To move a load from a stack
To move a load from a stack
Approach the stack carefully, truck lined up squarely with the load. With mast vertical, raise the
forks to the correct height for freely engaging the load pallet. Adjust fork angle as necessary to fit
squarely under the load. Move (inch) forward until the forks are under the load.
Be sure that the forks do not extend beyond the load
Be sure that the forks do not extend beyond the load, causing damage or tipping of other
adjacent loads or materials behind the load being moved. If the forks are longer than the load,
move the tips partially under the load without extending beyond the load.
Raise the load to clear the under surface. Back out several inches, then set the load down and
move forward until the front face of the forks contacts the load. Be careful that the fork tips now
clear the adjacent load or material behind the load being moved.
Raise the load from the stack by tilting the mast back just enough to lift the load from the surface.
Or, with the mast still vertical, raise the forks until they begin to lift the load. At this point, apply the
minimum back tilt that will stabilize the load.
Check your travel path, slowly back up until clear of the stack, stop, and then lower the load to
the travel position [150~200 mm (6~8 in) off the ground]. Tilt full back to travel (Except for certain
loads that may have to be transported as level as possible). Be sure the load is back flush
against the carriage or front face of the forks.
Certain loads must be transported as level as possible.
