Section 5. Operating Your Lift Truck
Load Handling
Stacking a Load
Step Procedure View
1
Drive forward slowly while aligning
the load squarely with the stack
2
Raise the load as the lift truck
approaches the stack.
3
Drive forward slowly until the load
is almost touching the stack. The
leading edge and sides of the load
pallet should be lined up with the
near edge and side of the load or
rack on which you are stacking.
4
Stop close to the stack and raise
the load high enough to clear the
top surface of the stack. Position
the load slowly so that it aligns
with the load or rack beneath it.
Use care not to move or damage
nearby loads.
Once aligned, tilt the upright to the
vertical position and carefully lower
the load until fully supported on top
of the stack.
