Personal injury and material damage from unsecured load
Braking, accelerating, taking bends or swerving causes forces on
the cargo. An unsecured load can topple over or slip. This can
result in personal injury and material damage.
▶ Secure all objects in the cargo area against tipping and
slipping.
▶ Secure cargo inside the van racking with a tight fit.
▶ Use dividers and anti-slip mats inside drawers and shelves.
▶ Check that the load is secure before setting off every time.
Observe the applicable laws in accordance with StVO §22,23 and
StVZO §30,31 relating to load securing.
Check the following elements regularly for wear or damage.
• Car body,
• Floor lashing point,
• Restraint pole,
• Lashing rails,
• Fixing rails on the roof beam.
Interval
• Before starting work
• After any unusual loads
e.g. emergency braking.
Care
Use a damp cloth to clean the restraint pole at regular intervals.
Avoid using highly corrosive cleaning agents to prevent damage
to the product.
