Transporting packages
Packages that are not attached to pallets can be transported with
a forklift or forklift truck under the following conditions:
The forklift or forklift truck must be configured appropriately for
the weight of the transport units.
The operator must be authorized to operate the forklift.
Attachment:
1.
Place sufficiently long and wide extensions (e.g. of wood or
metal) between the forks and the package so that the weight
is distributed on the support surface.
2.
Drive in the forks, with extensions if needed, far enough that
they protrude on the opposite side.
3.
If there is an eccentric center of gravity, ensure that the
package cannot tip.
4.
Lift the package and start the transport.
