Lifting Capacity: Add weight of the Load + Weight of Transport Vehicle + Weight of Personnel.
Axle Capacity: From the "X" Chart: Determine the type of Axle Loading. On the "Y" Chart: Locate the Lifting Capacity required. Follow across to the graph line (A,B,C, or D) which represents the appropriate Axle Loading Conditions and follow down to the Axle Capacity required.

Example:
Load Weighs 4,000 lbs.
Ford Truck Weighs 7,300 lbs.
Operator Weighs 200 lbs.
Total Load and Lifting Capacity Required 11,500 lbs.
Type of Axle Loading "C" (Fork Truck)
Axle Capacity Required 9,200 lbs.
|
Note: If the Dock Lift selected has the Lifting Capacity required, but not the Axle Loading Capacity required, select another Dock Lift which has a higher Lifting Capacity with an Axle Loading Capacity equal to the needs of the
application.
