G - PICKING UP AND PUTTING DOWN A HIGH LOAD ON STABILISERS
Depending on the model of lift truck
In no circumstances should you raise the boom if you have not checked the transverse attitude of the lift truck
e
( INSTRUCTIONS FOR HANDLING A LOAD: D - TRANSVERSE ATTITUDE OF THE LIFT TRUCK).
REMINDER: Make sure that the following operations can be performed with good
e
visibility (
D - VISIBILITY).
The stabilisers are used to optimise the lift truck's lifting performance (
COMMAND AND CONTROL INSTRUMENTS).
POSITIONING THE STABILISERS WITH THE FORKS IN TRANSPORT POSITION (UNLADEN
AND LADEN)
- Set the forks in transport position in front of the elevation.
- Stay far enough away to allow the boom to be raised.
- Apply the parking brake and place the forward/reverse selector in neutral.
- Put the two stabilisers on the ground and lift the two front wheels of the lift truck
(fig. G1), making sure the lift truck has transverse attitude.
RAISING THE STABILISERS WITH THE FORKS IN TRANSPORT POSITION (UNLADEN AND
LADEN)
- Raise both stabilizers fully and at the same time.
LOWERING THE STABILISERS WITH BOOM UP (UNLADEN AND LADEN)
This operation must be exceptional and performed with great care.
- Raise the boom and retract the telescopes completely.
- Bring the lift truck into position in front of the elevation (fig. G2) moving very
slowly and carefully.
- Apply the parking brake and place the forward/reverse selector in neutral.
- Move the stabilizers very slowly and gradually as soon as they are close to the
ground or in contact with it.
- Lower the two stabilisers and lift the two front wheels of the lift truck (fig. G3).
During this operation, transverse attitude must be permanently maintained: the
bubble in the level must be kept between the two lines.
SETTING THE STABILISERS WITH THE BOOM UP (UNLADEN AND LADEN)
