Stability

Fork Lift Trucks have to be operated in such a way that the stability is guaranteed at all times. We understand as Stability the solid adherence of the lift truck to the floor without any signs of tilting through the entire operation. To guarantee the proper Stability the following influencing factors have to be observed:

  • Condition of the travel path.
  • Tilting of the truck
  • Travel Speed
  • Weight and weight distribution
  • Wheel track
  • Wheel base
  • Springs and Axles
  • Motor performance
  • Type and Number of Tires
  • Location of Battery in electric powered lift trucks
