Always make sure that there is sufficient clearance when driving
under underpasses, over bridges and through tunnels or when pas
sing under overhead cables. The same minimum clearances apply
when driving under high
− voltage lines as when working with the
placing boom. Be aware of the height of the truck. Only drive over
arches, bridges or other supporting structures if the loadbearing ca
pacity is adequate.
Do not drive across uphill or downhill gradients. Be aware of the el
evated position of the truck’s centre of gravity when travelling on a
slope and on ascending or descending routes. Always adapt your
travelling speed to the prevailing conditions on sloping terrain. Never
change to a lower gear on a slope but always before reaching it.
Observe national road traffic regulations. If necessary, clean the
tyres, lights and number plate. Before travelling with the machine,
check that the braking, steering, signalling and lighting systems are
fully functional.
Persons accompanying the driver must be seated on the passenger
seats provided for this purpose.
Whilst the truck is in motion, the mixer drum on truck mixer concrete
pumps must only be rotated at the maximum speed of rotation speci
fied in the Operating Instructions. The truck is at risk of tipping over,
particularly when travelling round corners.
The machine must only be towed, loaded and transported in accord
ance with the Operating Instructions. Only use existing towing
hitches for towing and observe the truck manufacturer’s regulations.
You must comply with the prescribed driving position, permitted
speed and itinerary when towing.
