OVERLOAD SYSTEM
The overload system assists operators in using the machine safely via the use of visual and back-up
alarm if the
machine is reaching roll-over limits and the situation is therefore dangerous.
This device only indicates the forwards
roll-over point;
other factors play a
role in
the
stability
and safety of the
machine, therefore, under no circumstances should the overload system be used as a guide when
assessing the load to be handled. Acceptable loads are indicated on the load charts shown on the machine
and
in this
manual. Under no circumstances
may
this
device replace the operator’s judgment. Operators are
responsible for working
in
safe conditions and complying with
the safety standards defined. While working,
carrying out maintenance or
repairs,
extreme precaution must be taken. Your safety depends on
it...
