The forks must
always and only
be used
with the
self-levelling
valve installed.
It is prohibited to exceed the indicated nominal capacity. Non-compliance of
capacities consented by the Manufacturer causes the loss of stability of the
machine or even overturning.
ONLY USE FORKS AUTHORISED BY THE MANUFACTURER
The maximum capacities corresponding to the centre of gravity of the load are stated below.
Position 1: Capacity Kg 225
Position 2: Capacity Kg 205
Position 3: Capacity Kg 190
Position 4: Capacity Kg 175
Particular caution must be carried out when the forks are used to unload material with-
drawn in a high position and deposited in a low position.
Before proceeding with unloading, as well as checking the compatibility of the load with the
maximum load admitted, it is necessary to alternate, in tracts, descent with a backward
rotation of the forks (at least 4÷5 times) to maintain the load in a horizontal position or slightly
orientated towards the cabin.
Always block the forks to the fork-support plate and the latter to the machine’s quick fitting
in a way that the forks are always centred with the machine’s longitudinal axle.
The movement must be carried out with the load as low as possible; at very low speed and
on flat, compact ground. Lift the load. If necessary, only in the immediate vicinity of the place
of deposit.
Distance the forks adequately on the basis of the load to be lifted. The load must always be
positioned at the centre of the forks with the centre of gravity centred on themselves to
always have max. stability during movement. Never use the forks individually but in a couple
as supplied.
