Residual dangers, residual risks
Despite all operational precautions and
compliance with standards and rules, the
possibility of additional risks when using the
tow tractor cannot be entirely excluded.
The tow tractor and all its components comply
with the regulations relating to current applica-
ble safety rules.
Persons in the vicinity of the tow tractor must
be particularly cautious and react immediately
in the event of any malfunction, incident,
breakdown etc.
WARNING
Personnel in contact with the tow tractor must be
informed of the risks related to using the tow tractor.
These operating instructions draw your attention to
the safety rules.
The risks are:
• Escape of consumables due to leaks,
ruptured lines and tanks etc.
• Risk of accident when driving over difficult
ground such as slopes, soft or irregular
surfaces or in poor visibility etc.
• Falling, tripping etc. when moving on the
tow truck, especially in the wet, with leaking
consumables or on icy surfaces
• Loss of stability due to the load being
unstable or the load slipping etc.
• Risk of fire and explosion due to batteries
and electrical voltages
• Human error — disregarding safety regula-
tions
It is important to adjust the speed of the tow
tractor depending on the load and ground
conditions.
The stability of the tow tractor has been tested
to the latest standards. These standards only
take account of the static and dynamic tilting
forces that can arise during operation that
complies with the specifications and operating
rules. Risks caused by misuse or incorrect
operation that jeopardise the stability cannot
be ruled out in extreme situations.
