INSTRUCTIONS FOR HANDLING A LOAD
A - CHOICE OF ATTACHMENTS
- Only attachments approved by MANITOU can be used on its lift trucks.
- Make sure the attachment is appropriate for the work to be done (see: 4 - ADAPTABLE ATTACHMENTS IN OPTION ON THE RANGE).
- If the lift truck is equipped with the Single side-shift carriage OPTION (TSDL), use only the authorised attachments (see: 4 - ADAPTABLE
ATTACHMENTS IN OPTION ON THE RANGE).
- Make sure the attachment is correctly installed and locked onto the lift truck carriage.
- Make sure that your lift truck attachments work properly.
- Comply with the load chart limits for the lift truck for the attachment used.
- Do not exceed the rated capacity of the attachment.
- Never lift a load in a sling without the attachment provided for the purpose, as the sling risks to slip (see: INSTRUCTIONS FOR HANDLING
A LOAD: H - TAKING UP AND LAYING DOWN A SUSPENDED LOAD).
B - MASS OF LOAD AND CENTRE OF GRAVITY
- Before taking up a load, you must know its mass and its centre of gravity.
- The load chart for your lift truck is valid for a load in which the longitudinal position of the
centre of gravity is 500 mm from the base of the forks (fig. B1). For a higher centre of gravity,
contact your dealer.
- For irregular loads, determine the transverse centre of gravity before any movement (fig. B2)
and set it in the longitudinal axis of the lift truck.
It is forbidden to move a load heavier than the effective capacity defined on the lift truck load chart.
For loads with a moving centre of gravity (e.g. liquids), take account of the variations in the centre of gravity
in order to determine the load to be handled and be vigilant and take extra care to limit these variations as
far as possible.
C - LONGITUDINAL STABILITY LIMITER AND WARNING DEVICE
This device gives an indication of the longitudinal stability of the lift truck, and limits hydraulic
movements in order to ensure this stability, at least under the following operating conditions:
• when the lift truck is at a standstill,
• when the lift truck is on firm, stable and consolidated ground,
• when the lift truck is performing handling and placing operations.
- Move the jib very carefully when approaching the authorized load limit (see: 2 - DESCRIPTION:
INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS).
- Always watch this device during handling operations.
- In the event that "AGGRAVATING" hydraulic movements are cut-off, only perform de-aggravating
hydraulic movements in the following order (fig. C): if necessary, raise the jib (1), retract the jib
as far as possible (2) and lower the jib (3) to set down the load.
The instrument reading may be erroneous when the steering is at its maximum limit or the rear axle
oscillated to its limit. Before lifting a load, make sure that the lift truck is not in either of these situations.
