LOAD HANDLING
1-26
Do not pick up loads from other truck
Do not pick up loads from raised forks of other truck. This might
cause an off-centered load or the load to fall off.
Do not hold loads on the forks by hand
Do not hold loads on the forks by hand. If the truck moves
unexpectedly, the load might fall off, getting the person caught
under it.
Make loads in contact with load backrest
Insert the forks into the pallet as far as possible to make the loads
in contact with the load backrest.
Do not stack loads too high on forks
Do not stack loads on forks in such a way that the top of loads
exceeds the load backrest height; otherwise, loads might fall on
the part of the operator, and in the worst case lead to a serious
injury or death.
Do not lift unstable loads
Do not handle unstable loads. When handling loose loads, make
sure they are stable enough before lifting.
Use special caution when stacking or unstacking loads
When stacking or unstacking loads, stabilize them with ropes or
others, to prevent from falling off.
Use pallets and skids strong enough
Pallets and skids must be strong enough to withstand the weight
of loads. Use of a damaged pallet or skid might let the load fall off
the forks.
Use extreme caution when handling long or bulky
loads
Lift and lower the load carefully so as not to hit it against
something around the truck. Keep the load as low as possible.
Be careful when turning the truck, to prevent it from moving out of
position or falling off.
Be alert for overhead hazards
Use caution not to let the mast or overhead guard contact
overhead power cables, piping, sprinklers or overhead cross
beams. If part of the truck comes in contact with them, the load
might fall off the forks or the truck tip over. Remember that the
mast height becomes higher when the forks are raised.
