FASTENING THE SEAT BELT

WARNING
Danger of injuries! A damaged seat belt or which was
overstretched in an accident or whose belt holder or
attachment screws are improperly mounted, does no longer
protect you when an accident occurs. Replace the seat belt
if it is damaged or if the machine had an accident. Make
sure that the belt holder and fastening screws are in perfect
condition.
If you have not fastened your seat belt, you may be severely
injured when you have an accident!
Always fasten the seat belt before you start working and
keep it fastened when operating the machine. Make sure
when you fasten it that the belt is not twisted and that it is
in contact with your lap.
Fastening and removing the seat belt
(Automatically rewinding lap belt)
Automatic belts permit full freedom of movement when they are pulled
out slowly, but lock immediately in the event of sudden braking or
acceleration and while driving on hills or in curves.
1.
Sit down on the driver's seat and pull out the belt slowly. Then,
push the buckle - without interruption - into the catch until it locks
into place. Pull the belt to make sure that the buckle really has
locked into place.
2.
To release the belt, press the orange button. The belt rewinds
automatically.
IMPORTANT
The belt can only be pulled out after it has completely rewound.

ADJUSTING THE REAR-VIEW MIRROR

column's angle of inclination.
The angle of inclination of the steering column can be adjusted using this
