N - PICKING UP A LOAD ON THE
GROUND
Â
Approach the load with the telescopic handler per-
pendicular to the load, with the boom retracted and
the forks in a horizontal position (fig. N1).
Â
Adjust the fork spread and centering to best con-
nect with the load (fig. N2).
Â
Never lift a load on a single fork.
Â
Move the telescopic handler forward slowly (1)
and bring the forks to stop in front of the load (fig.
N3). If necessary, slightly lift the boom (2) while
picking up the load.
Â
Bring the load into the transport position.
Â
Tilt the load back far enough to ensure stability
(loss of load while braking or going downhill).
FOR A NON-PALLETIZED LOAD:
Â
Tilt the carriage (1) forward and move the tele-
scopic handler slowly forward (2), to insert the
forks under the load (fig. N4) (block the load if
necessary).
Â
Continue to move the telescopic handler forward
(2) tilting the carriage (3) (fig. N4) rearward to
position the load on the forks and check the load's
longitudinal and lateral stability.
O - PICKING UP A HIGH LOAD
Â
Ensure that the forks will easily pass under the
load.
Â
Lift and extend the boom (1) (2) until the forks are
level with the load, moving the telescopic handler
(3) forward if necessary (fig. O1), moving very
slowly and carefully.
WARNING
Beware of the risks of trapping or pinching
limbs when manually adjusting the forks.
WARNING
DO NOT raise the boom until you have verified
the side-to-side attitude of the telescopic han-
dler.
Make sure that the following operations can
be performed with good visibility.
