Capacity & Load Center
11 Capacity & Load Center
WHAT IS YOUR TRUCK CAPACITY?
Capacity is the load (including pallet or
container) that can be lifted to a given height
at a given load center. See the capacity plate on
your truck. Make certain you use the correct units
of measure.
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 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.

Know the Hazards
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. Use the correct units of measure. Pay attention to:
• Weight of load
• Load center
• Lift height
HYDRAULIC OPERATIONS CAN AFFECT STABILITY
Be careful when using reach, tilt or other hydraulic
operations. Remember that any time the forks move, the
load moves also. This can affect stability. Perform all
operations smoothly. (This also applies to any attachments
your truck may have.)
CENTER THE LOAD
Your truck could tip over, in any direction, if a load is
shifted to the front or side of a pallet or container. Make
certain your load is centered and evenly distributed.
