Safety regulations for operating mode Drive 

Routes and working areas: Only such lanes and routes that are specially allocated
for truck traffic may be used. Unauthorised third parties must stay away from the wor-
king area. Loads may only be stored at places specially provided for this purpose.

Driving the vehicle: The driver must choose a driving speed suitable for the local
conditions. The truck must be driven at slow speed when negotiating bends or narrow
passages, when passing through swing doors and at blind spots. The driver must al-
ways observe an adequate braking distance between his truck and the vehicle in front
and he must be in control of his truck at all times. Sudden stopping (except in emer-
gencies), rapid U-turns and overtaking at dangerous or blind spots is not permitted.

Visibility during driving: The driver must look into the driving direction and have a
sufficient overview of the driving route. When loads that obstruct the clear view are
transported, the truck must travel with the load at the rear. If this is not possible, a
second person must give suitable warnings.

Driving on slopes: It is not allowed to drive on ascending and decending gradients!

Driving in lifts or on loading platforms: Lifts and loading platforms must only be
used, if they are of adequate load bearing capacity, if suitable for driving on, and if
authorised by the user of the truck for truck traffic. 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 together with the truck must only enter the lift after the truck
has come safely to a standstill, and must leave the lift before the truck.

Requirements for the load to be transported: Only loads that have been securely
fastened according to the regulations may be transported. Never transport any loads
that have been stacked higher than the top of the fork carrier or the load backrest.
