OPERATING PROCEDURES
46
However, such factors as weak floors, uneven terrain, or
loads having a high center of gravity can mean that the
safe working load is less than the rated capacity. When
such conditions exist, the operator must reduce the load
so that the lift truck will remain stable.
2. Handle only stable loads. A load
can have unstable items that can
easily shift and fall on someone.
WARNING
Do not handle a load if any loose part of it is above
the top of the carriage or any part of the load is likely
to fall. Loads such as bundles of lumber or empty
containers can fall backwards onto the truck if they
extend past the top of the carriage and mast.
3. Position each fork the same distance from the center of
the carriage. This action will help center the load on the
carriage. Set the forks as far apart as possible for maxi-
mum support of the load. Center the weight of the load
between the forks.
If the weight of the load is not centered between the forks,
the load can fall off the forks when you turn a corner or hit
a bump. An off center load will increase the possibility of
the truck tipping over to the side.
Make sure the pins that keep the forks in position are en-
gaged so that the forks cannot move.
4. Check the condition of the driving surface. Make sure
the floor will support the weight of the lift truck and the
load.
