1400 kg
1400 kg
b
1255 kg
1255 kg
c
1040 kg
1040 kg
Correct answer
d
840 kg
840 kg
Why?
From side B, the dimension along the forks is 1400 mm, so the load centre distance (odległość środka ciężkości ładunku) is c = 700 mm. There is no 700 mm column, so conservatively use 800 mm, where the maximum rated capacity (udźwig) is 1040 kg at a height of 3600 mm. The 1255 kg value applies to c = 600 mm, with the load centre closer to the mast, and cannot be used here.
