warning indicator is illuminated or a gauge
shows abnormal readings, stop the forklift,
follow proper shut down tag the forklift

Load Safety

Failure to follow proper safety procedures
when lifting, lowering, and traveling with a
load could result in death, serious injury, or
property damage.
DO NOT exceed forklift capacity of 12,000 pounds. The total
rated capacity of the forks being used must equal or exceed
forklift capacity. Forks can break causing loss of load and
possible death or serious injury.
DO NOT exceed the manufacturer's rated
load for any auxiliary attachment.
attempt to lift or carry loads in excess of the
manufacturer's rated load may cause forklift
tip over, loss of load, or structural damage
which could result in death or serious injury.
Failure to keep personnel clear of the load
area while the load is being raised or low-
ered could result in death or serious injury.
DO NOT lift, swing, or move a load over any-
one or over a forklift cab.
• Review the rated load capacity of each auxiliary
attachment before performing any operation.
• Use the correct load chart and NEVER exceed specified
weights and load centers.
• DO NOT exceed the manufacturer's recommended load
capacity.
• DO NOT operate the forklift with an unsafe load
distribution.
• Adjust the load as necessary, especially for nonstandard
loads.
• Use caution when handling loose material that can fall
into the cab.
• Remove overhanging load materials, when possible,
and watch for sliding material.
• DO NOT reach a load over posts or other objects that
can enter the cab, if tipped.
• Avoid sudden stops, starts, or turns.
• Avoid carrying a swinging load. If necessary, secure
the load by attaching it to the forklift tie-downs and/
or have another person assist with safely steadying the
load.
