4.3. Explanation of indication type<br />
A trademark of <strong>Meijer</strong> <strong>Special</strong> <strong>Equipment</strong><br />
Often A at Figure 4.1 contains the type of the telescopic fork. From the type code again various<br />
information can derived. Table 4.2 gives the description of the various sections of the type code.<br />
Here is an example:<br />
RE4-35-1350-1000<br />

0750 Stroke (length difference between retracted and extended fork) mm<br />
Table 4.2 Various sections of the type code and their description<br />
4.4. Capacity<br />
The type plate, which is mounted at the upper side of the telescopic fork, shows among other things<br />
the maximum carrying capacity per telescopic fork. This data is also engraved on the side of the<br />
telescopic fork. With the following load diagram the capacity per telescopic fork or per couple of<br />
telescopic forks can be defined for each load distance. The correction factors are shown vertically and<br />
the load distances are shown horizontally counted in mm from the front side of the back of the fork. On<br />
the following page an example of the operation is given.<br />
