Abstract

An industrial truck comprises a driver standing platform and at least two side walls forming an entrance to the driver standing platform. One of the at least two side walls comprises a support for a transverse standing position of an operator. The support for the transverse standing position extends along a first plane. A control unit is positioned opposite the entrance and is configured to be operated by the operator while standing on the driver standing platform. A back section is positioned on one of the at least two side walls and configured to extend into the entrance and comprises a support for an oblique front standing position of the operator. The support for the oblique front standing position extends along a second plane and the back section is positioned at an angle relative to the support for the transverse standing position.
