Safety information for the verticalizer 

 

 

 

CAUTION: Danger of tipping! 

• 

When the verticalizer is raised drive operation only serves positioning and not normal driving. 

• 

Never drive over uneven ground, on an upward or downward slope or over obstacles when 
the verticalizer is raised. 

 

 

 

 

CAUTION! The user can fall out of the seat if the restraining systems are not used.   

• 

Only raise the verticalizer if all restraining systems – restraining belt and knee strap – have 
been applied and locked properly. 

 

 

 

 

CAUTION! If the seat depth is not adjusted properly, there is danger of the verticalizer 
being destroyed.  

• 

The lower and upper perforated bars of the parallelogramm must be adjusted analogue to 
each other. In the event of diversity in adjustment the verticalizer will be destroyed when 
operated due to the modified geometry.
