PICKING UP A HIGH LOAD ON STABILIZERS
- Ensure that the forks will easily pass under the load.
- Check the position of the machine with respect to the load and make a test run, if
necessary, without picking up the load.
- Raise and extend the boom (1) (2) until the forks are at the level of the load (fig. G5).
- Insert the forks under the load as far as they will go by alternately extending and
lowering the boom (1) (fig. G6).
- Lift the load slightly (1) and tilt the carriage (2) backward to stabilize the load (fig. G7).
- Monitor the longitudinal stability limiter and warning device (
INSTRUCTIONS FOR
HANDLING A LOAD: C - LONGITUDINAL STABILITY LIMITER AND WARNING DEVICE).
If it is overloaded, set the load back down in the place from which it was picked up.
- If possible, lower the load without moving the machine. Raise the boom (1) to
release the load, retract (2) and lower the boom (3) to set the load into transport
position (fig. G8).
SETTING DOWN A HIGH LOAD ON STABILIZERS
- Raise and extend the boom (1) (2) until the load is above the elevation (fig. G9), while
monitoring the longitudinal stability limiter and warning device (
INSTRUCTIONS
FOR HANDLING A LOAD: C - LONGITUDINAL STABILITY LIMITER AND WARNING
DEVICE).
- Position the load horizontally and release it by lowering and retracting the boom
(1) (2) to position the load correctly (fig. G10).
- Free the forks by alternately retracting and raising the boom (3) (fig. G11).
- If possible, set the boom in transport position without moving the machine.
