Telehandler Study Guide with Complete
Solutions
Trained, Authorized - Answer✔️✔️-Only _________ and ____________ persons must be
permitted to operate a telehandler
Employer - Answer✔️✔️-The ___________ must verify that the following has been
covered as part of operator's training
Inside - Answer✔️✔️-The operator's manual should always be located _______ the
operator's cab.
Class 7 - Answer✔️✔️-Telehandlers are classified as ________ Variable Reach Rough
Terrain Forklifts in the USA and Canada
Evaluation, 3 - Answer✔️✔️-An _______________________ of each powered industrial
truck operator's performance shall be conducted at least once every
_____________years.
Center of Gravity - Answer✔️✔️-is the point on an object at which all of the object's
weight is concentrated. For symmetrical loads, the center of gravity is at the middle of
the load.
Counterweight - Answer✔️✔️-is the weight that is built into the truck's basic structure and
is used to offset the load's weight and to maximize the vehicle's
resistance to tipping over.

Fulcrum - Answer✔️✔️-is the truck's axis of rotation when it tips over.
Grade - Answer✔️✔️-is the slope of a surface, which is usually measured as the number
of feet of rise or fall over a hundred foot horizontal distance (the slope is expressed as a
percent).
Lateral Stability - Answer✔️✔️-is a truck's resistance to overturning sideways.
Line of action - Answer✔️✔️-is an imaginary vertical line through an object's center of
gravity.
Load center - Answer✔️✔️-is the horizontal distance from the load's edge (or the fork's or
other attachment's vertical face) to the line of action through the load's center of gravity.
Longitudinal stability - Answer✔️✔️-is the truck's resistance to overturning forward or
rearward.
Moment - Answer✔️✔️-is the product of the object's weight times the distance from a
fixed point (usually the fulcrum). In the case of a powered industrial truck, the distance
is measured from the point at which the truck will tip over to the object's line of action.
The
distance is always measured perpendicular to the line of action.
Track - Answer✔️✔️-is the distance between the wheels on the same axle of the truck.
1. Avoid hazardous situations
2. Always perform a pre-operation inspection
3. Always perform function tests prior to use
