GENERAL REGULATIONS FOR USE
When transporting a load, keep the accessory at a maximum height of 300mm from the ground.
Where possible avoid winding roads, otherwise, move cautiously and very slowly.
Respect the limits set by the load diagram that refers to the accessory in use. If at a later stage, a different
accessory is purchased with respect to that delivered with the machine, the user is kindly asked to contact
the Manufacturer in order to obtain the correct load diagram.
If the material to be moved is on a supporting base, before lifting it with the material, ensure that it is in
good condition and can withstand the weight to be lifted.
Never lift a slung load with the forks, but rather use the specific accessory; under the weight of the load,
the edges of the forks may in fact cut the lifting ropes, thus causing a loss of material. In any case, never lift
a load using only one fork arm.
When transporting a suspended load from a rope, do not allow it to swing excessively, otherwise, stop
immediately and wait for the load to stabilise before proceeding.
When transporting a load with a mobile centre of gravity, such as a liquid, avoid sudden
acceleration and
braking. Be very careful when the route has a slight gradient.
Immediately after use, place the accessory in a horizontal position and if it seems unstable, prop it with
suitable and safe supports to make it stable.
It is forbidden to operate the machine under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs and/or medicine, which
alters the physical and mental condition.
