WARNING!
Risk of accident when using a work cage
When working with a work cage, high dynamic forces act on the truck, which can
impair its operational stability. When using a work cage, a minimum capacity of
1500 kg is required at the lift height of the work cage.
u
Use the capacity plate to ensure sufficient capacity at the planned lift height, see
page 31.
Lifting passengers with a work cage may be permitted in some countries. This must
be verified by the operating company. The following (non-exhaustive) list contains
example standards with further information.
