Swing Carriages

Swing Carriage - The maximum load capacity for forklift jibs in both the retracted or extended positions range beginning from 1935 lbs to 6000 pounds. It's a good suggestion to ask a material handling specialist concerning the restrictions for your specific application. The load capacity rankings are meant for the jib itself and not the lift truck or even the maximum load that could be handled securely using a particular forklift. It is very important remember that at any time when whichever attachments like for example a forklift jib are added to the forklift, the new center of gravity created by the accessory would lessen the general lift capacity of the forklift. There are directions accessible which offer information on how to accurately estimate these load limits.

Before utilizing any lift truck jib, be sure that the hooks and shackles are correctly secured to the forklift. Make sure and even double check that the pins are tight. It is imperative that the load calculations have been properly made and double checked. Keep in mind to take into account the fact that rated capacities at times decrease when the boom is in a raised position, every time the boom is extended with telehandlers or each time the mast is tilted forward.

Essential suggestions when using an adjustable jib is to never pull a load with the use of this kind of attachment. These kinds of attachments are really only meant for vertical lifting. What's more, avoid letting the load swing. Utilize extreme caution every time a load is lifted to avoid tipping over the truck.
