Lifting
WARNING
There is a risk of tipping!
The weight and dimensions of the fork extension
affect the stability of the truck. The permissible
weights stated on the capacity rating plate must be
reduced in proportion to the actual load distance.
If the truck is equipped with a fork extension ex
works, then the capacity rating plate will already
have been adjusted accordingly.
– Observe the load capacity; refer to the chapter
entitled "Before picking up a load".
NOTE
If the truck is equipped with the "load mea-
surement" comfort feature (variant), a "zero
adjustment of the load measurement" must
always be performed after the fork arms have
been changed. Otherwise, correct load mea-
surement cannot be guaranteed.
