Swing Carriage

Swing Carriage - The load capacity of a forklift jib has a maximum of about 1935 pounds to as much as 6000 pounds on either the extended or retracted positions range. You might need to consult with a material handling specialist regarding the specific restrictions of your lift truck use. The load capacity ratings are really used for the jib itself and not the forklift or the utmost load that could be carried securely making use of a certain forklift. It is very important remember that whenever whichever accessories such as a lift truck jib are added to the lift truck, the new center of gravity created by the attachment would decrease the overall lift capacity of the forklift. There are directions available that provide information on the way to accurately gauge these load limits.

Prior to the use of whatever lift truck jib, be sure that the hooks and shackles are correctly secured to the forklift. Be sure and even double check that the pins are tight. It is very important that the load calculations have been properly done and double checked. Keep in mind to take into account the fact that rated capacities sometimes decrease every time the boom is in a raised position, when the boom is fully extended with telehandlers or even when the mast is tilted forward.

A few important tips concerning the modifiable jib are: never pull a load utilizing a forklift jib accessory, as these kinds of accessories are really meant for vertical lift only. Always carry the load without letting it sway. Use extreme caution each time a load is lifted in order to avoid tipping over the truck.
