Placing a Suspended Load
Before placing any load be sure that:
• Landing point can safely support weight of load.
• Landing point is level; front to back and side to side.
• Use capacity chart to determine safe boom extension range. See “Use of the Capacity
Chart” on page 5-5.
• Align load at level the load is to be placed, then position boom slowly until load is just
above area where it is to be placed.
• Ensure that guide persons and operator remain in constant communication (verbal or
hand) when placing load.
Disengaging a Suspended Load
• Never place guide persons between suspended load and telehandler.
• Once at destination of load, ensure to bring telehandler to a complete stop and apply
park brake prior to disengagement of lifting devices and tethers.
