IFT TRUCK ON A PLATFORM
TRANSPORT
Ensure that the safety instructions connected to the platform are respected before
the loading of the lift truck and that the driver of the means of transport is informed
about the dimensions and the weight of the lift truck (See chapter :
CHARACTERISTICS in paragraph : 2 - DESCRIPTION).
Ensure that the platform has got dimensions and a load capacity sufficient for
transporting the lift truck. Check also the pressure on the contact surface allowable
for the platform in connection with the lift truck.
For lift trucks equipped with a turbo-charged I.C. engine, block off the exhaust outlet
to avoid rotation of the turbo shaft without lubrication when transporting the vehicle.

truck.
- Load the lift truck parallel to the platform.
- Stop the lift truck (See chapter : DRIVING INSTRUCTIONS in paragraph : 1 -
OPERATING AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS).
