Rules for operating with stabilising jacks
Make sure that you know the capacity of the machine both with and without the stabilising jacks, (if fitted). This information can be found on the capacity plate on the truck, usually inside the cab.
Do not lift loads greater than the capacity of the machine.
Bear in mind that the weight of a pack of wood can double when it's wet
