Note that the towing of trailers by a forklift fitted with a tow jib can impose overturning forces on the forklift and additional force on the equipment and braking system. The load being towed must be no greater than 25% of the mass of the forklift. Towing should be carried out in a slow, smooth and controlled manner and on level ground. Sharp turning must be avoided at all time to prevent jack-knifing of the trailer.
