2.23: Operating Conditions

The Combilift can operate on various surfaces but the following should be
noted
 Ground Surface: Floor and road surfaces should be of adequate load
capacity, firm, smooth and level. Approaches to kerbs, railway crossings
etc. should also be firm, smooth and adequately ramped to prevent
possible displacement.
 Aisle Dimensions: Aisles should be arranged to eliminate corners,
angles, inclines, steep ramps, narrow passages and low ceilings.
 Headroom: Structures over aisles, which may be potential obstacles
should be defined and marked with a conspicuous colour. Low doorways
should be marked with their clearance limits.
 Operating in Hazardous Areas: Standard trucks are not equipped to
operate in cold stores, flammable or explosive areas, corrosive
atmospheres or areas containing a high degree of dust contamination.
 Gradients: When differences in levels exist, low gradient ramps should be
provided, having smooth, gradual level changes at top and bottom to
prevent shocks to the load or fouling of the forks. Except in emergencies,
do not turn the truck on gradients. Correct gradient procedure should be
followed at all times (see Safety Precautions) Do not park on a gradient. In
an emergency apply parking brake and chock wheels, but do not leave the
truck unattended.
