their normal working position on the platform.

site conditions or if requested by the user of the platform.
Load Capacity Charts
Warning
DO NOT exceed rated capacity. Any attempt
to lift or carry loads in excess of those shown
on the load capacity charts could cause tele-
handler tip over, loss of load, or structural
damage which could result in death, serious
injury, or property damage.
All load ratings shown on load capacity charts are based on
the telehandler being on firm, level ground, the forks being
evenly positioned on the carriage, the load being centered
on the forks, properly sized tires properly inflated and/or
foam filled, and the telehandler being in good operating
condition.
Load capacity charts, located on the left side of the dash
panel, are provided to assist the operator in determining how
to safely operate the boom to pick up, carry, and set down a
load with the telehandler, including what angle, how high,
and how far to extend the boom.
Figure 101. Load Capacity Chart
Using Load Capacity Charts
The telehandler includes two (2) indicators to assist the
operator for accurately using the load capacity charts. These
indicators are the Boom Extend Letters and the Boom Angle
Indicator.
The boom extend letters are located on the left side of the
boom and visible to the operator as the boom is extended.
These letters indicate boom extension as it corresponds to the
load capacity charts.
NOTE:
For example, when letter “A” first appears, the boom
extension corresponds to the arc of line “A” throughout all the
load capacity charts.
Figure 102. Boom Extend Letters
The boom angle indicator is located on the left side of the
boom and is visible from the operator’s seat. Use the boom
angle indicator to determine the boom angle when referring
to load capacity charts.
Know the weight of the load you are lifting or be able to
calculate the weight of the load before attempting to lift it.
The load weight is a crucial factor in correctly reading and
using the load chart. Exceeding the rated capacities of the
telehandler could cause telehandler tip over, loss of load,
or structural damage which could result in death, serious
injury, or property damage.
Warning
NOTE: The boom angle indicator is a plumb arrow with
angular graduations from -50 to +700.
