Placing a Suspended Load

Before placing any load be sure that:

• The landing point can safely support the weight of the load.

• The landing point is level; front to back and side to side.

• Use the capacity chart to determine safe boom extension range. See “Use of the

Capacity Chart” on page 5-4.

• Align load at the level load is to be placed, then position boom slowly until load is

just above area where it is to be placed.

• Ensure that the guide persons and operator remain in constant communication

(verbal or hand) when placing the load.

Disengaging a Suspended Load

• Never place the guide persons between the suspended load and the telehandler.

• Once at the destination of the load, ensure to bring the telehandler to a complete

stop and apply the park brake prior to disengagement of the lifting devices and
tethers.
