Fork Ratings
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 could result in death or serious injury.
All approved forks for this forklift are marked with a maximum
load capacity rating (A). This rating is stamped on the left edge
of the fork just below the fork pivot shaft. The rating listed is in
U.S. pounds and is based upon a 24 inch load center (B). This
rating specifies the maximum load capacity that the individual
fork can safely carry at a maximum load center of 24 inches.
Figure 66. Fork Ratings
(A) Maximum Load Capacity Rating (B) 24 inch Load Center
Because forks are always used in multiples, the total rating
of any combination of forks will be the sum of their rated
capacity. Other than block forks, all forks should be used in
matched pairs. Block forks should be used in matched sets.
The maximum load capacity for this forklift is 8,000 lbs. The
matched pair or set of forks used on this forklift should have
total load ratings which equal or exceed 8,000 lbs. When the
load rating of the forklift differs from the load capacity of the
forks, the lower value becomes the overall load capacity.
DO NOT use attachments that are corroded
excessively.
