2.2. Safety precautions during operation Safety Transports palettes only individually. If you are instructed by the responsible colleague to transport more than one box palette, which are also piled up, you must make sure in any case that the locations under which the forklift truck attachment is gripping for transporting are in perfect condition. The overall height of the palette pile must not exceed 6.56 ft (2 m). Make sure that the fork tines are adapted to the length of the load. Move the fork tines so far under the load that the load comes to a rest at the fork back. Make sure that the fork tines are adapted to the length of the load.
Move the fork tines so far under the load that the load comes to a rest at the fork back. If you are transporting a load which is impairing your sight on the route, you must drive the machine into a direction in which you have free sight. If it cannot be avoided, drive backwards. If this is not possible, ask a colleague to assist you by clearing your way and indicating to you any obstacle. In this case, drive very slowly and extremely careful. During transporting, lower the boom to its transport position. Both red arrows of the transport position marking (see adjacent figure) on the bucket cylinder must be next to each other. Incline the load slightly to the back during the transport.
Always drive slowly when you are transporting loads (speed range 1). If you are driving on slopes or hills, transport the load always in such a way that it is pointing to uphil. The boom performs a semicircular movement during the lifting. Lift the boom to the desired transporting height only shortly before approaching the deposit surface. This prevents that the load is damaged during the lifting. Lower the forklift truck attachment completely to the ground before quitting the driver's cab. 2-16 WA100M-5 – VEAM280201
