Danger of the truck crane starting to roll away unexpectedly
When starting to move forwards, always keep the truck crane stationary
with the parking brake until the transmission is engaged. If the truck crane
starts to roll away before this (when changing from brake pedal to acceler-
ator), no gear will be engaged, and you can stop the truck crane only by
braking.
