This would be a total of two forward facing LEDs and one rear facing LED. The light on the right fender shall have a housing, similar to the blackout light on the left fender, to protect the light from damage. The work lights shall be adjustable and located to illuminate maximum work area. The work lights shall not be the highest point on the vehicle. These lights shall be protected from likely damage or breakage.

Load capacity indicators.

Load chart. The LCRTF shall be provided with a clearly legible chart, visible to the operator in his operating position, giving load handling capacities in conformance with the ANSI/ITSDF B56.6 requirements for capacity, rated capacity, and nameplates and markings (see 6.5.5 for additional information). The Military defines reach as the horizontal distance from the vertical plane on the foremost portion of the forklift (excluding boom and fork carriage) to the inside heel of the forks for handling palletized loads.

This definition is used for the forklift load chart for consistency with other military operator manuals, such as the ATLAS II TM 10-3930-677-10, Figure 2, given in Appendix I. This figure shows the forward reach of the carriage capacity chart from the vertical plane of the front of the front tire to the inside heel of the forks.

Longitudinal Load Moment Indicator (LLMI). The LCRTF shall include a LLMI to alert the operator of a possible overload or instability problems with a visual display and an audible alarm. In the event of an overload or instability condition, the LLMI shall disable the boom extension handling function of the forklift until the load is brought within rated capacity limits. The LLMI shall be compliant with BS

EN 15000, Safety of industrial trucks - Self propelled variable reach trucks - Specification, performance and test requirements for longitudinal load moment indicators and longitudinal load moment limiters.
