ISO 22915-8:2018 PDF

ISO 22915-8:2018 deals with the safety of industrial trucks, as defined in ISO 5053-1, relative to their stability and the verification of that stability. For the purposes of the ISO 22915 series, industrial trucks are wheeled, self-propelled or pedestrian-propelled vehicles, excepting those running on rails. They are either operator-controlled or driverless and designed to carry, tow, push, lift, stack or tier in racks.

This document specifies an additional test for verifying the stability of a truck stacking with mast tilted forward and load in the elevated position. It is applicable to the following types of truck:

a) counterbalanced trucks with tiltable masts, as specified in ISO 22915?2;

b) reach (retractable mast or forks) and straddle trucks with tiltable masts, as specified in ISO 22915?3;

c) pallet stackers with tiltable masts, as specified in ISO 22915-4;

d) bidirectional and multidirectional (retractable mast or forks) trucks with tiltable masts, as specified in ISO 22915?7;

e) rough-terrain trucks with tiltable masts, as specified in ISO 22915-13;

f) counterbalanced trucks fitted with articulated steering with tiltable masts, as specified in ISO 22915-15.
