Industrial trucks. Verification of stability. Additional stability test for trucks operating in the special condition of stacking with load laterally displaced by powered devices | Status: Current

1 Scope This document specifies an additional test for verifying the stability of a laden truck fitted with a powered load-handling device, such as a sideshift, which can displace the centre of gravity laterally to a substantial, predetermined extent from the longitudinal centre plane of the truck or from the centred position. Such devices are used in this mode for depositing and retrieving a load. A displacement is considered to be a substantial displacement if it is more than:

• — 100 mm, for a truck with a rated capacity < 5 000 kg;
• — 150 mm, for a truck with a rated capacity ≥ 5 000 kg and ≤ 10 000 kg;
• — 250 mm, for a truck with a rated capacity > 10 000 kg and < 20 000 kg;
• — 350 mm, for a truck with a rated capacity ≥ 20 000 kg;

This document is applicable to the following types of trucks as defined in ISO 5053‑1:

1. a) counterbalance trucks;
2. b) reach and straddle trucks;
3. c) pallet stackers;
4. d) bidirectional and multidirectional trucks;
5. e) industrial variable-reach trucks;
6. f) rough-terrain trucks with mast;
7. g) rough-terrain variable reach trucks;
8. h) counterbalance trucks with articulated steering;
9. i) variable-reach container handler;
10. j) counterbalanced container handler.
