Preparing the industrial truck for maintenance and servicing
All necessary safety measures must be taken to prevent accidents during
maintenance and servicing. The following conditions must be established:
– Switch off and secure the industrial truck
(see "Switching off and securing the vehicle" in Chapter E).
– Pull out the battery connector or separate the battery connection to prevent the
truck being started up accidentally.
– When working beneath the industrial truck in a raised position, it must be secured
in such a way that it cannot fall, tip or slide.
Qw W
For work under raised load-handling equipment or industrial truck, each must
be secured in such a way that it cannot fall, tip or slide. When lifting the truck
you must follow the instructions set out in "Transportation and
commissioning."
If you are working on the parking brake, secure the truck to prevent it rolling
away accidentally.
