If the fork blade at the heel is worn down by
more than 10%, the load capacity is reduced
and the fork must be replaced.
Inspect the forks for twists and bends. Put a 50
mm (2 in) thick metal block, at least 100 mm (4 in)
wide by 600 mm (24in) long with parallel sides, on
the blade of the fork with the 100 mm (4 in) surface
against the blade. Put a 600 mm (24 in)
carpenter's square on the top of the block and
against the shank. Check the fork 500 mm (20 in)
above the metal block to make sure it is not bent
more than 12.5 mm (0.5 in) maximum.
If the fork blades are obviously bent or
damaged, have them inspected by a trained
maintenance person before operating the
truck.
Inspect the fork locking pins for cracks or
damage. Reinsert them and note whether they fit
properly.
