Jungheinrich Narrow Aisle Forklifts Corpus Christi

The following add-ons are very helpful for narrow aisle forklifts:

Side shift: The side shift option allows the movement of the load laterally without having to move the truck. This allows loads to be placed with a lot more accuracy.



Tilt mast: The tilt mast option allows the forks to shift backwards and forwards. This is great in situations where loads aren't completely level. To gain more stability while transporting a truck which is loaded, the mast could be tilted backwards.



Extendable forks: The option of extendable forks helps the "reach" of the forklift to extend for stacking pallets one in front of the other, known as "double-deep" loading.



Operator platforms: Some NA forklifts have operator platforms which could lower and raise the operator while at the same time raising and lowering the forklifts forks. This provides optimum control and visibility when handling loads at heights of 6 m to 9 m.



Forklift on a Ramp

Operators need to be well trained and must be tested and qualified. It is essential for anybody operating a lift truck to be educated about safety rules and problems. Operators need to understand how to make adjustments in cases where the load weight alters the center of gravity or on uneven surfaces. Safety rules include the safe operation of a lift truck on a ramp, that is always happening since the driver would normally have to drive up and down ramps to load and unload containers.



Suggestions for Using a Forklift on a Ramp

1 Drive slowly while approaching a ramp and when driving up and down the ramp. The risk of mishaps is higher while driving fast since this can upset the equipment's center of gravity.

2 Drive the forklift in reverse when moving up an incline on a ramp when not carrying a load.

3 While moving down an incline on a ramp with no load, drive forward.

4 Tilt the forks slightly back to shift the center of the load to the machine's front, while moving up or down a ramp when carrying a load.

5 Drive forward up a ramp when carrying a load to make the load more stable.
