply with Directive 2004/108/EC
concerning electromagnetic compatibility (EMC),
and with the corresponding harmonised standard
EN 12895. Their proper operation is no longer
guaranteed if they are used within areas in which
the electromagnetic fields exceed the limit specified
by that standard (10 V/m).
• Directive 2002/44/EC requires company managers
to not expose their employees to excessive
vibration doses. There is no recognised code of
measurement for comparing the machines of
different manufacturers. The actual doses received
cannot therefore be measured under actual
operating conditions at the user's premises.
• The following are some tips for minimizing these
vibration doses:
• Select the most suitable lift truck and attachment
for the intended use.
• Adapt the seat adjustment to the operator's
weight (according to lift truck model) and maintain
it in good condition, as well as the cab
suspension. Inflate the tyres in accordance with
recommendations.
• Ensure that the operators adapt their operating
speed to suit the conditions on site.
• As far as possible, arrange the site in such a way
as to provide a flat running surface and remove
obstacles and harmful potholes.
MODIFICATION OF THE LIFT TRUCK
• For your own safety and that of others, you must not
change the structure and settings of the various
components used in your lift truck by yourself
(hydraulic pressure, limiter calibration, engine
speed, addition of extra equipment, addition of
counterweights, unapproved attachments, alarm
systems, etc. In this event, the manufacturer cannot
be held liable.
FRENCH ROAD TRAFFIC RULES
• Only one certificate of conformity is issued. It must
be kept in a safe place.
• The driving of non-approved lift trucks on the public
highway is subject to the provisions of the highway
code relating to special machines, defined in article
R311-1 of the highway code, in category B of the
Equipment Order of 20 November 1969 that
determines the procedures applicable to special
machines. The lift truck must be fitted with a license
plate.
1.2.4 INSTRUCTIONS
• The operator's manual must always be in good
condition and kept in the place provided on the lift
truck and in the language used by the operator.
• The operator's manual and any plates or stickers
which are no longer legible or are damaged must be
replaced immediately.
• When handling bulky loads, which restrict your
vision, operate the machine in reverse or have a
guide.
1.2.5 MAINTENANCE
• Maintenance or repairs other than those detailed in
section - MAINTENANCE must be carried out by
qualified personnel (consult your dealer) and in the
necessary safety conditions to preserve the health
of the operator and any third party.
NOTICE
Your lift truck must be inspected periodically to make sure
that it remains in compliance.
The frequency of this inspection is defined by current
legislation in the country in which the lift truck is
used.
• Example for France: "The manager in charge of the
establishment using a lift truck must open and
maintain a maintenance log for each machine
(order of 2 March 2004) and undergo a general
periodic inspection every 6 months (order of 1
March 2004)".
