G
Danger of overturning by the superstructure slewing whilst driving the
truck crane!
Always secure the superstructure before driving the rigged truck crane to
prevent it slewing. Slewing the superstructure whilst driving the truck
crane increases the risk of overturning!
S
Risk of damage to the tyres!
You may only drive the truck crane if the tyres are at the prescribed
pressure level.
Never reduce the tyre pressure in order to increase the tyres' bearing
surface!
G
Risk of accidents due to excessively high wind speeds!
You may not drive the rigged truck crane if the wind speed exceeds the
maximum permissible values specified in the
Lifting capacity table. In this
case, you must bring the truck crane into a secure state.
