Dutch term

"Handrem met koppeling op besturing aandrijving."

Dutch to English Tech/Engineering Automotive / Cars & Trucks forklift trucks
Another "technische beveiliging" from a Health and Safety Instruction sheet, this time for forklift trucks.

No more context than this one sentence.

Although I vaguely (:)) understand the concept, I am clueless as to how this should be translated.

TIA!

handbrake interlocked with drive controls

also a bit of a guess (I agree with Harry's comments), but a bit of googling indicates that a variety of safety interlocks are built into forklift trucks

neutral writeaway : is this a machine translation? /it's only the 2nd time I've seen you and your translation on It-En was really incorrect.

No it's not. You seem to pop up everywhere I go. Do you know me or is this some kind of a joke?

Dutch term (edited): handrem met koppeling op besturing aandrijving

parking brake/clutch on drive (train)

The question really is whether there's a parking brake and a clutch or a single parking brake clutch incorporated in the drive train.

I expect these remarks to be telegram style findings of a risk assessment. Unfortunately for the translator that requires quite some guesswork ;-)
