Risk of accidents due to changing transmission direction whilst driving!
If whilst driving in one direction you select a gear for the opposite direction,
the transmission shifts into the neutral position. In this position, you cannot
accelerate the truck crane, even in an emergency, and the engine retarder
does not work.
– Pressing the accelerator slightly: Upshifting at low engine speed
– Pressing the accelerator harder: Upshifting at high engine speed
