Basic principles for safe operatio
n
DANGER
Risk of injury if truck tips over!
Even if an approved restraint system
is in use, there is still a residual risk
that the driver could be injured if the
trucktipsover. Theriskofinjurycan
be reduced by using the restraint
system in conjunction with the seat
belt. In addition, the seat belt protects
against the consequences of rear-end
collisions and falling off ramps.
– Use the seat belt too.
Only the authorised service centre is permitted
to perform welding work on the truck.
DANGER
Risk of explosion from additional
bores in the battery hood!
Explosive gases can escape and can
lead to potentially fatal injuries if they
explode. Sealing bores with plugs
is not sufficient to prevent gas from
escaping.
– Do not drill any holes in the battery
hood.
DANGER
Risk of accident from additional holes in the battery
hood!
The rigidity of the battery hood is impaired and
the battery hood can break. The driver's seat may
collapse into the battery hood, which could cause
the driver to perform uncontrolled steering and
driving manoeuvres.
– Do not drill any holes in the battery hood.
DANGER
Risk to
life from falling load!

may be
struck by a load falling from a lift height of
1800 mm
or greater.
Operat
ion of the truck without an overhead guard is
prohi
bited at a lift height greater than 1800 mm.
–Atli
ft heights of 1800 mm and above, only use
