I am looking for a field calculation/test example to determine the load capacity of forklift truck. Also, I would like to know how to reduce the load capacity due to side-shifter instalation, and/or due to facing a non standard mast (higher). Asme/As std's suggest about 4 tests for this purpose but I could not calculate more than 2 of them ( i do not have the c.g info belong to the above new configurations- i.e. unladen FLT mast up).
