Operation
Load Handling
Danger
Warning
Failure to follow proper safety procedures
when lifting, lowering, and traveling with
a load could cause death, serious injury, or
property damage.
DO NOT exceed forklift capacity of 30,000
pounds (13,608 Kilograms) with a 72" fixed carriage or
28,000 lbs (12,700 kilograms) with a 72" 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.
DO NOT exceed the manufacturer’s rated load
for any auxiliary attachment. Any attempt to
lift or carry loads in excess of the manufactur-
er’s rated load may cause forklift tip over, loss
of load, or structural damage which could re-
sult in death, serious injury, or property damage.
Warning
Death or serious injury by electrocution
will result from contact with or inadequate
clearance with energized power lines or
apparatus.
•
Take extreme caution when operating the forklift in an
area where active overhead power lines, overhead or
underground cables, or other power sources exist.
•
Contact the appropriate power or utility company to de-
energize power lines or take other suitable precautions.
Failure to keep personnel clear of the load
area while the load is being raised or lowered
could result in death or serious injury. DO
NOT lift, swing, or move a load over anyone.
Keep the forklift, attachments, and loads a
safe distance from electrical power lines.
• Remain at least 10 feet (3 meters), plus an
additional 0.4 inches (10 millimeters) for each
1,000 Volts over 50,000 Volts, from active pow-
er lines and other power sources.
•
Work site operating directives and/or local or state
codes might require a greater distance.
•
Know the maximum height and reach of this reach fork-
lift.
