CAPACITY PLATE INFORMATION

The capacity plate is on the power unit
cover.  It contains:
• 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 (A) increases.
For example:  On the sample plate, 1360kg (3000 lb) can
be lifted to 3910mm (154 in).  But above 3910 (154), to
4520 (178), capacity is reduced from 1360 (3000) to
1225 (2700).

Capacity is reduced as load center (B) increases.
For example:  On the sample plate, 1360kg (3000 lb) can
be lifted if the load center is 600mm (24 in).  But if the
load center is increased to 685 (27), capacity is reduced
from 1360 (3000) to 1200 (2650).

CAUTION

You may not increase capacity if
load center is less than shown on
your capacity plate.

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 in 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.
