With the load facing downhill and tilted forward

With the load facing uphill and tilted back

With the load facing uphill with the reach carriage extended to increase stability

6. Before starting to load a rigid flatbed lorry or trailer from ground level the lift truck operator must check that?

The lorry driver has checked the load

The lorry’s tyre pressures are correct for the weight of the load

The lorry driver is aware that loading is to take place, the engine is off, the lorry parking brake is applied and the wheels chocked if necessary

Slightly tilted backwards with the truck on level ground

It doesn't matter as the mast angle does not affect the rated capacity

Slightly tilted forwards with the truck on level ground

Vertical with the truck on level ground

13. How much back tilt is required when transporting a palletised load?

Sufficient back tilt to cater for the type of load and ground conditions

Full tilt to keep the load against the vertical face of the forks

Drive slower and get the fault checked at the next break time

As long as the parking brake works it will be OK to finish the job and then report the fault

15. When tilting a load forward at height, why is there an increased risk of the truck tipping?

The lateral forces placed over the rear axle will increase

The combined centre of gravity moves forward

A small amount of tilt at height does not affect stability

The operator cannot see the pallet slots so places the forks under the pallet

The forks are longer than the pallet and the pallet is adjacent to a wall or another pallet, or the pallet cannot be heeled up immediately
