D - TRANSVERSE (HORIZONTAL) ATTITUDE OF THE LIFT TRUCK
(depending on the model of lift truck)
The transverse attitude is the transverse slope of the chassis with respect to the
horizontal.
Raising the jib reduces the lift truck's lateral stability. The transverse attitude must be set
with the jib in down position as follows:
1 - LIFT TRUCK WITHOUT SLOPE CORRECTOR USED ON TYRES
- Position the lift truck so that the bubble in the level is between the two lines (see: 2 -
DESCRIPTION: INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS).
2 - LIFT TRUCK WITH SLOPE CORRECTOR USED ON TYRES
- Correct the slope using the hydraulic control and verify the horizontality via the level. The
bubble in the level must be between the two lines (see: 2 - DESCRIPTION: INSTRUMENTS
AND CONTROLS).
3 - LIFT TRUCK USED ON STABILIZERS
- Set the two stabilizers on the ground and raise the two front wheels of the lift truck (fig.
D1).
- Correct the slope using the stabilizers (fig. D2) and make sure the truck is horizontal by
checking the level. The bubble of the level must be between the two lines (see: 2 -
DESCRIPTION: INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS). In this position, the two front wheels
must be off the ground.
E - TAKING UP A LOAD ON THE GROUND
- Approach the lift truck perpendicular to the load, with the jib retracted and the forks in a
horizontal position (fig. E1).
- Adjust the fork spread and centering in connection with the load (fig. E2) (optional
solutions exist, consult your dealer).
- Never lift a load with a single fork.
Beware of the risks of trapping or squashing limbs when manually adjusting the forks.
- Move the lift truck forward slowly (1) and bring the forks to stop in front of the load (fig.
E3), if necessary, slightly lift the jib (2) while taking up the load.
- Bring the load into the transport position.
- Tilt the load far enough backwards to ensure stability (loss of load on braking or going
downhill).
FOR A NON-PALLETIZED LOAD
- Tilt the carriage (1) forwards and move the lift truck slowly forwards (2), to insert the fork
under the load (fig. E4) (block the load if necessary).
- Continue to move the lift truck forwards (2) tilting the carriage (3) (fig. E4) backwards to
position the load on the forks and check the load's longitudinal and lateral stability.
