Swing Carriages

Swing Carriage - The most load capacity for forklift jibs in both the retracted or extended positions range beginning from 1935 lbs up to 6000 pounds. It's a good suggestion to ask a material handling specialist about the limits for your particular use. The load capacity rankings are intended for the jib itself and not the lift truck or the maximum load that can be lifted securely using a certain forklift. It is important to remember that each time whichever attachments like for example a lift truck jib are attached to the forklift, the new center of gravity made by the accessory would reduce the general lift capability of the forklift. There are directions obtainable which provide details on how to properly estimate these load limits.

Prior to the use of any lift truck jib, make sure that the shackles and hooks are correctly secured to the lift truck. Verify and also double check that the pins are tight. It is very important that the weight calculations are properly done and double checked. Remember to take into consideration the fact that rated capacities at times lessen every time the boom is in an elevated position, each time the boom is extended with telehandlers or when the mast is tilted forward.

Some important tips about the modifiable jib are: do not ever pull a load making use of a forklift jib accessory, since these kinds of accessories are actually used for vertical lift only. Always lift the load without letting it move to and fro. Utilize extreme caution any time a load is carried in order to avoid tipping over the truck.
