We have had the instance of a broken tyne on a 12 tonne forklift. The heel was well within tolerance. The cause we think is continious tip handling on 2440mm long tines with a 4-5 tonne load. Does anyone have info on where there may be information with regards to this practice in order to inform and retrain the operators or to inform the customer of the results cause by this other than the most obvious.
