Towing
DANGER
The brake system on the towing vehicle may fail.
There is a risk of accident!
If the towing vehicle’s brake system is not of the
correct size, the vehicle cannot be braked securely
or the brakes may fail. The towing vehicle must be
able to absorb the pulling and braking forces from
the unbraked towed load (total actual weight of the
truck).
– Check the pulling and braking force of the towing
vehicle.
DANGER
The truck could drive into the towing vehicle when
the towing vehicle brakes. There is a risk of acci-
dent!
If a rigid connection has not been used during
towing for the power transmission in two directions,
the truck may drive into the towing vehicle when the
towing vehicle brakes. For safety reasons, only a
tested tow bar may be used.
– Useatestedtowbar.
– Set down load and lower fork arms close to
the ground.
CAUTION
If the truck drive between the drive motor and
the drive axle is not interrupted, the drive may be
damaged.

CAUTION
Risk of component damage!
If you remove the battery male connector while
the key switch is switched on (under load), an arc
will be produced. This can lead to corrosion at the
contacts, which considerably shortens their service
life.
– Do not disconnect the battery male connector
while the key switch is switched on.
