Fork Ratings
Warning
DO NOT exceed forklift capacity of 30,000
pounds (13,608 Kilograms) with a 72 inch
fixed carriage or 28,000 lbs (12,700 kilo-
grams) with a 72 inch adjustable carriage.
The total rated capacity of the forks being
used must equal or exceed forklift capacity. Forks can bend
or break causing loss of load and could result in death or
serious injury.
All approved forks for this forklift are marked with a maximum
load capacity rating (A). This rating is stamped on the left edge
of the fork just below the fork pivot shaft. The rating listed is in
U.S. pounds and is based upon a 36 inch (914 mm) load center
(B). This rating specifies the maximum load capacity that the
individual fork can safely carry at a maximum load center of 36
inches (914 mm).
Fig 69. Fork Ratings
(A) Maximum Load Capacity Rating; (B) 36 inch Load Center
Because forks are always used in multiples, the total rating
of any combination of forks will be the sum of their rated
capacity. Other than block forks, all forks should be used in
matched pairs. Block forks should be used in matched sets.
The maximum load capacity for this forklift with the boom
fully retracted is 30,000 pounds (13,608 Kilograms) using
a 72 inch fixed carriage, or 28,000 lbs (12,700 kilograms)
when using a 72 inch adjustable carriage.
The matched pair or set of forks used on this forklift should
have total load ratings which equal or exceed 30,000 pounds
(13,608 Kilograms) when using a fixed carriage and 28,000 lbs
(12,700 kilograms) when using a 72 inch adjustable carriage.
When the load rating of the forklift differs from the load
capacity of the forks, the lower value becomes the overall load
capacity.
