Brake test course shall be level, clean asphalt, brushed concrete,level non-skid, or equivalent surfaces, and of adequate length to permit safe conduct of the test.

7.9.2 Weight Test Loads. Only known values of test weights shall be used for testing. Dynamometers, or other recording equipment, are not permitted in lieu of dead weights. The assembled test load, including rigging, shall be accurate within +5/-0 percent of the nominal test load. The weights shall be measured using calibrated equipment with a minimum accuracy of ± 2 percent (of scale) traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology.

7.9.3 Marking of Test Loads. The test weight(s) shall be marked (e.g., steel stamping, etching, engraving, raised metal deposit, or stenciling) with a unique identification number and the weight in pounds.

7.9.4 Conduct a Functional Test, under no load conditions, evaluating the performance of each individual MHE. Record the results for each onto a MHE Safety Certification Form, enclosure 2.2.3.

7.10 Conduct a Static Discharge Test in accordance with ref 2.1.1 thru 2.1.4. (TYPE EE, EX, and HS/ORDNANCE MHE only). Place a conductive plate on the deck/floor so that the static conductor (either tires or ground straps) rests upon it. Using a calibrated Megohmmeter in accordance with manufacturer's recommendations, place one electrode on the plate and the other on an unpainted section of the chassis. Apply 500 volts and take the resistance reading. The MHE shall be rejected if the resistance is greater than 250,000 ohms. Record discharge reading. Record the results for each onto a MHE Safety Certification Form, enclosure 2.2.3.

7.11 Conduct an Operational Weight Test in accordance with ref 2.1.1 thru 2.1.4.

7.11.1 Position the lift truck at rest on a smooth, level surface with the mast vertical. Secure the truck as necessary to prevent overturn. Perform testing with the hydraulic system at normal operating temperatures.

7.11.2 Position a rated load (100% of the MHE's SWL) on the forks such that the center of mass of the test load is on the truck’s centerline and at the rated load center. Ensure the load is centered laterally. Raise the forks 6 inches off the deck/floor, tilt full back, and hold for 2 minutes.

7.11.3 Shift lateral to full limits and then raise load to full mast extension. Repeat lateral shift operation and then return load to deck/floor.

7.11.4 With the mast vertical, forks centered and rated load on the forks, raise the forks to the maximum height. After 2 minutes, measure the downward and tilt drift, as applicable, from the reference points.

7.11.5 Remove the load and restraints and visually inspect the forks, mast, and other structural components for cracks, elongation, permanent deformation, fractures, or failures. Record the results for each onto a MHE Safety Certification Form, enclosure 2.2.3.

7.11.6 The forklift truck shall be rejected if the mast drifts vertically more than 1-3/4 inches. If equipped with a tilting mast, the forklift truck shall be rejected if it tilts more than one degree. If equipped with a tilting carriage, the forklift truck shall be rejected if any movement is noted when tilting the carriage rearward the second time. The forklift truck shall be rejected if it lifts, shifts or tilts the load too slowly or unevenly, the hoses and tubing have bulgings or distortions, the frame and mast assembly have fractures or broken welds, or if the forklift truck leaks hydraulic fluid. When raising or lowering the mast, if the forklift truck does not operate freely and/or binds or catches on the overhead guard or any other component, it shall be rejected.

7.12 Conduct a Brake Operation Test in accordance with ref 2.1.1 thru 2.1.4.

7.12.1 Load forks with a rated load (100% of the MHE's SWL). Test load shall bear against load backrest, shank of forks, or carriage and need not be at the rated load center. Ensure the test load is centered laterally. For MHE with tilt capability, the forks may be tilted to stabilize the load.

7.12.2 Determine the maximum speed of the MHE. This may be accomplished by determining the time it takes the MHE to pass through a 25-foot course as follows: Measure a 25-foot straight course. Transverse the course in REVERSE at maximum speed from a running start. Bring the machine to top drive speed before reaching the start line. Using an appropriate means to measure time (e.g., stop watch), note the time it takes for a reference point on the MHE to move from the start of the course to the end. Alternately, the maximum speed may be measured using a device such as a radar/laser gun.

7.12.3 With the MHE at maximum speed and after passing through the 25-foot course, apply the service brakes to achieve maximum deceleration without sliding the tires. Record the stopping distance measured from the point of brake application.

7.12.4 Using table 6-2 of ref 2.1.4, find the maximum allowable stopping distance associated with the speed or the 25-foot course time.

7.12.5 MHE shall be rejected if:

a. The recorded distance exceeds the maximum allowable stopping distance listed in table 6-2.

b. The brake pedal travels over half the distance to the floor.

c. The brake pedal travels gradually to the floor (spongy brakes) after brakes are applied.

d. The brakes do not gradually engage (grabbing) causing sudden or immediate stops.

e. Brake fluid is leaking, exceeding manufacturer’s specifications or standard industrial maintenance practices.

f. Any component fails.

7.13 Conduct a Parking Brake Test in accordance with ref 2.1.1 thru 2.1.4.

7.13.1 Test the parking brake by engaging the parking brake on the unloaded MHE. Attempt to drive the MHE forward by applying a moderate amount of power to the MHE. If the MHE moves, adjust the parking brake, and repeat the parking brake test. The MHE shall be rejected if proper adjustments cannot be achieved.

7.14 Conduct a Safety Braking/Disconnect System Test in accordance with ref 2.1.1 thru 2.1.4.

7.14.1 Test the safety braking/disconnect system by moving the unloaded MHE forward at a moderate speed (less than 5 mph) and engage the travel control disconnect. The MHE shall be rejected if the system fails to engage and bring the MHE to a stop.

7.15 Conduct an Overload Weight Test in accordance with ref 2.1.1 thru 2.1.4. SHALL ONLY BE CONDUCTED WHEN MHE HAS UNDERGOINE REPAIRS or MODIFICATIONS AFFECTING LOAD-BEARING COMPONENTS. Position the lift truck at rest on a smooth, level surface with the mast vertical and the forks six inches (150 mm) above the floor. Secure the truck as necessary to prevent overturn. With a crane or another lift truck, place the 150% test load on the forks such that the center of mass of the test load is on the truck’s centerline and at the rated load center. Let the 150% test load remain on the forks for two minutes. Remove the load and restraints and visually inspect the forks, mast, and other structural components for cracks, elongation, permanent deformation, fractures, or failures. Record the results for each onto a MHE Safety Certification Form, enclosure 2.2.3. For estimating purposes assume 4 forklifts will require an Overload Weight Test.

7.16 Conduct a Lifting Eye Test in accordance with ref 2.1.1 thru 2.1.4. SHALL ONLY BE CONDUCTED WHEN LIFTING EYES HAVE BEEN REPAIRED OR REPLACED. Apply a vertical lifting force of 150% of the weight of the MHE to the attachments using an appropriate lifting device (e.g., sling). Hold the force for 2 minutes. Examine the lifting lugs and points where attached to the MHE. Record the results for each onto a MHE Safety Certification Form, enclosure 2.2.3. For estimating purposes assume 6 forklifts will require a Lifting Eye Test.

7.17 Testing is to be coordinated with the OMT Rep to allow for observation if deemed necessary. Demonstrate current calibration of all test equipment prior to any testing.

7.18 Clean, prime and paint all new and disturbed surfaces to match the surrounding areas.

7.19 MHE Safety Certification Marking. Equipment passing periodic testing must have the previous weight test tags/markings removed and the following information either stenciled or labeled, per ref 2.1.4, the testing activity's name and the expiration date (month/year). Expiration indicates the date the MHE should be scheduled for its next 18 month periodic test, SAFETY CERTIFICATION / WEIGHT TEST
