SAMPLE
CAPACITY PLATE

The information shown

on this sample plate

does not apply to your

truck.

CAPACITY PLATE INFORMATION

The capacity plate is on the overhead guard.  It contains:
• Truck serial number
• Capacity information (load, load center and lift height)
• Truck type (a fire safety rating)
• Truck weight with battery (does not include load)
• Attachment information (if any)

READING YOUR CAPACITY PLATE

Capacity may be reduced as lift height       increases.

For example:  On the sample plate, 1815kg (4000 lb)
can be lifted to 4775mm (188 in).  But above 4775 (188),
to 5230 (206), capacity is reduced from 1815 (4000) to
1745 (3850).

Capacity is reduced as load center       increases.

For example:  On the sample plate, 1815kg (4000 lb) can
be lifted if the load center is 600mm (24 in).  But if the
load center is increased to 750mm (30), capacity is reduced
from 1815 (4000) to 1450 (3200).

Caution:

You may not increase capacity if load center is

less than shown on your capacity plate.

Know the Hazards

TRUCK TYPE

Some truck types are not permitted in areas where there

are fire hazards.  Watch for marked areas.  For example:

You must not drive a type E or ES truck into an area

restricted to EE or EX trucks.

TRUCK WEIGHT

Dockboards, elevators and some floors have limited

capacity. Check your capacity plate for the weight of

your truck.  Remember to add the weight of the load you

have on the forks.  Make certain you use the correct units

of measure.

ATTACHMENT DATA

If an attachment on your truck does not match the

information given on your capacity plate, don't operate

your truck.  Your capacity plate may be wrong. Report

the problem to your supervisor.

Note: 

ANSI B56.1 requires that all data be shown first in

Metric units and then USA units

.
