4.2. Explanation of type plate<br />
The type plate is the plate that is located on the upper side of each telescopic fork. The type plate is<br />
mounted on the left as well as on the right fork. Both left and right must be seen from the positions of<br />
the fork-lift truck driver. The type plate contains important information about the technical<br />
specifications of the telescopic fork. Figure 4.2 shows an example of a type plate. The letters in the left<br />
plate can be found in Table 4.1 that represents the description and the measuring unit. The right plate<br />
is an example of how the type plate can be filled in.<br />
