Haulotte Straight Boom Lifts Portland

Telehandlers are heavy duty work machines produced specially to operate in rough terrain. This however, does not mean they could be driven without consideration on rough terrain. These machinery have a much greater risk of tipping over or load loss when they are traveling on slopes.



If you do have to travel on a slope, make sure that you proceed slowly and carefully while keeping the load low. Before getting on the slope, downshift to 4WD and a lower gear. Utilizing the engine brake will really help to control the speed of the telehandlers. Try not to turn on a slope if possible. If you have to make the turn, utilize extreme care and take it as wide as possible.



Always try not to drive across extremely steep slopes. Utilize the heavy end of the telehandler pointing up the incline, when descending and ascending slopes. Even when there is no load on the forks, the machine's counterweighted rear is fairly heavy; thus, it could be necessary to drive backwards up slopes. When the telehandler is carrying a cargo, the front of the unit becomes the heavy end, and you will be able to back the machinery down the slopes.



Operator training is extremely essential on a mixed jobsite. Rear pivot machines will normally operate on the same jobsite of coordinated steering machines, where everyone is allowed to use all of the machinery. In this instance, an individual who is used to utilizing a coordinated steer machinery can jump onto a rear-pivot equipment. A really key difference between how these two units work depends on what part of the equipment extends outside of the turning radius.
