Operation
Driving
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).
NOTE
In the event of an electrical fault with the
accelerator the drive unit is shut down. The
electrical brake (service brake) causes the
truck to decelerate. The truck cannot be driven
again until the accelerator pedal has been
released and then actuated again, provided
the electrical fault has been corrected. If the
truck still cannot be operated, park it securely
and contact your authorised service centre.
