Know the Hazards

KNOW YOUR LOAD

Do not exceed the capacity shown on your truck's capacity
plate.  Be careful when handling long, high or wide loads.
Do not handle unstable loads.

EXCEEDING TRUCK CAPACITY CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT

Know the capacity of your truck as shown on your capacity
plate.  Make certain you use the correct units of measure.
Pay attention to:
• Weight of load
• Load center
• Lift height

HYDRAULIC OPERATIONS CAN AFFECT STABILITY

Capacities given on your capacity plate are for loads that
are centered and level.  Be extra careful when tilting a
load.  (This also applies to other accessories or attachments
your truck may have, such as sideshift, carton clamp,
push-pull, etc.)

CENTER THE LOAD

Your truck could tip over if a load is shifted to the front
or side of a pallet or container.  Make sure your load is
evenly distributed and centered over the forks.

Capacity & Load Center

11   Capacity & Load Center

WHAT IS YOUR TRUCK CAPACITY?

Capacity is the load (including pallet or
container) that can be lifted to a given height
at a given load center.  See the capacity plate on
your truck.  Make certain you use the correct units
of measure.

WHAT IS LOAD CENTER?

Load center is the distance from the load backrest or
vertical face of the fork to the center of an evenly
distributed load.

LOADS MUST BE EVENLY DISTRIBUTED

Your truck could tip over, in any direction, if a load
is shifted to the front or side of a pallet or container.
