Load Capacity Charts
Warning
DO NOT exceed rated capacities. Any
attempt to lift or carry loads in excess of
those shown on the load capacity charts
could cause forklift tip over, loss of load, or
structural damage which could result in death, serious
injury, or property damage.
All load ratings shown on load capacity charts are
based on the forklift being on rm, level ground,
the forks being evenly positioned on the carriage,
the load being centered on the forks, properly sized
tires properly inated, and the forklift being in good
operating condition.
Load capacity charts, located on the left side of the dash
panel, are provided to assist the operator in determining
how to safely operate the boom to pick up, carry, and set
down a load with the reach forklift, including what angle,
how high, and how far to extend the boom.
Figure 7-37. Typical Load Capacity Chart.
Using Load Capacity Charts
The reach forklift includes two (2) indicators to assist the
operator for accurately using the load capacity charts.
These indicators are the Boom Extend Letters and the
Boom Angle Indicator.
Boom extend letters are located on the left side of the
boom and visible to the operator as the boom is extended.
These letters indicate boom extension as it corresponds to
the load capacity charts.
NOTE: For example, when letter “A” rst appears, the
boom extension corresponds to the arc of line “A”
throughout all the load capacity charts.
Figure 7-38. Boom Extend Letters.
The boom angle indicator is located on the left side of
the boom and is visible from the operator’s seat. Use the
boom angle indicator to determine the boom angle when
referring to load capacity charts.
NOTE: The boom angle indicator is a plumb arrow with
angular graduations from -5 to +70°.
Figure 7-39. Boom Angle Indicator.
Reading Load Capacity Charts
To accurately read the load capacity charts, you must
determine three (3) things:
• Weight of load being lifted.
• Height of structure where load is to be placed.
• Distance from front tires where load will be placed.
