IMPLEMENTATION OF MODIFICATIONS
■
Only in the event that the truck manufacturer is no
longer in business and there is no successor in the
interest to the business, the user may arrange for
a modification or alteration to a powered industrial
truck, provided, however, that the user shall:
a) arrange for the modification or alteration to
be designed, tested and implemented by an
engineer(s) expert in industrial trucks and their
safety;
b) maintain a permanent record of the design,
test(s) and implementation of the modification or
alteration;
c) approve and make appropriate changes to the
capacity plate(s), decals, tags and instruction
handbook;
d) affix a permanent and readily visible label to
the truck stating the manner in which the truck
has been modified or altered together with the
date of the modification or alteration, and the
name and address of the organization that
accomplished the tasks.
