Handling of individual suspended loads
On forklifts that are equipped with an additional hook attachment attached to the fork
arm (or with any other device that makes it possible for the loads to be suspended on
a hook), there is a tendency for additional destabilizing forces to act on the forklift. In
the case of forklifts that have been converted for such work, the following guidelines
must be observed in order to improve the stability of the forklift.
NOTICE
A forklift that has been converted for the transportation of loads on a hook is
a crane, and therefore the corresponding regulations for cranes are
applicable.
When handling suspended loads, the loaded maximum speed on flat ground must be
limited to 10.5 mph / 17 km/h.
The carrying capacity of the forklift is reduced if it has been converted for
transportation of loads on a hook. The following instructions are visible on the
nameplate mounted on the auxiliary device or cab.
