Forklift - Load Handling: Questions With AnswersLoad Handling Challenges Right Ans - Load Characteristics, Operating
Procedures, Work Environment
Load Types: Standard Load Right Ans - 48-inch (121.9 cm) cube and sits on
a 48-inch (121.9 cm) square pallet.
Non-standard Load Right Ans - A non-standard load generally has a
consistent shape and weight distribution like a standard load, but may be
longer or wider than a standard load.
Load Types: Odd Load Right Ans - An odd load is a load with one or more
physical characteristics that make it particularly challenging to handle.
Challenging Loads: Non-standard Load Right Ans - You may need to
perform some calculations to determine if the forklift you are operating has
adequate capacity to lift the load.
Challenging Loads: Odd Load Right Ans - If a load is inherently unbalanced,
keep the heaviest part of the load toward the back the forks near the front
wheels of the forklift. If you decide to use a special attachment to hold an odd
load, remember that the weight of the attachment may affect the forklift's
capacity.
Challenging Loads: Unsecured Load Right Ans - An unsecured load is a load
that is not evenly stacked or not adequately held together with shrink wrap or
a strap. Items from an unsecured load may fall off the forks when you stop,
start, or turn the forklift.
Challenging Loads: Tall Right Ans - A tall load may present both visibility
and stability problems. A tall load may block your forward vision, requiring
you to operate the forklift in reverse. In addition, a load that is taller than it is
wide will cause the forklift's combined center of gravity to shift further
sideways on turns.
