D - TRANSVERSE ATTITUDE OF THE MACHINE
The transverse attitude is the lateral tilt of the chassis in relation to the floor.
Raising the boom reduces the machine's lateral stability.
The machine's transverse attitude must be set with the boom in the down position as follows:
1 - USE ON TIRES
- Position the machine so that the bubble in the level is between the two lines (
DESCRIPTION: INSTRUMENTS AND
CONTROLS).
2 - USE ON STABILIZERS
- Position the machine so that the bubble in the level is between the two lines ( DESCRIPTION: INSTRUMENTS AND
CONTROLS).
- Set the two stabilizers on the ground and raise the two front wheels of the machine.
E - TAKING UP A LOAD ON THE GROUND
- Approach the machine perpendicular to the load, with the boom retracted and
the forks in a horizontal position (fig. E1).
- Adjust the fork spread and centering relative to the load to ensure stability (fig. E2)
(optional solutions exist, consult your dealer).
- Never lift a load with a single fork.
IMPORTANT
Beware of the risks of trapping or squashing limbs when manually adjusting the forks.
- Move the machine forward slowly (1) and bring the forks all the way up to the front
of the load (fig. E3). If necessary, raise the boom (2) slightly while picking up the load.
- Bring the load into the transport position.
- Tilt the load far enough backward to ensure stability (loss of load on braking or
going downhill).
FOR A NON-PALLETIZED LOAD
- Tilt the carriage (1) forward and move the machine slowly forward (2) to insert the
forks under the load (fig. E4). Block the load if necessary.
- Continue to move the machine (2) forward, tilting the carriage (3) (fig. E4) backward
to position the load on the forks and check the load's longitudinal and lateral stability.
