Published by SALUSWhen using forklift attachments, it's important to understand and adhere to safety regulations. In the USA, requirements are set forth in ANSI/ITSDF B56\.6 and OSHA 29 CFR 1926\.1400-1442\. Additional rules, standards, and regulations may also apply, and additional training could be required. It is important to read, understand and obey all warnings and instructions provided with the attachment that is approved for suspending loads. Only use properly designed, tested, and approved attachments, designated lifting points, and lifting accessories to support a suspended load. [1] [1] [1]

# Attachments (cont.) ## Lifting and lowering the platform (cont.) Ninth Edition Second Printing Operator's Manual # Attachments # A Suspended Load Hazards ## Work Area Safety General Safety Do not lift a suspended load without first understanding the local, state, federal, or provincial rules, standards and regulations related to the activity. In the USA requirements are set forth in ANSI/ITSDF B56.6 and OSHA 29 CFR 1926.1400-1442. Additional rules, standard and regulations may apply. Additional training may be required. If a telehandler must be used to transport a suspended load, the following precautions for the protection of the operator shall be taken. Read, understand and obey all warnings and instructions provided with the attachment that is approved for suspending loads. Only properly designed, tested and approved attachments, designated lifting points, and lifting accessories should be used to support a suspended load. The telehandler load charts are designed for loads where the load center is stationary. As a suspended load moves, the load center can change. As a result, extreme caution in transporting and lifting, or placing, the load must be observed to minimize the potential for the load to move. A single shackle lifting point is rated for the maximum lifting capacity referenced on the load chart. It can be used as a single lift point, or both lifting points can be used to suspend a load. Never exceed the maximum capacity referenced in the load chart when using one or both lifting points. ## Tip-over Hazards Do not lift a suspended load without the proper and legible load capacity chart for the attachment/telehandler combination you are using. Do not permit the load to swing freely. Always properly tether loads to restrict movement. a a Crossed tethers under stabilizers Genie Part No. 1311461GT GTHᵀᵀ-1056 63
