ACTION
PICTURE
1
Place the forks of the forklift under the load surface.
2
Make sure that the forks come out from the front of the load
(at least 5 cm) to eliminate any risks of overturning of the
transported part.
3
Lift the forks until they are touching the load.
Note: if necessary fix the load to the forks with clamps
or similar devices.
4
Slowly lift the load by a few tens of centimetres and check
it is stable, making sure that the load’s centre of gravity is
positioned in the centre of the lifting forks.
5
Tilt the upright backwards (towards the driver's seat) to
facilitate the tilting moment and guarantee greater stability
of the load during transport.
6
Adapt the transport speed according to the flooring and
type of load, avoiding sudden manoeuvres.
7
Place the load in the chosen area.
