Safety 3
Essentials for safe operation
DANGER
Risk to life from falling load!
If the truck is not equipped with an overhead guard,
there is a risk to the driver’s life, as he may be struck
by a load falling from a lift height of 1800 mm or
greater.
Operation of the truck without an overhead guard at
a lift height of over 1800 mm is prohibited.
– For lift heights of 1800 mm and above, only use
trucks with an overhead guard.
In the event of the manufacturer going into
liquidation and the company not being taken
over by another legal person, the operating
company can make changes to the truck.
To do so, the operating company must fulfil
the following prerequisites:
Construction documents, test documents
and assembly instructions associated with
the change must be archived and remain
accessible at all times.
Check that the capacity rating plate, decal in-
formation, hazard warnings and the operating
instructions are consistent with regard to the
changes and modify if necessary.
The change must be designed, checked
and implemented by a design office that
specialises in industrial trucks in accordance
with the standards and directives valid at the
time the changes are made.
Decal information with the following data must
be permanently affixed to the truck so it is
clearly visible:
– Type of change
– Date of change
– Name and address of the company imple-
menting the change.
