LOAD CAPACITY

Do not overload truck. Check capacity plate for load
weight and load center information.
The load capacity depends on the load center. The
load maximum capacity listed on the capacity plate
assumes a uniform load whose center is at half the
length of the fork and centered between the forks.
The maximum load capacity is reduced when the
load center exceeds half the length of the forks or is
not centered between the forks. The fork length and
wheelbase must be adequate for the skid or bin to be
handled. (See Figure 3)
NOTE: A truck undergoing speed changes is less
stable than a standing truck. If you are not sure
that the truck can lift a certain load, consult your
supervisor or the designated authority.
