When used as a loader the single boom (rather than twin arms) is very highly loaded and is a weakness, even with careful design. A vehicle which has a 5,000 lb (2,300 kg) lift capacity with the boom retracted may be able to safely lift as little as 400 lb (180 kg) with the boom fully extended at a low angle.
Designed to center-load haul trucks with capacities of up to 360 tonnes (400 short tons), the L-2350 provides an operating payload of 73 tonnes (80 short tons), a 7.03 metres (23.1 ft) lift height, and an 3.5 metres (11.5 ft) reach.

Skid steer loaders have very good maneuverability and traction but typically lower lift capacity than forklifts. Skid steer loaders excel at snow removal, especially in smaller parking lots where maneuverability around existing cars, light poles, and curbs is an issue with larger snow plows. Skid steers also have the ability to actually remove ...

A Safe Load Indicator (SLI) or an Automatic Safe Load Indicator (ASLI) is a device which is installed on mobile or portal cranes to alert the operator if the lift is exceeding the safe operating range of the machinery. [1] In some cases, the device will physically lock the machinery in circumstances it determines to be unsafe.
