Emergency hammer
The emergency hammer is used to rescue the
driver if he is shut inside the cab in a hazard-
ous situation, for example if the truck has top-
pled over and the cab door cannot be opened.
Single-pane safety glass can be struck rela-
tively safely using the emergency hammer in
order for the driver to escape or be rescued
from the danger area.

smashed, the face should be turned away and cov-
ered with the crook of the free arm.

port mounting at the handle.

Using one of the two metal tips on the head
of the emergency hammer, hit the pane of
glass with force until it breaks.
