SAFETY REGULATIONS
BEFORE OPERATION
Persons responsible, particularly
machine drivers and service staff,
must be instructed on the regulations
for normal and safe use of commercial
lift-machine which accompany this
manual. Follow the guidelines and
safety regulations applicable to:
- use of commercial machine
- roads and work places
- drivers (rights, obligations and
regulations for implementation)
- any extra equipment
- different types of vehicle
- service (maintenance and inspection)
- annual inspection for the prevention
of accidents.
The driver /(owner) or other persons in
positions of responsibility must ensure
that the above guidelines and safety
regulations are adhered to. When a
trained driver is about to operate the
truck, instruct him on:
- special functions of the SMV
machine extra equipment
- special operating applications.
Driving, manoeuvring and steering
should be practised until the driver is
fully acquainted with all these
operations.
Only after that stage can training in
stacking manoeuvres begin.
The stability of the machine in the
working area can only be guaranteed if
the correct procedures are followed.
Should the machine start to roll due to
unapproved manoeuvres or incorrect
driving, the full instructions supplied
must be followed.
Prevention of accidents
In some countries, lift-machines must
be inspected once a year by trained
staff in accordance with the prevention
of accidents regulations. Authorised
SMV dealers can supply information
on these.
We reserve the right to modify our
design and material specifications
without prior notice.
