Industrial trucks must only be serviced and maintained by the manufacturer’s trained
personnel.
The manufacturer’s service department has field technicians specially trained for
these tasks. We therefore recommend a maintenance contract with the
manufacturer’s local service centre.

When an industrial truck is to be lifted, the lifting gear must only be secured to the
points specially provided for this purpose.
When jacking up the truck, take appropriate measures to prevent the truck from
slipping or tipping over (e.g. wedges, wooden blocks).
You may only work underneath a raised load handler if it is supported by a sufficiently
strong chain.

Do not use flammable liquids to clean the industrial truck.
Prior to cleaning, all safety measures required to prevent sparking (e.g. through short
circuits) must be taken. For battery-operated trucks, the battery connector must be
removed.
Only weak suction or compressed air and non-conductive antistatic brushes may be
used for cleaning electric or electronic assemblies.
