Limits Of Machine Use - Snorkel SR9244 Operator And Maintenance Manual

ATTENTION!! When taking a load placed at a height to put it somewhere else
(again at a height), you may be tempted to move, especially in the event of a short
distance, without lowering the load and then perform the movement with the
boom extended and the load at the top.
DO NOT DO IT! Even a small movement, especially on uneven ground, performed
with the load placed at the top, can generate machine oscillations and cause it to overturn.

LIMITS OF MACHINE USE

Never lift or transport a load that exceeds the nominal capacity of the machine or the accessory.
Before lifting the load, check its weight and its centre of gravity. The load diagram in the cabin refers to
lifting a load with the forks, whose centre of gravity is at distance D (shown on the diagram) with respect to
the edge of the fork.
If the load has a mobile centre of gravity, with liquids for example, move with precaution as it is not
possible to determine a precise rule.
