ot be held responsi-
ble for accidents involv

Stability
The stability of the truck has been tested to the
latest technological standards and is guaran-
teed provided that the truck is used properly
and according to its intended purpose. These
standards only take into account the dynamic
and static tipping forces that can arise during
specified use in accordance with the operat-
ing rules and intended purpose. However, the
danger of exceeding the moment of tilt due to
improper use or incorrect operation and losing
stability can never be excluded.
The loss of stability can be avoided or min-
imised by the following actions:
– Always secure the load against
slipping,
e.g. by lashing.
