Hydraulic lifting roof

WARNING
Risk of accident when driving with a
raised roof!
Driving with a raised roof causes the
vehicle to become unstable and exceeds
the maximum permitted vehicle height,
which can lead to accidents involving per-
sonal injury and material damage.
► Lower the roof before every trip.
CAUTION
Risk of accident due to loads on the
lifting roof!
Loads (e.g. objects, ice, snow), on the lift-
ing roof can fall down when lifting and
lowering, injuring people and causing ma-
terial damage.
► Ensure that there are no loads on the
lifting roof before every lifting and
lowering operation.
NOTE
Material damage due to insufficient free
space above the lifting roof!
Opening the lifting roof without sufficient
free space above it can result in material
damage to the vehicle superstructure.
► Ensure that there is sufficient free
space above the lifting roof before
every lifting and lowering operation.
NOTE
Unopened doors and non-adjusted
centre posts and curtain tensioning
devices can cause material damage!
Operating the roof lift or adjusting the su-
perstructure
without
first opening the con-
tainer doors, opening the centre posts,
and all curtain tensioning devices can res-
ult in material damage to the superstruc-
ture, external beam, and curtain.
► Open all curtain tensioning devices
(curtain buckles, front/rear curtain ten-
sioning devices) before every lifting
and lowering operation.
► Fully open the doors and the centre
posts before every lifting and lowering
operation.
Hydraulical lifting roofs facilitate the loading
and unloading of the trailer. The roof can
be lifted separately at the front and the
rear.
