2 Tilting the cab
1. Remove lever key .
2. Pull lever down until it is fitted in stopper .
WARNING
• Before tilting or lowering the cab, make
sure that the area around the cab is clear
of people and obstructions.
• The cab will move too quickly under the
effect of inertia if it is tilted on a slope,
possibly causing damage to various vehi-
cle components. Doing so is dangerous as
the hook may not engage completely when
the cab is lowered.
Never tilt the cab when the vehicle is on
any kind of slope.
• Never tilt the cab with persons inside.
• The cab can drop suddenly if it has heavy
objects inside or is fitted with a roof deck.
You should be sufficiently aware of this for
your safety.
• Do not operate the steering wheel, gear-
shift lever, or any other controls in a tilted
cab. Doing so could lead to an accident.
WARNING
Be sure to push the lever fully into the
stopper and confirm that the stopper
retains it properly. If the lever is improperly
retained, the cab lock mechanism may be
damaged when the cab is lowered and will
fail to lock the cab in position. This condition
is very dangerous as the cab could acciden-
tally tilt up when the vehicle vibrates or
receives shocks while driving, possibly lead-
ing to an accident.
