required for normal operation of the
trailer. However, you should make
sure that you are wearing suitable
clothes for the weather conditions
when working on the trailer.
– Wear safety boots when extending
and retracting the drive-on ramps and
when opening and closing the bed.
You could otherwise injure yourself
severely.
– Wear gloves to protect your hands
when opening and closing flaps,
when using winches or if you are
working with hydraulic oil.
– Wear protective glasses when chang-
ing the hydraulic oil. You will find fur-
ther information on handling the
hydraulic oil on the safety data
sheets.

2.5 Trailer

– Never use a defective trailer as it con-
ceals unforeseeable risks.
– The rear lights of the trailer must be
visible at all times. If the rear lights
are covered by a protruding load,
open flaps or dirt, please mount a
clearly visible rear lighting unit to
mark the end of the trailer.
– Ensure that the safety of traffic is not
impaired during loading and unload-
ing. Use additional signaling equip-
ment like signs and barriers to
guarantee safety.
