(3) Foot switch driving direction
(5) Drive pedal
ADVICE
The following is only for operating mode "Rabbit II": the driving pedal (5) must be
released completely for switching to drive in the reverse direction. Wait until the
machine comes to a complete standstill (0.0 km/h). Only then the foot switch "Dri-
ving direction" may be pushed and held in this position. When the gas pedal is now
pushed, then the machine drives backward.
In the operating modes „Rabbit I“ the driving direction may be changed on low speed.
A warning signal always sounds while driving backward, which draws the attention of
other people to the reversing movement. Simultaneously, both backup lamps are auto-
matically switched on.
ATTENTION
Hazard of damage to the machine.
When driving in reverse, always make sure that the counterweight is raised high
enough that neither the counterweight nor the underrun protective device contact the
ground/road surface. This danger exists when sharply rising terrain is located to the
rear of the machine.
