Attachments
Attachments must only be used for their inten-
ded purpose. The driver must be instructed in
the handling of the attachments.
Operating instructions for the attachment are
enclosed for trucks that are delivered and fit-
ted with an attachment. Before commissioning
a truck with an attachment, you must check
that loads are handled safely. Depending on
the type of attachment, it may be necessary to
make adjustments. Corresponding instructions
can be found in the operating instructions for
the attachment.
If the attachments are not supplied with the in-
dustrial truck, the specifications from the in-
dustrial truck manufacturer and the attach-
ment manufacturer must be observed.
Fitting attachments and connecting the power
supply for the attachments must only be car-
ried out by specialists in accordance with the
manufacturer's specifications. After every in-
stallation, check the correct operation of the
attachments before use.
Do not exceed the maximum authorised load
capacity for the attachments and the industrial
truck (load capacity and load moment) com-
bined with the attachments; refer to the addi-
tional capacity rating plate.
Modifications, in particular attachments or
conversions, are not permitted to be made to
the industrial truck without the manufacturer's
approval.
Trailers
Industrial trucks may be used to tow trailers if
the manufacturer has designed them for that
purpose and they are equipped with a suitable
trailer coupling. Do not exceed the maximum
towed load capacity specified in the operating
instructions for braked or unbraked trailers.
The industrial truck must be operated in such
a way as to ensure safe driving and braking of
the towed vehicle in all circumstances.
