In most countries, a driver's licence is required
to operate these trucks.
Please check whether a driver's licence is re-
quired to operate this truck in your country.
This driver's licence serves as proof that com-
prehensive training has been completed. As

for ensuring that this requirement is fulfilled.
We recommend that you contact your branch
or specialist representative. They will be able
to offer you the relevant training and tests
required to obtain your driver's licence.
Alterations to industrial trucks
Operating companies may only make alter-
ations or arrange for alterations to be made
to self-propelled industrial trucks if the indus-
trial truck manufacturer has withdrawn from
business and there is no business successor.
However, operating companies must:
• Ensure that any alterations being made and
all associated safety issues are planned,
checked and performed by a specialist
engineer for industrial trucks
• Have permanent records of the construc-
tion, test(s) and execution of the alterations
• Make and approve corresponding alter-
ations to the signs stating the load capacity,
