Swing Carriage

Swing Carriage - The load capacity of a forklift jib has a most of about 1935 lbs to as much as 6000 lbs on either the retracted or extended positions range. You may need to ask a material handling specialist about the particular restrictions of your lift truck use. The load capacity ratings are used for the jib itself and not the forklift or even the maximum load which can be lifted securely with a particular forklift. It is very important bear in mind that every time any accessories like a forklift jib are connected to the lift truck, the new center of gravity made by the attachment would reduce the general lift capability of the forklift. There are guidelines available which offer information on the way to correctly calculate these load limits.

Before the use of whatever lift truck jib, be sure that the hooks and shackles are correctly secured to the forklift. Be sure and also double check that the pins are tight. It is imperative that the weight calculations have been correctly done and double checked. Remember to take into consideration the fact that rated capacities occasionally decrease whenever the boom is in an elevated position, each time the boom is extended with telehandlers or each time the mast is tilted frontward.

A few essential suggestions regarding the adjustable jib are: don't ever pull a load utilizing a lift truck jib accessory, for the reason that these kinds of accessories are used for vertical lift only. Always pick up the load without letting it move backward and forward. Utilize extreme caution each and every time a load is lifted to prevent tipping over the truck.
