1. Figures represent maximum allowable capacity, and assume level, ground and ideal working conditions.
2. Capacities are calculated at 66% of the minimum tipping loads.
3. Capacities are maximum recommended by PCSA Standard #4. Allowances must be made by the user for such unfavorable conditions as a sort of uneven
supporting surface, rapid cycle operations, or bucket.
4. The combined weight of the bucket and load must not exceed these capacities.
