Don’t Take the Risk — Know Your Forklift Load Limits

Forklift capacity is not a fixed number. Factors such as lift height, load center, and attachments can significantly reduce the actual lifting capacity of your equipment.

Overlooking these details may expose your operation to serious safety and financial risks.

 

Why Load Limits Matter

When forklifts are pushed beyond their rated capacity, the consequences can be costly:

 
  • Increased Risk of Tip-Overs

Exceeding load limits affects stability and can endanger operators and nearby workers.

  • Product Damage

Unstable or overloaded lifts increase the risk of dropped or damaged goods.

  • Accelerated Wear & Equipment Failure

Consistent overloading strains components, leading to faster wear, unexpected breakdowns, and higher repair costs.

  • Higher Operational Costs

Downtime, repairs, and safety incidents all impact productivity and profitability.
