5 USE RULES 5 USE RULES Before using the equipment, check the tightness of the pipes and the correctness of assembly and connection by performing about ten preliminary operations. When using the equipment, it is necessary to follow the instructions listed below: 1.
Page 29
5 USE RULES Every ATIB attachments are projected and constructed according to a load positioned (as regards its centre of gravity) at a certain distance from vertical part of the fork. If you need to increase the distance of the center of gravity as regards vertical part of the fork you have to reduce the weight of the load.
Page 30
5 USE RULES The affordable stroke can compromise the stability of the forklift. To check the nominal capacity of the combination forklift – attachment ask the producer of the forklift. The condition of the soil, the quickness of the movement of the load and the lifting height can affect the hold of the load and must be taken into consideration as regards specific occasions.
5 USE RULES 5.1 Integral sideshift It is the one most frequently used in the ROTATOR 360° TYPE 301 and uses the same cylinders that translate the forks. The stroke depends on the opening and will be equal to zero in maximum opening and minimum closing. Since the stroke of the equipment can be...
