Never switch into neutral position whilst driving.
In neutral position, the truck crane may accelerate and the engine retarder
is ineffective.

Danger when starting to reverse
When starting to reverse, always keep the truck crane stationary with the
parking brake until the transmission clutch is engaged. If the truck crane
starts to roll away before this (when changing from brake pedal to acceler-
ator), no gear will be engaged, and you can stop the truck crane only by
braking.
