ISO 22915 deals with the safety of industrial trucks, as defined in ISO 5053, relative to their stability and the verification of that stability. For the purposes of ISO 2291 5, industrial trucks are wheeled, self-propelled or pedestrian-propelled vehicles, excepting those running on rails. They are either operator-controlled or driverless and designed to carry, tow, push, lift, stack or tier in racks.
The centre of gravity of the load shall be offset laterally by the maximum amount it is anticipated will be encountered in actual operation.
The test shall be conducted on the side on which the truck is least stable. The mast shall be retracted and tilted fully rearward where the design permits. The load shall be raised to the maximum elevation.
If the manufacturer shows other possible ratings on the capacity plate (see Clause 6), tests shall be carried out with maximum load at the corresponding height as well as with the load corresponding to the maximum height as agreed between the interested parties.
Trucks with attachments shall be subjected to the foregoing stability tests, as appropriate.
The test loads and their positioning shall be those specified on the capacity plate(s) of the truck equipped with the attachment when used under the special operating condition and in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
The lift heights required in the tests shall be measured between the surface of the tilt table and the underside of the load in its approved handling position or the underside of the load handling means,whichever is the smaller.
The stability of the truck with the load fully offset and at maximum elevation shall be verified in accordance with test 3 of ISO 22915-2 and ISO 22915-3, tests 3 and 4 of ISO 22915-4 or test 4 for double stackers only, when carrying two loads, or test 8 of ISO 22915-7 9), depending on the type of truck.
The capacity under this special operating condition, as determined by this additional stability test, and the load offset shall be indicated on an information plate in view of the operator in the normal operating position according to ISO 3691-1.AS 22915.20 pdf download.
