The load center is the distance from the front face of fork vertical section to the goods gravity
center. The above load capacity chart indicates the relationship between the forklift load
center and permissible load (allowable load), the load curve label plate is pasted on the
vehicle, if it is damaged or lost, new one shall be used.

• If the vehicle is equipped with the attachment of handling goods , such as side shifter or
wheel fork, the allowable load is lower than the corresponding standard forklift (without
any attachment), and the causes are as follows:
a) The load equivalent to the weight of attachment is decreased.
b) Because the load center will move forward due to the length of attachment, the
allowable load will be reduced in the same principle.
• If the installation of attachment cause load center to move forward, it ’ ll be called loss of
“ Load center ” .
• The attachment can ’ t exceed the allowable load of load curve pasted on the vehicle or
attachment.

stability
The stability standard of forklift is stipulated in ISO of related domestic standard, however, the
stability stated in these standards are not suitable for all running states, and the forklift stability
will be different due to different running states.
Under the following running state, the maximal stability can be ensured:
a. Ground is leveled and hard;
b. Operate under standard no-load or load state.
Standard no-load state: The fork or other carrying accessories are 300mm above ground, the
mast tilts back in position with no load.
Standard load state: The fork or other carrying accessories are 300mm above ground, under the
standard allowable load of load center, mast tilts backward in position

Warning
When the goods are unloaded, the mast shall tilt forward and backward minimally, unless the
load is fixed reliably or the lifting height is lowered, don ’ t tilt forward.

• When the forklift is loaded, unloaded and transported on the road, the total length, width
and height shall be considered, and relevant codes shall be abided by.
