10.6.8 Forks safe working procedures
10.6.8.1 General instructions on forks use
DANGER
Never lift a load slung with a single fork or with a board.
It is absolutely forbidden to use the forks with hooks, straps or other materials for handling suspended
loads. Use the appropriate accessories (hook, winch, jib).
– Alwayssettheforksfullyundertheloadandmoveittothetransportposition(forksat300mmfromthe
groundandtiltedbackwards,withfullyretractedboom).
– Theloaddiagramsarevalidforcentersofgravityindicatedonthediagram.Foracenterofgravityata
greaterdistance,contactyourdealer.
– Payattentiontotheriskofcrushinglimbswhenadjustingtheforksmanually.
– Itisabsolutelyforbiddentoincreasethelengthorwidthoftheforkswithextensionsnotprovideddirectly
bytheManufacturer.InthiscaseDIECIisraisedfromanyresponsibilityregardingtheiruse.
– Forksoverloadingandtransversestressarestrictlyprohibited.
– Placetheforkstotheirmaximumpossiblewidth.Beforeliftingaloadmakesurethatthewidthoftheforks
correspondstothatofthepalletorthatthesecanwithstandtheweightoftheloadonthepallet.Forks
setwideapartmaintainastableload.
– Placeloadsevenlyontheforks,toobtainastablebalance.Whenliftingwideloads,ornotcenteredand
thatareimpossibletocenter,maneuverthevehiclewithcautioninordertopreventthisfromtipping.Use
cautionwhenliftingbarsofconsiderablelength.
– Donotraisetheloadwiththetipoftheforksfacingdownwards.Theforksmustalwaysbewiththetips
pointingupwards;inthiswaytheloadwillleanagainsttheplateoftheforks.Aliftedloadcanbetilted
forwardonlyifitmustbeplacedonastackordirectlyonadischargesurface.
– Donotusethevehicletotransportormovepersonswhentheforks areassembledonit.Usesuitable
accessories.
