Braking
THE BRAKING PERFORMANCE DEPENDS ON THE TRACK CONDITIONS AND THE LOAD
CONDITIONS OF THE TRUCK
The braking function can be activated in several ways:
•
By mo
ving the accelerator knob (10) back to the initial ‘0’ position or by releasing the knob, the
regenerative braking is activated. The truck starts braking until it stops.
•
By moving the accelerator knob (26) from one driving direction directly to the opposite direction, the
truck brakes regenerative until it starts traveling into the opposite direction.
•
The truck brakes, if the tiller is moved up or down to the braking zone (‘B’). If the tiller is released,
the tiller moves automatically up to the upper bakin
g zone (‘B’).The truck starts braking until it stops.
•
The safety (belly) button (8) prevents the operator from being crushed. If this button is activated, the
truck decelerates and/ or starts traveling backwards (‘Bw.’) for a short distance and stops. Please
consider, that this button also operates, if the truck is not traveling and the tiller is in the operating
zone.
