Load Moment Indicator
The load moment indicator is a feature which continually monitors the load
on the rear axle as loads are being lifted and extended. The system alerts
the operator when the ground pressure on the rear of the vehicle has
decreased to a point that the rear of the vehicle could raise up off the
ground. This system indicates the level of forward stability and not
necessarily of sideways stability. The display panel (4) is mounted in front of
the joystick on the right side console.
1. The display has a green power light (5) next to the test button (6) to
inform the operator that the system is active. This light will come
ON when the ignition is turned to the RUN position.
2. The display has a series of three green lights (7), one amber light
(8), one red light (9) and an audible alarm that informs the operator
of each operating load range.
3. As the load is extended and reaches 100% of the vehicles capacity,
the three green lights will be lit and the amber light will flash.
4. As the load goes over 100% of the vehicles capacity the red light
will come ON and an audible alarm will sound, alerting the operator
that the load should be retracted.
WARNING: The Load Moment Indicator (LMI) system
is not intended to be an absolute
replacement for the capacity
charts. DO NOT exceed rated capacities! Any attempt to lift or
carry loads in excess of those shown on the capacity chart may
cause vehicle tipover, loss of load or structural damage which
could result in death or serious personal injury.
