Swing Carriage

Swing Carriages - The most load capacity for forklift jibs in both the retracted or extended positions vary from 1935 pounds to 6000 pounds. It is a good suggestion to ask a material handling specialist about the restrictions for your specific application. The load capacity rankings are intended for the jib itself and not the lift truck or even the maximum load which could be transferred safely using a certain forklift. It is very important keep in mind that each time whichever attachments like for example a forklift jib are added to the forklift, the new center of gravity created by the accessory will lessen the overall lift capacity of the forklift. There are instructions obtainable which offer information on how to properly estimate these load limits.

Prior to utilizing a lift truck jib, ensure that it is well secured to the forklift using shackles and hooks. Continuously make sure so as to verify that the screw pins are tight. It is vital to even make sure that the load calculations have been done correctly. Keep in mind to take into account the truth that rated capacities sometimes lessen each time the boom is in a raised position, whenever the boom is fully extended with telehandlers or even when the mast is slanted frontward.

Vital suggestions each time you are using an adjustable jib is to never pull a load using this type of accessory. These types of attachments are really just meant for vertical raising. What's more, refrain from letting the load sway. Utilize extreme caution each time a load is lifted in order to avoid tipping over the truck.
