4.2 Operator
Only persons who have had a thorough (internal) theoretical and practical training for driving the V-
move L, are allowed to drive with the V-move L.
The training programme should cover:
-the application possibilities and the limitations
-the control and operating components
-the safety regulations
-daily and periodical maintenance
The operator must be fully familiar with the content of this user manual.
People could receive or cause serious injury, if the V-move L is operated by;
-unauthorized persons
-persons younger than 16 years of age
-persons of whom it may be expected that they are not (sufficiently) aware of the
dangers of the V-move L
4.3 Responsibility of the operator
Operators must strictly observe the safety regulations, which are included in chapter 3, and the same
applies to the other rules of conduct elsewhere in this user manual.
4.4 Inspection prior to putting into operation
In addition to good maintenance, the operator of the V-move L must pay attention to the following
aspects after each work period.
- check whether there is any damage on the outside of the vehicle
- check the tow eye and tow pin or coupling point for bends or damage
- check whether the batteries are sufficiently charged
- drive forward and backward and check the operation of the brake.
- check, while driving slowly, the full manoeuvrability of the V-move L
- check the jam safety on the steering handle by pressing the safety switch (2, fig. 2),
the V-move L should not start in that case.
If you establish a fault, or if you have any doubts concerning the operation of the V-move L you must
immediately report this to your supervisor or the maintenance personnel.

- Make sure you keep a good view on the path that you are driving, keep an eye on traffic and
people and observe the safety regulations.
- Caution! Hazard of serious injury due to unwanted movements on slopes as result of insuffi-
cient traction force and brake force of the V-move L.
- Never drive onto a slope or another obstacle at an angle or crosswise.
- Only ever drive on and off a slope at a right angle.
- The V-move L may also tip over if the bends are taken at a speed that is too high.
Maximum slope angle, with / without load 4% / 12 %
Passengers may not be taken along with the V-move L and towed vehicle.
