CLARK advises against the use of lift trucks as personnel elevators. Improper maintenance and operation of lift trucks or improperly designed platforms can cause accidents. CLARK's recommendation is to use equipment designed for the job.

CLARK's general-purpose lift trucks are not designed as personnel elevators. While the OSHA and ANSI safety standards permit such attachments to be used, CLARK does not itself sell safety platforms and does not permit the use of platforms on lift trucks. CLARK warns against the use of lift trucks for elevating people in its operator's manuals, in training courses and manuals, and in labels on the machines. If you decide to use lift trucks as personnel elevators, be sure to review the OSHA and ANSI safety standards and procedures that must be followed in the course of such an application. In addition, please refer to the sections on personnel elevators contained in the CLARK's Employer's Guide to Material Handling Safety, especially the section on training necessary for operators of lift trucks used in this application. Apollo pro yoyo. Please know that the CLARK's Employer's Guide to Material Handling Safety is available from. Again, CLARK strongly advises against the use of lift trucks as personnel elevators.

There are specific products designed to raise people for overhead work, and CLARK believes that these machines are better suited for this work. There are five basic points you should know for operating on grades • Use only equipment designed for operation on grades, such as sit-down lift trucks, stand-up counterbalanced lift trucks and pallet trucks. Narrow aisle and very narrow aisle trucks should not be used on grades.

What year is a 753 bobcat with serial # 512728640. Bobcat isn't that simple as to decode the serial number to establish a year of production. Call 701-678-6165. Give the representative your model and serial number and they will give you the production date.

• Stand-up counterbalanced trucks are appropriate for short grades, such as dock plates up to 15%, but are not to be used on long grades. • Travel up and down grades slowly.

Never turn on a grade or cross a grade sideways. Turn only on flat surfaces. • In general, all lift trucks except pallet trucks should be operated with the load upgrade. Unloaded trucks should be operated with the forks or attachment downgrade. The load should be tilted back and raised only as high as necessary to clear the surface. • When using pallet trucks, always keep forks downgrade and in the raised position when working on a grade. Do not ride pallet trucks on a grade.

Pallet trucks are designed to travel up to a 5% maximum grade with load. 'Floor loading' is often a misunderstood term. It is a measurement of the amount of weight a floor can withstand under given load conditions.

Only qualified architectural or civil engineers can determine floor loading. Wheel loading, the amount of weight carried on each wheel of an industrial truck, is one of the factors used to determine floor loading. “Wheel loading” is not synonymous with “floor loading.” The Industrial Truck Association and the American Institute of Architectural Engineering agree that 'Building construction varies widely, and it is impossible to make a precise recommendation without a detailed technical study of the building involved. It is always recommended that a qualified civil or architectural engineer study the building in question to determine the weight of the truck that would be permissible under the specific conditions involved.' This is also the position of CLARK.
