Stability triangle applies to 3-point trucks, which is almost all of the most common lift trucks, such as 3-wheel and 4-wheel Counterbalance Trucks, even Reach Trucks and Order Pickers.

The Crown TSP is not a 3-point truck. It is a 4-point suspension system, therefore no stability triangle. This provides excellent stability, and greater capacity at higher elavations, unlike a Raymond Swing Reach which is a 3-point truck. The Crown requires a very level floor.

It is true that minimum and maximum battery weight is specified, however in most cases, a battery, or batteries perhaps for a TSP, which exceeds the max weight permitted won't fit in the box anyway. Max battery weight pretty much fills the battery box completely.

Fact of the week
According to studies published in the English Journal of Medicine, the impact of daylight savings is revealed by a 24% increase in heart attacks on the Monday following the spring shift forward. When clocks move back in autumn, heart attacks drop by about 21%, suggesting that loss of sleep is an important driver.
