Determining the actual total weight
–
Park the truck securely.
–
Determine the unit weights by reading the
truck nameplate and, if necessary, the at-
tachment (variant) nameplate and, if neces-
sary, by weighing the load to be lifted.
–
Add the determined unit weights to obtain
the actual total weight of the truck:
Tare weight (1)
+ Ballast weight (variant) (2)
+ Attachment net weight (variant)
+ Weight of the load to be lifted
+ 100 kg allowance for driver
= Actual total weight
Setting down loads
DANGER
Risk of accident due to changed moment of tilt!
Please note that the lift mast can be tilted far enough
forwards with a raised load to cause the truck to tip
over. The load centre of gravity and the moment of
tilt both change when the load slips. The truck may
tip forwards.
–
Only tilt the lift mast forwards with a raised lifting
accessory when it is directly above the stack.
–
When the lift mast is tilted forwards, take particu-
lar care to ensure that the truck does not tip for-
wards and that the load does not slip.
NOTE
If the truck is to be used to place a raised load
in storage with the lift mast tilted forwards, e.g.
in a rack with sloping racking channels, an ad-
ditional load capacity diagram must be created
because the stability will be affected. Please
contact the authorised service centre.
