Operating Procedures Operating Procedures Know Your Lift Truck weight. The location of the center of gravity of both the lift truck and the load is also a factor. This basic principle is The fork lift truck is designed to pick up and move materi- used to pick up a load.

Operating Procedures load; the height to which the load is raised; the amount of forward or backward tilt; and the dynamic forces created when the truck is moving. These dynamic forces are caused by things like accelera- tion, braking, turning, and operating on uneven surfaces or on an incline.
Operating Procedures Capacity (Weight and Load Center) The capacity of the lift truck is shown on the nameplate. See Figure 8. The capacity is listed in terms of weight and load center. The weight is specified in kilograms or pounds. The load center is specified in millimeters or inches.

Operating Procedures If a lift truck is used to elevate a worker, a safety platform must be attached to the forks and carriage. The platform must be specifically built to meet or exceed the requirements of ANSI/ITSDF B56.1. It must have a solid floor with a surface to prevent the feet of the worker from slipping, hand rail, 2.
Operating Procedures 4. Elevators - Do not drive a lift truck into an elevator 3. Move the control handle downward away from the unless authorized to do so. Approach the elevator slowly. upright position. This will energize the electrical system. The brakes are automatically applied when the steering After the elevator is properly lev- handle is in the extreme upper or lower position.
Operating Procedures Steering (Turning) WARNING Do not turn on an incline. To reduce the possibility of a WARNING tipover, a lift truck must not be driven across an Travel slowly when turning. Lift trucks can tip over incline. even at very slow speeds. The combination of speed and the sharpness of a turn can cause a tipover.
Operating Procedures When turning the lift truck from a wide aisle into a nar- row aisle, start the turn as close to the opposite stock pile as tailswing will permit. This action permits the lift truck to enter the narrow aisle going straight ahead.
Operating Procedures operator must reduce the load so that the lift truck will Lifting, Lowering, and Tilting remain stable. WARNING 2. Handle only stable loads. A load can have unstable The lift truck can tip over forward when the load is items that can easily shift and fall on someone.

Operating Procedures lower. Be sure to return the screw to the original position once the manual lowering process is complete by slowly turning the screw clockwise until it stops. Tighten the man- ual override screw to 36 in. lb (+0.7/−0). Figure 10.
Operating Procedures Removing a Load From a Stack under the load. The forks must support at least two-thirds (2/3) of the length of the load. WARNING Make sure that the load is centered between the forks. Move carefully and smoothly when the load is raised Make sure that the forks do not extend past the load so that over a stack.
Operating Procedures 4. When a load is put on the floor, tilt the load forward to a vertical position and lower the load. Tilt the load forward to permit smooth removal of the forks. Carefully move the lift truck backward to remove the forks from under the load. Putting a Load on a Stack A.

Operating Procedures NOTE: Not every load can be lifted using only the forks of a lift truck. Some loads will require a special attachment. When lifting round objects, use a block behind the object. 2. When traveling, keep the load lowered, against the car- Tilt the forks forward so that they can slide along the floor riage and tilted back.
Page 54
Operating Procedures 4. Travel with the load trailing and look in the direction of travel. If the lift truck must travel in a direction where visibil- ity is obstructed, a lookout helper may be required. 3. Travel with the reach mechanism retracted and the lift mechanism raised only enough to clear the ground, base arms, or obstacles.
Page 55
Operating Procedures 8. Watch clearances, especially forks, mast, and tailswing. The operator must be aware that the forks can sometimes extend beyond the front of the load. If the forks extend beyond the load, the operator can hit an object or lift another load.
Operating Procedures Highway Trucks, Railroad Cars, and Docks 5. Make sure that the railroad car brakes are set and the wheels are blocked while loading or unloading. Do this so Before operating in a highway truck or railroad car, observe that the railroad car will not move due to the movement of the following: the lift truck in and out of the railroad car.
Operating Procedures operating the attachment. See Table 1 for the operation of 1. Bring the lift truck to a stop. Fully lower the forks. Fully attachment controls. retract the forks. Tilt the forks forward. 2. Put the controls in neutral and return the control handle WARNING to the vertical position to apply the brake.
