Figure 06 Center of gravity and forklift lift locations
NOTE
For the weight of the MEWP, refer to
Section 7.3. The center of gravity is approximately
in the middle of the MEWP, front to back and side
to side. Refer to Figure 6. Vertically, the center of
gravity is approximately a small distance above
the base..
NOTE
A forklift truck can lift the MEWP from the sides.
Lift with the forks in the forklift lift locations as
shown in Figure 06.
