Basic principles for safe operatio
n
DANGER
Risk to life from falling load!
There is a risk to the driver's life if the truck is not
equipped with an overhead guard, as the driver
may be struck by a load falling from a lift height of
1800 mm or greater.
Operation of the truck without an overhead guard is
prohibited at a lift height greater than 1800 mm.
– At lift heights of 1800 mm and above, only use
the truck in conjunction with an overhead guard.
The operating company is only permitted to
make modifications to the truck independently
if the manufacturer goes into liquidation and
the company is not taken over by another legal
person.
The operating company must also fulfil the
following prerequisites:
• Design documents, t
est documents and
assembly instructi
ons associated with the
modification must be
permanently archived
and remain accessib
le at all times.
• The capacity rating plate, the decal informa-
tion, the hazard warnings and the operating
instructions must be checked to ensure that
they are consistent with the modifications
and must be amended if required.
• Modifications must be designed, checked
and implemented by a design office that
specialises in industrial trucks. The design
office must comply with the standards and
directives valid at the time that modifications
are made.
Decal information with the following data must
be permanently affixed to the truck so that it is
clearly visible:
• Type of modification
• Date of modification
• Name and address of the company that
carried out the modification
