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

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, stable and centered over the forks.

HYDRAULIC OPERATIONS CAN AFFECT STABILITY

Be careful when using reach, tilt, sideshift or other
operations.  Remember that anytime the forks move, the
load moves also.  This can affect stability.  Perform all
hydraulic operations smoothly.  (This also applies to any
attachments your truck may have.)

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 forks 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.
