Which of the following will occur if the combined center of gravity for a forklift moves outside of the stability triangle of the forklift?


The forklift will become unstable and tip over.

The forklift will automatically come to a halt to prevent it from tipping over.

The forklift will fall forward but the forks will keep it upright.

Nothing will happen; it is unlikely that a forklift will ever be unstable.

The forklift will become unstable and tip over.

If the CG moves forward of the
drive axle, the truck tends to tip
forward (longitudinal). If the CG
moves outside of the stability
triangle, the truck tends to turn on
its side (lateral).

When the lift truck picks up a load, the truck and load have a new combined CG. The stability
of the lift truck is determined by the location of its CG, or if the truck is loaded, the combined
CG.
