regular maintenance on the truck according to the Lubrication
diagram (page 17). Only qualified service technicians with the

Safety regulations with maintenance
work
• Always remove the emergency stop key and be very careful
not to damage the emergency stop if the truck must be turned
upside-down for service/maintenance.
• Keep the area where you carry out the service clean. Oil or
water makes the floor slippery.
NOTE!
Extreme cleanliness should be observed at all times when
working with the hydraulics. Dismantled parts should be clean
and inspected carefully. Always replace gaskets after disman-
tling.
• Store and dispose of changed oil in accordance with local
directives.
• Do not release solvents and the like, which are used for
cleaning/washing, into drains that are not intended for this
purpose. Follow the local directives that apply for disposal.
• Remove the emergency stop key prior to performing any
maintenance work on the truck and also if the battery hood
needs to be opened. Keep in mind that the battery poles are
not protected.

grinding area through sand-blasting or the use of a paint strip-
