Negotiating slopes and inclines
Negotiating slopes and inclines up to 15% is only permitted if they are specifically
designed as travel routes, are clean and have a non-slip surface and providing they
can be safely travelled along in accordance with the truck's technical specifications.
The truck must always be driven with the load facing uphill. The industrial truck must
not be turned, operated at an angle or parked on inclines and slopes. Inclines must
only be negotiated at slow speed, with the driver ready to brake at any moment.
Particular care is required when travelling near slopes and quay walls.
Negotiating lifts, loading ramps and docks
Lifts may only be negotiated if they have sufficient capacity, are suitable for driving on
and authorised for truck traffic by the owner. The driver must satisfy himself of the
above before entering these areas. The truck must enter lifts with the load in front and
must take up a position which does not allow it to come into contact with the walls of
the lift shaft. Persons riding in the lift with the forklift truck must only enter the lift after
the truck has come to a rest and must leave the lift before the truck. The driver must
ensure that the loading ramp / dock cannot move or come loose during loading /
unloading.
Type of loads to be carried
The operator must make sure that the load is in a satisfactory condition. Loads must
always be positioned safely and carefully. Use suitable precautions to prevent parts
of the load from tipping or falling down. Prevent liquid loads from sloshing out.
Inflammable liquids (e.g. fused metal etc.) may only be transported with suitable
auxiliary equipment. Contact the manufacturer's customer service department.
