Capacity Plate   14

Know the Hazards

Caution:  

You may not increase capacity if load 

center is less than shown on your capacity plate. 
Truck capacity must be reduced by operator 

weight over 100kg (220)lbs.

Note: 

 ANSI/ITSDF B56.1 requires that all data be 

shown first in Metric units and then USA units. 

BEFORE AUGUST 2017: READING YOUR CAPACITY PLATE

Capacity may be reduced as lift height      increases.  

For example: On the sample 

plate, 1350kg (3000 lb) can be lifted to 6095mm (240 in). But above 6095 (240), to 7010 

(276), capacity is reduced from 1350 (3000) to 1125 (2500).

Capacity is reduced as load center      increases.  

For example: On the sample plate, 

1350kg (3000 lb) can be lifted if the load center is 600mm (24 in). But if the load center 

is increased to 900 (36), capacity is reduced from 1350 (3000) to 900 (2000).

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.

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.

ATTACHMENT DATA

If an attachment on your truck does not match the

information given here on your capacity plate, don't

operate your truck. Your capacity plate may be 

wrong. Report the problem to your supervisor.
