The LW500FN has a tipping load of about 9,000 to 10,000 kg (19,800 to 22,000 lbs) when the bucket is straight. When turning, the tipping load is lower (about 8,000 kg). This means you should not lift more than 5,000 kg (11,000 lbs) for safe operation (50% of tipping load). Always check your machine’s data plate for exact numbers.
