When picking up the load correct fork spacing?

6 inches


When picking up a load correct fork spacing should be?

If the load is on a pallet, the forks should be spaced wide enough so that the pallet is stable and will not tilt to one side, so shedding the load. If the forks are set too narrow, the pallet could be unstable and the load may slide off. Not every fork truck driver would bother to adjust the fork spacing, and may try to get away with it. But they should at least take care, keep the load close to the ground and avoid tight turns at too high a speed.
