Center
WHAT IS LOAD CENTER?
Load center is the distance from the load backrest or vertical face of the fork to the center of an evenly distributed load.
LOADS MUST BE EVENLY DISTRIBUTED
Your truck could tip over, in any direction, if a load is shifted to the front or side of a pallet or container.
KNOW YOUR LOAD
Do not exceed the capacity shown on your truck's capacity plate. Be careful when handling long, high or wide loads. Do not handle unstable loads.
EXCEEDING TRUCK CAPACITY CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT
Know the capacity of your truck as shown on your capacity plate. Make certain you use the correct units of measure. Pay attention to:
•Weight of load
•Load center
•Lift height
•Position of mast
CENTER THE LOAD
Your truck could tip over if a load is shifted to the front or side of a pallet or container. Make sure your load is evenly distributed and centered over the forks.
HYDRAULIC OPERATIONS CAN AFFECT STABILITY
Capacities shown on your capacity plate are with the mast vertical. Be extra careful when tilting a load. (This also applies to other accessories or attachments your truck may have, such as sideshift, carton clamp, push- pull, etc.)
