Safety Light safety headlight
Function
The safety headlight is a device that can be fit-
ted to industrial trucks in order to give pedes-
trians sufficient warning of an approaching in-
dustrial truck. This function helps to improve
safety in storage areas, as it can prevent in-
dustrial trucks from colliding with pedestrians.
To prevent such accidents, the safety head-
light is fitted to the lift mast at a suitable height
so that it projects a powerful beam of light on-
to the ground a few metres in front of the in-
dustrial truck. If pedestrians notice this beam
of light, they have enough time to react ac-
cordingly. Safety headlights are available in
different colours.
DANGER
The driver of the industrial truck still has full duty of
care in relation to pedestrians and other industrial
trucks, regardless of whether this safety headlight
is fitted to their truck.
The driver cannot assume that pedestrians will notice
the beam of light in good time, interpret it correctly
and then react correctly.
NOTE
Industrial truck drivers and pedestrians must
be provided with instructions to advise them of
the safety headlight function and its use for
their protection.
Residual dangers
Due to the functionality and design of the sys-
tem, the safety headlight cannot provide com-
prehensive protection for other transport users
in the racking system.
The safety headlight cannot illuminate in the
direction of crossing traffic.
The customer can choose for the safety head-
light to be switched on:
●
Depending on the drive direction
●
Only at the point of moving off
●
Only in predefined areas (zones)
