Automatic tow coupling
DANGER
People may be trapped between the truck and trail-
er.
When hooking up, ensure that no one is between the
truck and trailer.
DANGER
Never jack up the truck on the tow coupling or use
it for crane lifting. The tow coupling is not designed
for this and could be deformed or damaged. This
could cause the truck to fall, with potentially fatal
consequences!
–
Use the tow coupling only for towing.
–
For jacking up and crane loading, use only the
designated lifting points.
DANGER
The tow coupling is not designed to support loads
and could become deformed or destroyed. This
could cause the supported load to fall, with poten-
tially fatal consequences!
–
The tow coupling should be subjected only to hori-
zontal loads, i.e. the tiller must be horizontal.
DANGER
If you briefly leave the truck to couple or uncouple
the trailer, there is a risk to life caused by the truck
rolling away and running you over.
–
Apply the parking brake.
–
Lower the forks to the ground.
–
Switch off the key switch and remove the key.
WARNING
Never reach between the coupling pins and the tow-
ing jaws. If the component moves suddenly there is a
risk of injury!
–
To release the coupling pin, actuate the corre-
sponding lever or use a suitable device (e.g. as-
sembly lever).
–
When not in use, close the automatic tow cou-
pling.
