An independent structural change or addition
to the truck can compromise safety, thus inva-
lidating the EC declaration of conformity.
The EC declaration of conformity must be
carefully stored and made available to the re-
sponsible authorities.

Packaging
During delivery of the truck, certain parts are
packaged to provide protection during trans-
port. This packaging must be removed com-
pletely prior to initial start-up.
ENVIRONMENT NOTE
The packaging material must be disposed of
properly after delivery of the truck.
Disposal of components and batter-
ies
The truck is composed of different materials. If
components or batteries need to be replaced
and disposed of, they must be:
●
disposed of,
●
treated or
●
recycled in accordance with regional and
national regulations.
NOTE
The documentation provided by the battery
manufacturer must be observed when dispos-
ing of batteries.
ENVIRONMENT NOTE
We recommend working with a waste man-
agement company for disposal purposes.

A gas spring enables the tiller to quickly return
to the vertical position after it is released.
Tiller
The composite construction tiller head pro-
vides excellent impact resistance.
Ergonomic, suitable for left and right-handed
operators. The push-buttons for the horn, lift-
ing and lowering can be operated using one
hand without changing grip.
The walking, lifting and lowering devices, har-
nesses and components are IP55 dust- and
water-resistant.
The anti-crush button integrated into the tiller
head protects the operator if the vehicle re-
coils.
Drive
Precise, load-independent travel.
Jolt-free starting and smooth acceleration to
maximum speed.
Simply release or turn the drive direction
switch to brake.
Booster circuit prevents the truck rolling back
when starting on a gradient.
Brake system
The electromagnetic brake with dust protec-
tion function can be used as a safety brake
and parking brake. Braking is controlled by the
drive controller: the brake's electromagnet
acts on the motor shaft and simultaneously
cuts off the power. Automatic braking is acti-
vated when the tiller is in the horizontal or ver-
tical position (end stop brake).
Battery
24V/20Ah maintenance-free industrial battery.
The display instrument displays the battery’s
remaining charge.
