Swing Carriage

Swing Carriage - The load capacity of a forklift jib has a maximum of roughly 1935 lbs to as much as 6000 pounds on either the retracted or extended positions range. You might want to check with a material handling specialist concerning the particular limits of your lift truck application. The load capacity ratings are really for the jib itself and not the forklift or the utmost load that could be moved safely with a certain forklift. It is essential to keep in mind that every time any attachments such as a lift truck jib are fitted to the lift truck, the new center of gravity created by the attachment would lessen the general lift capability of the forklift. There are directions obtainable that offer details on the way to properly determine these load limits.

Prior to using whichever forklift jib, be sure that the hooks and shackles are properly secured to the lift truck. Be sure and even double check that the pins are tight. It is necessary that the weight calculations have been correctly done and double checked. Bear in mind to consider the fact that rated capacities sometimes decrease whenever the boom is in an elevated position, each time the boom is fully extended with telehandlers or even whenever the mast is slanted frontward.

Some essential pointers about the adjustable jib are: do not ever pull a load with a lift truck jib accessory, for the reason that these kinds of attachments are designed for vertical lift only. Always carry the load without letting it move to and fro. Use extreme caution each time a load is carried in order to avoid tipping over the truck.
