Driving lanes and work areas: Only such lanes and routes that are specially allo-
cated for truck traffic may be used. Unauthorized persons must stay away from indus-
tial truck work areas. Loads must be stored at places specially provided for this pur-
pose only.
Driving conduct: The travelling speed must be adapted to the prevailing local con-
ditions. The truck must be driven at slow speed when negotiating bends or narrow
passages, when passing through swing doors and at blind spots. The driver must al-
ways observe an adequate braking distance between the industrial truck and the ve-
hicle in front and he must be in control of his truck at all times. Sudden stopping (ex-
cept in emergencies), rapid U-turns and overtaking at dangerous or blind spots is not
permitted. It is forbidden to lean out of or reach beyond the working and operating ar-
ea.
Obey all traffic regulations including applicable speed restrictions on the premises.
Right hand traffic applies under normal traffic conditions. Maintain a safety clearance
distance to the truck in front in relation to truck speed; always be the master of the
truck.
Yield the right of way to pedestrians, rescue vehicles such as ambulances and fire
fighting vehicles, and other (powered) industrial trucks is forbidden.
Overtaking or passing other industrial trucks driving in the same direction at cross-
ings, in a blind angle or in other hazardous spots.
Reduce the speed or stop and sound the horn at lateral aisles and other places with
restricted view.
Cross railroad tracks at an oblique angle if possible. When stopping short of a railroad
track, maintain a clearance of a least 2 m/2.2 yards (6.6 ft) from the track.
Always face in the direction of travel.
Keep an unobstructed view on the travel path and observe other traffic, persons and
safety clearances.
Drive with the load towards the rear if it obstructs your view to the front.
Operate the industrial truck at a speed that allows the truck to be safely stopped under
all conditions.
Drive with the load lifting device or load in the lowest position possible. Lift the load
for stacking purposes only. This does not apply to industrial trucks that are intended
normally to be operated with the load or load-engaging means elevated.
Accelerate, stop, turn or reverse smoothly to avoid slippage of the load and/or tipping
or turnover of the industrial truck.
Do not indulge in stunt driving or horseplay.
Be cautious and reduce the speed on wet and slippery floors.
Industrial trucks shall not enter elevators without a special permit. Do not exceed the
elevator's load capacity. Slowly approach the elevator and enter it squarely as soon
as the elevator car has reached a horizontal position. Set the controls to the neutral
position, shut off power and, if equipped, set the floor or wheel lock(s) as soon as the
industrial truck is in the elevator car. It is recommended that all other persons leave
the elevator before the industrial truck enters or leaves the elevator car.
