Trials have shown that the amount of hand-
arm vibration when using the steering wheel
and controls is less than 2.5 m/s

for industrial
trucks. Consequently, no legal guidelines
exist for this type of measurement.
The personal stress on the o
perator caused by
vibrations during a day’s w
ork must be noted if
necessary at the actual w
orkplace so as to be
able to consider all the o
ther factors such as
the state of the track, th
e intensity of use etc.
Traction battery emissi
ons
Battery charging releases an explosive
oxygen/hydrogen gas mixture (oxyhydrogen).
This gas mixture is highly explosive and must
not be ignited. Risk of explosion may be
reduced by charging in an open area, away
from all sources of open flames or sparks.
Observe the safety regulations for handling
batteries.
