Operation 5
Lifting
Load chains not under tension
DANGER
Danger caused by a falling load!
– Make sure that the chain(s) does (do) not
become slack when lowering the load.
Slack chains can, for instance, result from:
• Resting the fork carriage or the load on the
racking.
• Fork carriage rollers blocking in the lift mast
due to contamination.
– If the fork carriage or the load comes to an
unexpected stop, lift the fork carriage until
the chains are under tension again and
lower the load at another suitable location.
– If the fork carriage rollers in the lift mast
become blocked due to contamination, lift
the fork carriage until the chains are under
tension again. Remove the contamination
before resuming work.
WARNING
Risk of injury!
– Observe the safety regulations for working on
the lift mast, see the chapter entitled "Working at
the front of the truck".
