G7 - LIFT TRUCK ON A PLATFORM
TRANSPORTING
Ensure that the safety instructions associated with the platform are complied with before loading the lift truck
and that the driver of the carrier vehicle is informed of the dimensions and the weight of the lift truck (see: 2
- DESCRIPTION: CHARACTERISTICS).
Ensure that the platform is of sufficient size and load capacity for transporting the lift truck. Check also the
allowable ground contact pressure of the platform relative to the lift truck.
For lift trucks equipped with a turbo-charged I.C. engine, block off the exhaust outlet to avoid rotation of the
turbo shaft without lubrication when transporting the vehicle.
LOADING THE LIFT TRUCK
- Block the wheels of the platform.
- Attach the loading ramps to the platform in such a way as to give the shallowest possible ramp
angle for the lift truck.
- Load the lift truck parallel to the platform.
- Stop the lift truck (see: 1 - OPERATING AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS: DRIVING INSTRUCTIONS
UNLADEN AND LADEN).
STOWING THE LIFT TRUCK
- Fix the chocks to the platform at the front and at the rear of each tyre (fig. G7/1).
- Also fix the chocks to the platform on the inside of each tyre (fig. G7/2).
- Secure the lift truck to the platform at the anchoring points provided (fig. G7/3 and G7/4) with
sufficiently strong ropes.
- Tighten the ropes (fig. G7/5).
