Question
how should a loaded lift truck be driven on a ramp?
with tractor toward the uphill end of the ramp.
with the load raised at least 24\ from the ramp surface.
with the load toward the uphill end of the ramp.
with the load tilted down.
When driving a loaded lift truck on a ramp, having the load toward the uphill end helps maintain stability. If the tractor (the vehicle part) were toward the uphill end, the load could cause instability. Raising the load too high (24" in this option) can also be dangerous as it raises the center of gravity. Tilting the load down is incorrect as it may lead to the load shifting in an unsafe way.
