Forklift stability depends on the combined center
Forklift stability depends on the combined center
of gravity of the forklift and load. When the forklift isof gravity of the forklift and load. When the forklift is
unloaded, the center of gravity (CoG) remainsunloaded, the center of gravity (CoG) remains
unchanged. When the forklift is loaded, the center ofunchanged. When the forklift is loaded, the center of
gravity is formed by the combined center of gravity ofgravity is formed by the combined center of gravity of
the forklift and load.the forklift and load.
The load's center of gravity depends on whether
The load's center of gravity depends on whether
the mast is tilted forward or backward, raised orthe mast is tilted forward or backward, raised or
lowered, which means that the combined center oflowered, which means that the combined center of
gravity also changes accorgravity also changes accordinglydingly..
The forklift's combined center of gravity is
