Safety Information
you have a perfect view of the front
and rear path of travel and working
area!
• For safety reasons, the driver's seat
is equipped with a seat contact
switch. The vehicle can only be start-
ed when the operator is sitting on the
driver's seat. The function of the seat
contact switch must not be by-
passed.
• The seat contact switch is monitored
electronically. Any attempt at manip-
ulation can lead to the vehicle being
automatically locked against use.
• Always switch off all the drives be-
fore switching the vehicle on.
• The vehicle must only be started, put
into motion and stopped from the
seat.
• Ensure there is sufficient ventilation
when sweeping in closed spaces
(dust).
• The driving speed must always be
adapted to the ambient conditions
and load status.
Three-wheel vehicles are less stable
than four-wheel vehicles, therefore:
avoid sudden steering movements
when driving at higher speeds, tak-
ing corners at too high a speed could
cause the vehicle to tip.
Only use the vehicles on level sur-
faces, never on gradients.
Drive up and down inclines in
straight lines.
When driving up, down or across
slopes, avoid turning corners sud-
denly or in jerks. There is a risk of tip-
ping when in an inclined position!
• Do not drive the vehicle on slopes
with a gradient steeper than the limit
gradient indicated on the vehicle.
• The approved gross total weight and
permissible axle loads must never
be exceeded. Check the fill level of
the dirt hopper at frequent intervals.
• Before raising or lowering the dirt
hopper, ensure that there are no per-
sons, animals or items in the working
area.
• Risk of crushing and shearing.
Before raising or lowering the dirt
hopper, ensure that there is a suffi-
cient safety clearance.
• The dirt hopper may only be raised in
the direct vicinity of the container.
Only empty the dirt hopper on level,
solid ground.
• Never sweep when the dirt hopper is
in a raised position.
• Pay attention to any persons in the
vicinity when emptying the dirt hop-
per.
• The filter may only be shaken when
the dirt hopper has been closed.
• Never exceed the max. load capacity
of the container!
• The vehicle may only be driven at
creeping speed when the dirt hopper
has been raised. Avoid any sudden
steering movements or decelera-
tions.
• When driving down a slope, use the
brake to decelerate the vehicle.
• Before starting to drive, the seat con-
sole must be locked by means of the
rollover bar (only with cab safety roof
option).
• Do not use the vehicle in areas
where the driver is at risk of being hit
by falling objects (e.g. warehouses)
without a protective roof structure
(refer to the cab safety roof option)).

sponsible for you as to whether obli-
gations exist in this respect.
