ADJUSTMENT OF THE ANGLE OF THE BACK-REST (FIG. G)
- Support the back-rest, pull the lever and tlt the back-rest to the desired position.
If you do not support the back-rest when making adjustments, it will swing fully forward.
HORIZONTAL SHOCK ABSORBER (FIG. H)
In certain conditions (e.g. Driving with a trailer) it is advisable to use a horizontal shock
absorber. The driver’s seat is thus better able to absorb shocks in the direction of travel.
- Position 1: Horizontal shock absorber fitted.
- Position 2: Horizontal shock absorber removed.
DAMPING (FIG. I)
The damping of the seat can be adjusted to suit the nature of the terrain. The comfort of
the seat is thus adjustable to suit your requirements.
- Position 1: Soft damping.
- Position 2: Hard damping.
LONGITUDINAL ADJUSTMENT (FIG. J)
- Engage the locking lever in the position shift into another position required. This then
locks and the seat can not be moved to another position.
MAINTENANCE (FIG. K)
Dirt may adversely affect the correct functioning of the seat. For this reason, make sure
your seat is always clean.
- To clean or replace the cushions, simply remove them from the seat frame.
A rocking back-rest increases the risk of an accident!
Avoid wetting the cushion fabric when cleaning. Check the resistance of the fabric on a
small hidden area before using any fabric or plastic cleaner.
2 - SAFETY BELT
- Sit correctly on the seat.
- Check that seat belt is not twisted.
- Place the seat belt at hip level.
- Attach the seat belt and check that it locks.
- Adjust the seat belt to your body shape without squeezing your hip and without exc essive
play.
Under no circumstances should the lift truck be used if the seat belt is defective (fixing, locking,
cuts, tears, etc.). Repair or replace the seat belt immediately.
