NOTE: Select a floor location that is flat and level as possible.

NOTE: A new drive tire, caster tire, and load wheels should be installed and the caster adjusted prior to inspection.

Secure a plumb-bob line to one of the forks.

Raise the forks 12 in. (30.5 cm) off the floor and mark the position (on the floor) at the suspended plumb bob point.

Raise the forks to full elevation (without making contact with the mechanical stops) and mark the new position on the floor at the suspended plumb-bob point.

Measure the distance between the two points in the truck’s fore and aft direction. This is the truck’s back tilt.

Measure the distance between the two points in the side to side direction. This is the truck’s lateral lean.

NOTE: Maximum lean for a particular truck can be determined by the following formula: Maximum Lean (in.) = 0.005 x EH (in.)

Compare the measured lateral lean to the calculated dimension to determine if it is within the acceptable limit.
