Emergency repairs
The cab is tilted hydraulically using a hand pump. This pump is located at the
co-driver's side, behind the cab. The pump has a cock which can be moved to two
positions:
position to tilt the cab forwards.
position √ to tilt the cab backwards; this is also the driving position.
Tilting forward
- Apply the parking brake.
- Put the gear lever in "neutral" position.
- Close the doors.
- Turn the lever fully to the right, against the spring pressure, until it is locked in
position ; use the jack rod.
- Operate the pump so that the cab tilts forward. The cab locking mechanism
automatically releases. As soon as the cab passes its natural point of balance,
the force of gravity will gradually tilt the cab further forward without additional
pumping.
Tilting back
- Turn the lever to position √.
