Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.178(o)(6):Extreme care shall be used when tilting the load forward or backward, particularly when high tiering. Tilting forward with load engaging means elevated shall be prohibited except to pick up a load. An elevated load shall not be tilted forward except when the load is in a deposit position over a rack or stack. When stacking or tiering, only enough backward tilt to stabilize the load shall be used: On or about December 5, 2022 the employer failed to ensure that the forks of the powered industrial fork truck used to elevate the hydraulic ram cylinder with a sling were not tilted forward. The forward tilt allowed for the sling to slide off the end of the fork apparatus. The load at the time was already picked up and being positioned.
