with undamaged, properly inflated tires.
Machine specifications and stability are
based on rated lift capacities at specific
boom angles and boom lengths.

(If specifications are critical, the proposed
application should be discussed with your dealer.)

DO NOT exceed rated lift capacity loads, as
unstable and dangerous machine conditions
will result.

DO NOT tip the machine forward to determine
the allowable load.

Use only JLG approved attachments with
proper material handler model/attachment
load capacity charts displayed in the operator’s
cab. OSHA requires all rough terrain forklift
operators be trained according to OSHA 29
CFR 1910.178 (1).

Due to continuous product improvements,
machine specifications and/or equipment
changes may be made without prior notification.
This machine meets or exceeds ANSI/ITSDF
B56.6-2005 as originally manufactured for
intended applications.
