Okay...then where are the support points?
The reason being is that I paint a true picture of what the forklift is 'thinking' as the operator works the truck. I intorduce the 3 support points on all (or now most) sit-dwon CB f/ls, then describe the center of gravity, and then tremendously well (pat myself on the back, sorta speak) I highlight the 4 major items that affect the center of gravity inside the stability triangle. I do this extremely well, even blows away the engineers. Believe it or not, the participants walk away understanding the physics of the truck inside out, and well.
It is too long too explain how I do it, on this forum, since it takes me 35 minutes of explaining, analogies, along with my Powerpoint presentation, to get it into their heads, but it works. As I said, although I do not know of any in my area, I was wondering tho', if I HAD to put a presntation together, what is the stability factors, as I initially asked?
I know these trucks steer from the front. There goes the rear pivot box (suspension, steering) theory, and since I would assume it drives from the rear (although I may be wrong), this truck is screwy.
Just looking for some input.
Thanks.
