  • der der der!

  • this operation has obviously never had forklift training..I have seen a man killed from one rolling over...it's not the least bit funny to forever live with the image.

  • The "operator"(what a jack-ass) didn't have the mast tilted back far enough. Loads like this are run-of-the-mill at my job. There's never a problem with this much weight unless you don't tilt back.

  • Actually, it does have a rather large counterweight. Look at the section above the rear wheels, where the grille is, and where the propane tank sits. That is the counterweight and it is a solid hunk of cast iron.

    Based on the size of the lift itself, I would say that has a maximum load capacity of close to 8,000lbs/3600kg

  • Or else the operator hit the brakes hard with the load up high. Such a fast stop can cause a tipover even if the load is under capacity

  • Loller at the propane tank gettin FUBAR'D

  • Yea, they're pretty smart aint they ...

  • Dumb - Asses still have the Propane Tank on there as there trying to level it back out?

  • it does have one but a very small one ....that forklift was way too small to be doing that work

  • hyster , kool forklift
