Haulotte Straight Boom Lifts San Jose

Telehandlers are machinery which are meant to operate in rough terrain, although, that doesn't mean that they could be driven without any regard for the terrain. These types of machinery have a a lot greater risk of load loss or tipping over when they are traveling on slopes.



When traveling on a slope, make sure that you move slowly with the machinery while also keeping the load low. Downshift to 4WD and a lower gear, before getting on the slope. Using the engine brake would help to control the speed of the telehandlers. Try to avoid turning on a slope if possible. If you need to make the turn, take it as wide as possible and utilize extreme caution.



Under any conditions, avoid driving across very steep slopes. Ascend and descend slopes with the telehandler's heavy end pointing up the incline. Even when the forks have no load, the equipment's counterweighted rear is quite heavy; thus, it can be necessary to drive in reverse up slopes. When the telehandler is carrying a cargo, the front of the unit becomes the heavy end, and you would be able to back the machine down the slopes.



On a mixed jobsite, operator training is really essential. The coordinated steering machinery, along with the rear-pivot machines usually work on the same jobsite where everybody is permitted to utilize all of the machinery. In this instance, an individual who is used to utilizing a coordinated steer machine can jump onto a rear-pivot machinery. A really key distinction between how these two units work depends on what part of the machine extends outside of the turning radius.
