Fork Ratings
Warning
DO NOT exceed forklift capacity of 12,000
pounds (5,443 Kilograms). The total rated
capacity of the forks being used must
equal or exceed forklift capacity. Forks
can break causing loss of load and could result in
death or serious injury.
All approved forks for this forklift are marked with a
maximum load capacity rating (A). This rating is stamped
on the left edge of the fork just below the fork pivot shaft.
The rating is listed in U.S. pounds and based upon a 24
inch (610 mm) load center (B). This rating species the
maximum load capacity that the individual fork can safely
carry at a maximum load center of 24 inches (610 mm).
Figure 7-18. Fork Ratings.
(A) Maximum Load Capacity Rating. (B) 24 Inch Load Center.
Because forks are always used in multiples, the total
rating of any combination of forks will be the sum of their
rated capacity. Other than block forks, all forks should
be used in matched pairs. Block forks should be used in
matched sets.
The maximum load capacity for this forklift is 12,000
pounds (5,443 Kilograms). The matched pair or set of
forks used on this forklift should have total load ratings
which equal or exceed 12,000 pounds (5,443 Kilograms).
When the load rating of the forklift diers from the load
capacity of the forks, the lower value becomes the overall
load capacity.
Standard Carriage Operation
The standard carriage uses manually adjustable forks and
can be tilted up or down by using the thumb switch on
the control handle.
