Reply To: IT24F Lift capacity

Based on the numbers above max lifting capacity in the LH column is 7155 lbs with the machine articulated to the max 40-deg angle. At the same articulation angle the static tipping load is 9541 lbs, so a factor of 33.3%. Apparently wheel loaders/IT are load-rated according to SAE standard J1197 when equipped with forks. According to that the safe load limit is 50% of the full-turn static tipping load. Attached a spec sheet for an IT38H which seems to bear that out. Based on that the IT24F would be rated 4770 pounds under the SAE J1197 standard.
