LOADING THE SYSTEM
Step 1 Check that the pallet is the correct style and size for the installation.
Step 2 Check the underside of the pallet for loose, split or damaged boards.
Damaged pallets should not be entered into the racking.
Step 3 The fork lift truck driver inserts the forks into the pallet, and picks the pallet
up ensuring that it is square and that the forks are evenly spaced within the
pallet. Any skew in the pallet at this stage cannot be corrected and will
remain when the pallet is placed in the rack.
Step 4 The fork lift truck drives with the pallet, and approaches the rack squarely
aligning itself centrally with the desired storage lane.
Step 5 Slow down and stop the truck at the entrance to the lane. Reduce any tilt
on the mast and raise the pallet to the required storage level ensuring the
pallet is still central between the pallet rails.
Step 6 Drive slowly into the storage lane towards the intended storage location,
keeping the pallet and truck mast clear of contact with the pallet rails or any
other part of the rack structure.
Step 7 Stop the truck before making contact with previously positioned pallets.
Step 8 Carefully lower the pallet onto the pallet rails, ensuring no contact with the
sides of the pallet rail or the pallet behind. There should be a minimum
20mm bearing on the beam rail.
Step 9 When the pallet is securely positioned lower the forks until they are free
from the pallet and reverse the truck carefully out of the storage lane,
checking the aisle is clear.
Step 10 When clear of the rack lower the forks to just above ground level before
driving off.
Follow the above stacking sequence to avoid potential access beneath stored pallets.
