MACHINE OPERATION
• Comply with the load chart limits for the lift truck for
the attachment used.
• Do not exceed the rated capacity of the attachment.
• Never lift a load in a sling without the attachment
provided for the purpose. There are optional
solutions; contact your
Weight of Load and Centre of Gravity
WARNING
It is forbidden to move a load heavier than the effective
capacity defined on the lift truck load chart.
For loads with a moving centre of gravity (e.g. liquids), take
account of the variations in the centre of gravity in order to
determine the load to be handled and be extra vigilant and
careful to limit these variations as far as possible.
• Before taking up a load, you must know its mass
and its centre of gravity.
• The load chart for your lift truck is valid for a load in
which the longitudinal position of the centre of
gravity is 500 mm or 600 mm from the base of the
forks (according to the model of lift truck) . For a
higher centre of gravity, contact your dealer
• For irregular loads, determine the transverse centre
of gravity before any movement and set it in the
longitudinal axis of the lift truck.
Transverse Attitude of the Lift Truck
The transverse attitude is the transverse slope of the
chassis with respect to the horizontal.
Raising the mast reduces the lift truck's lateral stability.
The transverse attitude must be set with the mast in
down position as follows:
• Position the lift truck so that the bubble in the level
is between the two lines.
Picking up a load on the ground
1. Approach the lift truck perpendicular to the load,
with the forks in a horizontal position.
2. Approach the lift truck perpendicular to the load,
with the forks in a horizontal position.
3. Adjust the fork spread and centring in connection
with the load (optional solutions exist, consult your
dealer).
4. Never lift a load with a single fork.
WARNING
Beware of the risks of trapping or crushing limbs when
manually adjusting the forks.
5. Move the lift truck forward slowly (1) and bring the
forks to stop in front of the load, if necessary, slightly
lift the mast (2) while taking up the load.
6. Bring the load into the transport position.
7. Tilt the load far enough backwards to ensure
stability (loss of load on braking or going downhill).
