Figure 69. 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 12,000 lbs. The
matched pair or set of forks used on this forklift should have
total load ratings which equal or exceed 12,000 lbs. When the
load rating of the forklift differs from the load capacity of the
forks, the lower value becomes the overall load capacity.
Standard Carriage Operation
The standard carriage uses manually adjustable forks and can
be tilted up or down by using the thumb stick on the control
handle.
