6.4 Parking the truck securely
WARNING!
Switching off an LPG truck under ground level areas could result in explosions.
LPG is heavier than air. An explosive LPG/air mixture could therefore form under
ground level areas without sufficient ventilation.
X
LPG trucks may only be switched off in ground level rooms or higher and providing
they are adequately ventilated. They must not be switched off near to cellar doors
and entry points, hollows, drains, drain inlets or other recesses below the parked
truck.
WARNING!
An unsecured truck can cause accidents
Parking the truck on an incline, without the brakes applied or with a raised load / load
handler is dangerous and is strictly prohibited.
X
Always park the truck on a level surface. In special cases the truck may need to be
secured with wedges.
XAlways fully lower the mast and load handler.
XTilt the mast forward.
XAlways apply the parking brake button before parking the truck.
XChoose a place to park where no other people are at risk of injury from lowering
forks.
XDo not park and abandon a truck on an incline.
Parking the Truck Securely (DFG)
When you leave the truck it must be parked securely
even if you only intend to leave it for a short time.
Procedure
• Turn the travel direction switch to idle (centre
position).
• Press the "F5" button in the display: The brake shoe
that appears in the "parking brake" icon (94)
changes position to the right.
• Lower the load completely and position it
horizontally.
NOTE
XDo not switch the engine off from full
charge. Instead, let it run for a short
while to allow the temperature to
compensate.
• Turn the key in the key switch (88) to the "0" position and remove the key.
