Forklift nominal load
The Rated Capacity of this forklift is the weight the machine is capable of lifting under
safe operating conditions. The lifting capacity of a forklift is determined by the height
and weight limits of the load. Poor ground conditions as well as shape of the load may
reduce the weight that can be safely lifted. Overloading the forks can make the forklift
unstable, hard to handle, and may be in danger of tipping over.
Inspect the load you intend to lift and make certain it is within the limits of the Load
Capacity Chart located on the left hand side mudguard.
Load Center (fig. 1, 2)
To rate the lifting capacity of forklifts manufacturers have standardized on a certain size
of load. The rated capacity of this forklift is based on a cube measuring 48in (1 m.), in
all three dimensions with the center of gravity in the center of this cube. This is known as
24in (600 mm) o 20in (500 mm.)load center from both the vertical face of the mast and
from the lifting surface of the forks. lt is important to keep load center in mind for as the
load center increases the lifting capacity of the forklift decreases.
Load Capacity
With the load center of the load at 20 in (500 mm.) from vertical face of the forks, the C
200 H-HI and C 200 H x4 has a rated capacity of 2000 Kg.
With the load center of the load at 24 in (600 mm.) from vertical face of the forks, the C
200 H-HI and C 200 H x4 has a rated capacity of 4040 lbs (2000 Kg).
With the load center of the load at 20 in (500 mm.) from vertical face of the forks, the C
250 H-HI / C 250 H x4 / C 250 H x4 LE / C 250 HI x4 LE has a rated capacity of 2500 Kg.
With the load center of the load at 24 in (600 mm.) from vertical face of the forks, the C
250 H-HI / C 250 H x4 / C 250 H x4 LE / C 250 HI x4 has a rated capacity of 5060 lbs
(2294 Kg).
If the load is too heavy split it and re-stack it. Use of attachments other than the pallet
forks that came with this machine may reduce lifting capacity and affect other machine
handling characteristics.
Reproduced copies of the Load Charts are included in the section
“Tecnical
Specifications”
on this Operator’s and Safety Manual. Study the Load Capacity Chart
of your machine carefully and make certain you understand it before lifting loads on the
forks
