Warning
Never make any modifications to the truck that may affect the capacity
rating. Only options and attachments approved by Combilift Ltd. may be
installed on the truck. Other modifications will void the warranty and can
cause situations to arise that may lead to serious injury or death.
To read the load chart the weight of the load (in kilograms or pounds) and the load
centre (in millimetres or inches) must be ascertained. These values can then be
compared to the values on the load chart to determine if it is safe to lift the load and to
what height it can be lifted.
It is the responsibility of the operator to determine that the weight of the load to be
handled is not greater than the capacity shown on the load chart. The operator must
not handle any load that is greater than the capacity shown on the trucks load chart.
Methods of determining the weight of the load:
Weight is listed on pallet wrapper
Weight is listed on bill of lading
Weight is determined by multiplying the weight of each small container/bag by
the number of small containers/bags on a pallet. Each small container should
be marked with its weight.
Ask the relevant supervisor when in doubt.
Always make sure the load is flush against the front vertical face of the forks and that
loads that are unbalanced horizontally are loaded with the heaviest side of the load
nearest to the truck.
Always make sure that loads that are unbalanced vertically are loaded with the
heaviest side of the load nearest to the ground where possible.

Attachments
Fixed attachments
to the forks or fork carriage affect the trucks capacity rating.
When the factory, dealer, or distributor installs a fixed attachment approved by
Combilift a modified load chart shall be attached inside the operating enclosure. The
modified load chart identifies the type of attachment and the capacity ratings on the
load chart will be modified accordingly.
Removable attachments
to the forks or fork carriage affect the trucks capacity
rating. When the factory, dealer, or distributor supplies a removable attachment
approved by, Combilift Ltd. an additional load chart shall be attached inside the
operating enclosure. The additional load chart identifies the type of attachment and
the changes to the rated capacity when the attachment is in use.
