4.1
Residual danger/general safety instructions
Despite the greatest of care having been taken during the design
and construction of the landing gear in accordance with all safety
relevant circumstances, it is nevertheless possible for residual dan-
gers to arise that have been evaluated by means of a risk assess-
ment.
WARNING!
Beware of the danger of crushing when working
with the components of the landing gear, some of
which are heavy.
Beware of the danger of crushing when inserting
the connection shaft into the holes of the trailer. It
is essential to obtain assistance from a second per-
son during this activity so that the connection shaft
can be inserted into the opposite hole without mis-
alignment.
During installation work on the electric drive, also
beware of the crushing hazard between the shaft
and electric drive.
If the landing gear is assembled without being
mounted on a trailer (e.g. for maintenance activi-
ties), it is essential to secure it against falling over.
Be aware of the danger of crushing on the pin and
fork when installing the hand crank of the free-
wheel kit.
Be aware of the danger of crushing when swivelling
up and engaging the crank in the square profile.
Be aware of the danger of crushing between the
inner tube and landing gear foot when installing
the landing gear foot.
Be aware of the danger of crushing when installing
the bracing. Screw on the bracing components
gradually. Loose screw connections cause shearing
edges and thus represent a danger of crushing.
Be aware of the danger of snagging between the
gear wheels during maintenance activities.
