3 Moving the truck with the drive unit inoperative
In order to move the truck without
electricity supply, the spring-loaded
brake must be disengages as follows:
– Set lever (1) to position “Disengage
spring-loaded brake”.
– Turn the steering wheel clockwise
until pressure builds up in the
hydraulics circuit and the spring-
loaded brake is disengaged. (This can
be noticed by checking whether the
brake pedal functions normally, if the
brake is still engaged you feel an
immediate resistance). The drive
wheels are no longer blocked resp.
decelerated by the spring-loaded
brake. The foot brake will still be fully
operative. While turning the steering
wheel the foot brake must not be
actuated.
f
Before the driver leaves the truck with the spring-loaded brake disengaged he must
secure the truck against accidental rolling away.
m
Prior to recommissioning the truck by applying power again, lever (1) must be set to
the right to “Travel position”. The truck is now ready to operate in travel position.

the truck to be towed.

f
There must be a person for steering the truck on the driver seat of the truck to be
