r
DANGER
If the truck tips over, the driver could fall out and
slide under the truck with potentially fatal conse-
quences. There is a risk to life.
Failure to comply with the limits specified in these
operating instructions, e.g. driving on unacceptably
steep gradients or failing to adjust speed when
cornering, can cause the truck to tip over. If the
truck starts to tip over, do not leave the truck under
any circumstances. This increases the danger of
being hit by the truck.
– Do not release your seat belt.
– Never jump off the truck.
– You must adhere to the rules of behaviour if the
trucktipsover.
Rules of behaviour if truck tips over:
– Hold onto the steering wheel with your
hands.
– Brace your feet in the footwell.
– Bend your upper body over the steering
wheel.
– Bend your body against the direction of the
fall.
Emergency lowering
If the hydraulic control system fails whilst a
load is raised, emergency lowering can be
performed. An emergency lowering screw for
this purpose is located on the valve block.
