Still EXV 14D - Parking and Stopping the Truck

CAUTION
Risk of load tipping. Do not use braking by reversing
when driving
with a load on the forks.
CAUTION
The operator must regulate the travel control by
adapting truck braking to the type of load being car-
ried in order to avoid losing the load.
WARNING
To ensure an adequate level of safety when driving
the truck, the travel controls must be operated and/or
turned manually during both the acceleration phase
and the deceleration phase, and when stopping the
truck.
The automatic return of the travel controls to the neu-
tral position is not to be considered as a feature of
normal driving for the truck. The automatic return of
the travel controls is only to ensure that they return to
the neutral position in any situation where uninten-
tional operations that fall outside of the truck's proper
and intended use may occur.
Braking using the tiller (service braking)
Braking using the tiller can be performed in
the following ways:
●
During travel, push the tiller to the upper
end position. The truck will decelerate very
sharply to a stop.
●
During travel, push the tiller to the lower
end position. The truck will decelerate very
sharply to a stop.
●
During travel, release the tiller. The tiller will
automatically return to the upper end posi-
tion. The truck will decelerate very sharply
to a stop.
WARNING
The condition of the floor surface considerably af-
fects the braking distance of the truck.
The operator must consider this factor while driving.
CAUTION
In dangerous situations, always brake using the serv-
ice brake.
To activate the service brakes, always push the tiller
as far as it will go.
Parking brake
●
When the traction control throttle is re-
leased, the truck stops using the electro-
magnetic brake when its speed approaches
0 km/h or when the tiller returns to the verti-
cal position
Parking and stopping the truck
●
Parking in pre-arranged and designated
areas.

Lower the forks to the ground.
