3.2

Steering

Use the steering wheel to steer the truck
outside narrow aisles.
The position of the drive wheel is shown
in the display unit (13).
3.3

Braking

NOTICE The truck's braking characteristics depend largely on the ground conditions.
The driver must take this into consideration when handling the truck.
The truck can be braked in three different ways:
- with the operating brake
- with the foot switch.
- with the EMERGENCY DISCONNECT switch
3.3.1 Braking with the operating brake
While travelling, set the travel direction switch to the zero position or the opposite trav-
el direction; the traction current controller will cause the truck to brake.
3.3.2 Braking with the foot switch
Releasing the foot switch causes the truck to brake.
NOTICE This type of braking can only be used as a parking brake and not as an
operating brake.
3.3.3 Braking with the EMERGENCY DISCONNECT switch
Applying the EMERGENCY DISCONNECT switch will cause the truck to brake to a
halt.
IMPORTANT The EMERGENCY DISCONNECT switch must only be used in emergency
situations.
