FOR YOUR INFORMATION
Driving on the footboards is permitted only if the regulations of the country where the vehicle is used
allow it.
The RCV body (hereinafter referred to as the vehicle) is constructed in accordance with the
current state of technology and safe in operation. Due to the need to perform various
operations, the vehicle has, however, such places and parts that cannot be secured, without
limiting the functionality and serviceability. Therefore, to protect personnel and the vehicle, it
is necessary to comply with the safety rules.
oFor the vehicle to be completely safe, the driver/operator cannot be colour blind,
because the operating elements are marked with different colours. The driver/operator
must also not have hearing impairment, as he must hear alarm and signal sounds.
oAll safety devices installed on the body must be used for their intended purpose and
their correct operation must be checked before each start-up.
