Basic principles for safe operation
Insurance cover on company prem-
ises
In many cases, company premises are restric-
ted public traffic areas.
NOTE
The business liability insurance should be re-
viewed to ensure that, in the event of any
damage caused in restricted public traffic
areas, there is insurance cover for the truck in
respect of third parties.
Changes and retrofitting
If the truck will be used for work that is not lis-
ted in the directives or in these instructions,
convert or retrofit the truck for this purpose as
required. Any structural modification can im-
pair the handling and stability of the truck, and
can result in accidents.
Any modifications that adversely affect the
stability, the load capacity or the circumferen-
tial view of the truck require written approval
from the manufacturer.
The following components may only be modi-
fied with prior written approval from the manu-
facturer:
●
Brakes
●
Steering
●
Operating devices
●
Safety systems
●
Equipment variants
●
Attachments
The truck may only be converted with written
approval from the manufacturer. If necessary,
obtain approval from the relevant authorities.
Only the authorised service centre is permitted
to perform welding work on the truck.
We warn against installing and using restraint
systems not approved by the manufacturer.
