Ask Bob Courtesy of IVES Q: How far apart should the pylons be for the forklift maneuvering during practical training? A: It depends on the size of forklift you are using and the degree of maneuverability that is expected from the operators. In any case, if you take the distance from the center of the front/drive axle to the rear of the counterweight and set the cones apart by the same distance, that is as tight as it needs to be because the forklift can't turn any sharper than that. Look at Pivot Point Steering Set-up in your Trainer's Manual for a drawing that may help you visualize it. |
