General safety information
General safety information
• Essentially, all safety information located
on the truck must be observed.
• Missing or illegible safety information is to
be changed.
• When cornering and driving past parts of
buildings that restrict visibility, use the horn
to warn others that the truck is approaching.
• If the driver’s view is obstructed, e.g. due to
a bulky load, a guide must patrol the route
to ensure safety.
• When driving through doorways and under
ceiling joists, take the height of the truck into
consideration.
• Multiple operations or other types of oper-
ations not described here, especially the
blocking or disabling of operating devices,
can cause damage to the truck but also
uncontrolled movements and is therefore
prohibited.
• By removing and taking the switch key when
leaving the truck, the driver can secure the
truck against unauthorised use.
• If required by the area of application and
work situation, the operator must use
suitable personal protective equipment
such as protective shoes, safety helmet,
protective gloves or industrial goggles.
The operator and operating company are
responsible for ensuring this.
• The openings in the gassing area of the
battery must not be covered or fully closed.
The unrestricted air supply is required
to prevent the formation of potentially
explosive gas mixtures.
• Under no circumstances should openings
be made in the battery’s gassing area,
which could allow the gas created during
charging to enter the area of the driver’s
compartment.
Operating safety is more important than
working speed!
