2. Safety
Securing the vehicle
Rules for securing the vehicle:
• Set the parking brake.
• Only extend the rotating stanchions to the point where the axle
still assists in bearing the weight (The crank is located in
the bottle container).
• If the ground is soft, place supports under the rotating stanchions.
• Use the wheel chocks to secure the wheels. They are located in
the gas bottle container.
A spring brake on the brake lever ensures that the
brakes will not disengage by themselves, even if the
rotation direction is reversed from driving forwards to
backwards. If you have activated automatic reverse,
the brake lever must be moved beyond the dead
centre position to its nal position.
Choosing a parking place
Rules for choosing a parking place:
• The parking place should be as horizontal as possible.
• Check to see that the entry step is positioned horizontally (impor-
tant for refrigerator function).
• Balance the lengthwise slant with the front landing wheel.
• Balance the crosswise slant by laying appropriate boards or a
ramp under a wheel.
2.7 After the drive
Do not use the rotating stanchions to compensate for
any dierences in height.
