  • Patent number: 6564906
    Abstract: There is disclosed a pickup-and-delivery vehicle having a controllable travel mechanism, which has a load-carrying means movable vertically on a lifting framework, a driver's cab movable vertically on the lifting framework together with the load-carrying means and an operating panel to be operated from the driver's cab. Separate function regions of the operating panel are designed as modules separable from one another, of which at least one in the access region of the driver's cab is repositionable between at least two operating positions from one side of the driver's cab to another side of the driver's cab and is capable of functional use in each of these operating positions.
