Glossary 

Counterweight: A dead or nonworking load (usually lead or cast iron) attached to or incorporated 

into the rear of a counterbalanced truck, used to balance the load carried on the forks. 

Cushion tire: A solid rubber tire molded to a rim and pressed on the wheel, also called a “solid” 

tire, most effective on smooth and/or paved surfaces. Size is shown as diameter x tread width x 

rim size. 

Drawbar pull: The pull a vehicle can exert on a load attached to is drawbar; depends on power, 

weight, and traction. 

Fork size: Dimensions of each fork expressed as thickness x width x length. 

Fork spread: The maximum distance the forks can be positioned; as measured from the outside 

edge of each fork. 

Free fork height: The distance from the floor to the carrying surface of the forks when the forks 

are at their highest position with the mast in the down position (before beginning to telescope). 

Can determine the ability to lift and carry loads within low overhead spaces such as containers 

and boxcars. This is computed by adding fork thickness to free lift. 

Free lift: The vertical distance the forks can be raised before the mast telescoping begins. 

Front overhang: The distance from the front axle to the front face of the forks. 

Gradeability: The slope up which a rolling machine can move at a uniform speed, stated in 

percentage or degrees. See table on page 21. 

Height to top of overhead guard: The distance from the floor to the highest point on the 

overhead guard. 

High visibility mast: Also known as see through masts or other names specific to a 

manufacturer. A mast designed for maximum operator visibility, usually accomplished by placing 

the lift cylinders to the sides. 

Horsepower: a unit of the rate of work; 33,000 pounds lifted one foot in one minute. Various 

measurements of horsepower include: 

Rated horsepower: The theoretical horsepower of an engine based on its 

dimensions and speed and determined in accordance to a particular standard. 

HP= Bore 2 x stroke x R.P.M. x No. of cylinders 

14,000 

(Note: SAE standard J816; 85 o F (29 o C) @ 500 ft (152m) altitude.) 

1 Tailift Sales Manual 2005

Indicated horsepower: The horse power developed in the cylinders, determined by the use of 

an indicator gauge. It does not include losses due to friction. 

Drawbar horsepower: The horsepower available to move a tractor and its load after deducting 

losses in the power train. 

Shaft, flywheel, brake horsepower: Actual horsepower produced by the engine after deducting 

the drag of accessories. 

Hydrostatic transmission: A transmission consisting of an engine driven variable displacement 

pump and motor providing infinitely variable speed control from zero to top speed without gears 

or clutches. 

Lifting speed: The upward speed of the forks either loaded or unloaded, expressed in feet per 

minute (fpm). 

Load capacity: The maximum load in pounds (or kilograms) that a truck can transport and/or 

stack to a specified height as rated by the manufacturer. Normally stated as a given load center, 

24 inches being the most common. 

Load center: The horizontal distance between the front vertical face of the forks and the 

longitudinal midpoint of an evenly distributed load. Note as the load center shifts forward 

(increases) the load capacity must be derated (decreased). 

Lowered overall height: The height of a mast in its most collapsed position; Either this 

dimension or possibly the height to the top of the overhead guard will determine through what 

passages, doorways, or under what obstructions a truck will pass. 

Lowering speed: The downward speed of the forks either loaded or unloaded, expressed in feet 

per minute (fpm). 

Manual transmission: A transmission employing gear trains and clutches engaged and shifted 

directly by an operator. It may employ up to five forward speeds. 

Maximum fork height: The ultimate surface height of the forks with the mast fully extended. 

Because of pallet or load overhang, stacking at precisely this height may not be possible. 

Maximum fork height, rated capacity: The ultimate height of a lift before the load must be 

derated. This list height is often accomplished with other than the standard mast. 

Minimum aisle, right angle stack: The smallest aisle width in which a truck can accomplish a 

right angle stacking procedure. Because some of a truck’s overall length (and the load itself) is 

ahead of the front wheels, the minimum aisle for a right angle stack need to be greater than the 

truck’s turning radius. 

Minimum aisle, right angle stack = turn radius + front overhang + load length + clearance. 

Outside turn radius: The radius of a circle with its center at the front wheel of the truck on the 

side of the truck towards which the truck is moving. 


Overall length (O.A.L.): The distance from the extreme rear of the truck to the front face of the 

forks. 

Overall width (O.A.W.): The distance between the widest parts of the truck. 

Pneumatic tires: An inflatable tire offering greater traction and cushioning (than cushion tires). 

Most appropriate for outdoor and rough surface areas. Size is typical shown as tread width x rim 

size – ply rating. 

Powershift transmission: A transmission that can be shifted while transmitting full engine 

power to the wheels, usually teamed with a torque converter to effectively absorb drive train 

shock. Available in single, two speed, three speed, and four speed versions. 

Torque: The twisting force exerted by or on a shaft without reference to the speed of the shaft. 

Torque = H.P. x 5252 

R.P.M. 

Torque converter: A hydraulic coupling that utilizes slippage to multiply torque. 

Travel Speed: The maximum speed a truck will achieve in high gear either loaded or unloaded. 

It’s expressed in miles per hour, can be converted to feet per minute by multiplying by 88. See 

table on page 20. 

Tread: The distance from the center line of one tire to the center line of its corresponding tire 

(i.e. front to front, rear to rear). 

Wheelbase: The distance from the front axle to the rear axle. 


Explanation of forklift terms 

Load capacity and load center 

The load capacity of a forklift truck varies depending 

on the horizontal distance between the vertical 

surface of the forks and the center of gravity of the 

load. A forklift truck is equipped with a load chart 

indicating this relationship between the distance and 

the load capacity. The X shown on this load chart is 

called the load center, and the Y which corresponds 

to the X is the maximum load capacity.

Tailift Sales Manual 2005

Maximum fork height 

The maximum fork height denotes the height from the ground to the upper surfaces of the 

forks when the forks are raised to their highest position with the mast positioned vertically. 

Free lift 

The free lift is the maximum lifting height of the forks with the mast position remaining 

unchanged. 

Overall length 

With forks: 

Without forks: 

The length from the front end of the forks to the rear end of the truck body. 

The overall length minus the length of the forks, i.e., the length from the 

vertical surface of the forks to the rear of the truck body. 

Overall width 

The maximum width of a forklift truck with the steering wheel set in the straight ahead 

position. 

Overall height 

The height to the top of the forklift truck. The mast overall height is classified in two 

categories: mast extended overall height when the forks are fully raised and mast lowered 

height the forks are fully lowered. The mast lowered overall height must be compared to the 

height of the overhead guard. This dimension is essential when judging whether or not a 

forklift truck will be able to pass through and entrance to a building or some structure. 

Wheelbase 

The horizontal distance between the centers of the front and the rear axle. 

Front overhang 

Distance from the front axle center to the vertical surface of the forks. 

Rear overhang 

Distance from rear axle center to rear of the truck body. 

Tread 

Distance between the center of the left and right tires on the same axle, or in dual-tire models, 

the distance between the centers of the left and right dual tires. 

5 


Turning radius 

The radius of the locus drawn by the extreme outward side of 

the truck body when the forklift turns either right or left at the 

minimum forward speed with the steering wheel turned 

completely is called the “outside minimum turning radius”. 

The radius of the locus drawn by the inner front tire is called 

the “inside minimum turning radius”. 

Right angle (90°) stacking aisle 

The right angle stacking aisle denotes the minimum width of 

an aisle in which a forklift truck is able to load and unload after 

completing a 90 degree turn. 

Right angle (90°) intersecting aisle 

The minimum turning radius indicates the sharpness of a turn, 

but it does not indicate how large a space is required to make 

a turn. The right angle intersecting aisle is defined as the 

minimum width of aisle which intersects at right angles 

through which the forklift truck is able to pass. The catalog 

data is for a non-loaded with the forks set at their widest 

position. 

Fork length 

The length from the vertical surfaces of the forks to the front end of the forks. 

Floor height 

The height from the ground to the upper face of the floor board. 

Step height 

The height from the ground to the upper face of step. 

Seat height 

The height from the ground to the upper face of the seat when the operator [90 kg (199lbs)] is 

seated. 

6 


Head clearance 

The head clearance from the under face of overhead guard to the upper face of seat when the 

operator [90 kg (199lbs)] is seated. 

Counterweight height 

The height from the ground to the top of the counterweight. 

Backrest height 

The height from upper of the forks to the top of backrest. 

Maximum fork spread 

The distance of outer forks when the forks are moved on the outsider notches of carriage. 

Minimum fork spread 

The distance of outer forks when the forks are move on the inside notches of carriage. 

Maximum ground clearance 

The height from the ground at the position 

where the clearance from the ground is 

considered minimum, except the elevating 

portion of the loading device and around the 

wheels.

Grade clearance 

The angle (α) between the plane contacting the front tires and passing the front lower end of 

the mast and ground is called the “Approach angle”. 

The angle (β) between the plane contacting the rear wheels and passing the rear lower end of 

the forklift truck and ground is called the “Departure angle”. 

The angle (γ) between the lane intersecting on the underside parts of the body where the first 

plane is tangent to the front tires and the second plane is tangent to the rear tires is called 

“Ramp brakeover angle”. 

7 


These angles are essential for assessing the ability of a forklift truck to climb over an obstacle 

on the ground when traveling. 

Approach Angle Departure Angle Ramp break-over Angle 

Performance 

The performance of forklift truck is changed by road surface and oil temperature of the 

transmission or reduction gear etc. 

The value on this handbook shows on the concrete or asphalt road and oil temperature as 

below. 

Engine oil: more than 50 o C (122 o F) 

Transmission: more than 50 o C (122 o F) 

Torque converter: more than 80 o C (176 o F) 

Reduction gear: more than 50 o C (122 o F) 

Hydraulic tank: more than 40 o C (104 o F) 

Lifting/Lowering speed 

The speed of the forks as they move upwards and downwards is expressed both for their 

loaded state and unloaded state. The lowering speed has been limited (reduced) to prevent 

both vehicle instability and damage to the load which can result from sudden drops caused by 

the weight of the load. 

Travel speed 

The maximum truck speed when the accelerator pedal is fully opened. 

Drawbar pull 

The forklift truck is often used as a tractor for a 

trailer or other equipment. In such instances, the 

8 


maximum traction varies according to the engine torque, reduction gear ratio, road surface 

and other factors. It also varies largely depending 

on whether or not the truck is loaded. 

Gradeability 

The “Gradeability” indicates the ability of the 

forklift to ascend a slope. This ability differs 

depending on whether it is loaded or not. The unit 

of measuring the Gradeability varies from 

manufacturer to manufacturer. The conversion 

table given below may be utilized for comparison 

purposes. The Gradeability of Tailift forklift trucks 

is normally expressed in tangent percent (tan 0%).

9. Floor and surface conditions 

Consider both summer and winter conditions in evaluating surfaces: 

9a. Tire type 

Line up on appropriate horizontal and vertical scales. (Area containing intersection of points indicates 

appropriate choice.) If line fall into grey areas, consider most appropriate tire for application conditions. 

Note: Brushed concrete. Asphalt, etc. are considered good friction surface. Polished concrete, metal plate, etc. are 

considered poor friction surfaces. 

9a. Tire experience 

Satisfied Frequent flat poor traction experience 

Details:

CAUTION 

The pivot point of a three wheel truck is found 

between the drive wheels and not outside the 

turning wheel as it is with a four wheel truck. 

Therefore, when calculating right angle stack for a 

three wheel truck, use these formulas. 

When Z is greater than D Then aisle width = Z + Y

When Z is smaller than D Then aisle width = D + Y

MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT 

This agreement, made and entered into by and between, 

hereinafter called the “Customer”, and 

, hereinafter called the “Vendor”. 

WITNESSETH: That, in consideration of the premises, the Customer and the Vendor do hereby covenant and agree in these 

presents as follows: 

1. EQUIPMENT: Vendor hereby agrees to maintain the Equipment described in the addendum on the terms and 

conditions set forth. 

2. MAINTENANCE OF EQUIPMENT BY VENDOR: The Equipment will be serviced and maintained in proper working 

condition by Vendor, and Customer agrees to make the Equipment available for servicing by the representatives of Vendor, at 

reasonable times during Vendor’s business hours. Customer shall, upon request of Vendor, provide an adequate, separate area 

within Customer’s premises in which Vendor may service Equipment. In the event that any unit of Equipment shall be out of service 

for needed repairs, resulting from normal wear and tear, Vendor will arrange to repair such Equipment promptly after notice by 

Customer. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is agreed that Vendor shall not be responsible for delays in servicing and 

maintaining equipment manufactured by others. Vendor shall use all reasonable means to accomplish needed repairs of such 

equipment promptly. 

Tire replacement will be limited to the number of sets shown on the addendum. Any tires in excess of the 

indicated sets are the responsibility of the Customer. 

All repairs will be made during Vendor’s normal working hours of _________ A.M. to ________P.M. 

_____________ thru __________________, which may be amended from time to time. Emergency repairs performed by Vendor 

before or after Vendor’s normal working hours, at the Customer’s request, shall be paid for by the Customer. Such payment shall 

be the difference between the prevailing straight and overtime rates of the Vendor. 

3. SURVEY REPORT: The maintenance rates specified herein only cover predictable normal wear and tear and are based 

on the operating conditions described in the survey report dated__________, which report is hereby made part of this Agreement. 

The rates do not cover accidental damage, misuse, overloading or repairs due to poor housekeeping. Changes in the Customer’s 

operation of the Equipment from that as shown in the Survey Report may require a maintenance rate renegotiation, at Vendor’s 

option. Vendor reserves the right to cancel the maintenance portion of this Agreement if Customer and Vendor cannot agree on 

adjusted rates within a thirty (30) day period, commencing with the date of the Vendor’s request for renegotiation. 

4. CARE OF EQUIPMENT BY CUSTOMER: Customer agrees to take good care of the Equipment and, without limiting the 

foregoing, to use and operate the same within its rated capacity, to restrict the use and operation thereof to careful and 

competent personnel selected, employed, and controlled by Customer, to prohibit anyone other than duly authorized personnel of 

Vendor to make any repairs or adjustments to the Equipment (unless otherwise previously authorized in writing by Vendor). The 

Customer will notify Vendor immediately of any accident, disability, or failure of Equipment, and furnish vendor in writing with all 

pertinent facts, in connection with any accident. Customer will reimburse Vendor for any loss due to damage to or destruction of 

Equipment, excepting normal wear and tear. Vendor will be sole judge of normal wear and tear. 

Customer shall supply all necessary fuel, oils, water, anti-freeze, and other normal needs of Equipment in its daily 

operation. Customer shall perform the daily operator’s checks at the beginning of each shift, in accordance with the 

manufacturer’s recommendations. Customer shall also maintain proper level of water in batteries, recharge the batteries and 

change the LP gas cylinders, as required. Customer, at its own expense and risk, shall be responsible for the foregoing and for the 

installation cost of charging equipment and the storage of LP gas fuel and cylinders. 

5. EXCESS HOURS: The estimated operating hours are shown in the addendum. If the actual operating hours determined 

from meter readings exceed such estimated operating hours, the excess hours shall be billed at the excess hour rates shown in 

the addendum. In the event that any hour meter fails to function, the operating hours shall be ascertained by using the average 

from the previous two (2) months of recorded usage. 


6. PAYMENTS: Customer agrees to pay monthly maintenance charges specified in the addendum, in advance, for the full 

term shown, commencing on the first day of the month immediately following the signing of this Agreement. Customer agrees to 

pay all other proper charges under this Agreement when due. Delinquent payments shall bear interest at legal rate until paid, at 

the option of the Vendor. 

7. TAXES: All sales, use, and other taxes and assessments levied upon or against service maintenance hereunder shall be 

paid by the Customer. 

8. TERMS: The terms on each unit of Equipment shall be as specified in the addendum. 

9. LOCATION OF THE EQUIPMENT: Equipment shall be located as specified in the addendum. Equipment shall not be 

removed from this address without prior written consent of Vendor and shall be used solely in the conduct of Customer’s 

business. 

10. FORCE MAJEURE: Vendor assumes no liability to Customer for failure to perform, if prevented by wars, riots, labor 

disputes, laws or regulations, labor or material shortages, fuel allocation programs, or other causes beyond Vendor’s control. 

Notwithstanding Vendor’s inability to perform under such conditions, the Customer’s obligations as described in paragraph four 

(4), shall continue. 

11. ENTIRE AGREEMENT: Vendor has not made any representations of any kind, nature or description except as are in
