Chapter 2 | Emergency
Tilting the Cab
General
WARNING
Make sure that the filler caps of the
cooling system, the hydraulic clutch
and the windshield washer reservoir
are tightened. Do not loosen the filler
caps when the cab is tilted.
WARNING
Only tilt the cab when the engine has
stopped.
WARNING
Make sure there is sufficient clearance
around the cab.
WARNING
You can stop tilting the cab forward at
any time by turning the valve to posi-
tion
⇓
.
WARNING
If the vehicle has been involved in a
collision, the cab must under no cir-
cumstances be tilted without due pre-
cautions. The internal mechanism of
the lifting cylinder may have been
damaged to such an extent that the
cylinder is no longer locked by the in-
ternal stop washer. In that case there
is a danger of the cab no longer being
held back and falling forward to the
ground. Have your authorized Service
dealer check the tilting mechanism.
WARNING
Make sure that there is no one in the
cab. Also make sure there are no
loose objects inside the cab; this in-
cludes objects in the refrigerator. Make
sure there are no people immediately
in front of the cab.
WARNING
Never work under the cab if the cab
has not been tilted fully forward.
NOTE
If a cooler box/refrigerator has been fit-
ted, it should be switched off and if
necessary unplugged before tilting
(depending on the type). The cooler
box/refrigerator should remain switch-
ed off at least 30 minutes after the cab
has been tilted back.
The cab is tilted hydraulically using a hand
pump. This pump is located at the co-
driver's side, behind the cab. The pump
has a cock which can be moved to two
positions:
•
position
⇑
to tilt the cab forwards.
•
position
⇓
to tilt the cab
backwards; this is also the driving
position.
