LOAD CAPACITY
The further the load center is from the
backrest, the lower the load capacity. The
load center must also be no higher than
that specified above the lifting surface
(Top side of forks). For example, a load
capacity of 2200 pounds with a load cen-
ter of 24 inches means that the truck can
be used to lift 2200 pounds only when the
load’s center of gravity is no more
than 24 inches from the face of the forks
or 24 inches above the top side of the
forks. Note that a truck under-going speed
changes is less stable than a standing
truck. If you are not sure that the truck can
lift a certain load, consult your supervisor
or the designated authority.
An overload can cause machine damage
and stability loss or tipping of the lift truck.
