Selecting the drive direction
The desired drive direction of the truck must
be selected using the drive direction switch
before attempting to drive. Actuation of the
drive direction switch depends on which
operating devices are fitted on the truck.
Possible equipment variants include:
• Multiple-lever
• Mini-lever
• Joystick 4Plus
• Fingertip
• Mini-console
NOTE
The drive direction can also be changed during
travel. Your foot can remain on the accelerator
pedal while doing so. The truck decelerates
and is then accelerated again in the opposite
direction (reversing).
The indicator for the selected drive direction
("forwards" (1) or "reverse" (2)) lights up on the
display and operating unit.
Neutral position
If the truck is stopped for an extended period,
select the neutral position to prevent the truck
from suddenly starting if the accelerator pedal
is pressed inadvertently.
– Briefly select the drive direction switch
for the direction opposite to the current
direction.
The drive direction indicator on the display and
operating unit goes out.
NOTE
When the seat is vacated, the drive direction
switch is set to "Neutral". To drive, the drive
direction switch must be actuated again.
