Overview

ISO 22915-15:2020 specifies the tests used to verify the stability of counterbalanced fork-lift trucks with articulated steering and with mast, equipped with fork arms or load-handling attachments. The document is part of the ISO 22915 series and references ISO 5053-1 (terminology and classification) and ISO 22915-1 (general verification of stability). It is explicitly not applicable to trucks fitted with retractable devices such as retractable masts or forks.

This part of the standard focuses on practical test set-up and verification using a tilt table, datum points and prescribed lift heights to ensure repeatable, objective stability verification for manufacturers, test laboratories and conformity assessment bodies.

Key Topics

• Test scope and exclusions: Applies to counterbalanced forklifts with articulated steering; excludes trucks with retractable devices.
• Test conditions and positions: Detailed position requirements for mounting the truck on a tilt table are provided (see clauses on load and rear axles and test positioning). Tests include longitudinal and lateral stability checks with the truck at specified articulation and mast positions.
• Datum points and reference locations: The standard defines load datum point E and tilt-table reference points F and F1. Procedures describe how to establish and, if necessary, return the datum relationship when the mast is elevated.
• Lift heights for travel simulations: For tests that simulate travel (Tests 2 and 5) the upper face of the fork arms at the heel, when fully tilted rearward, shall be positioned at 300 mm above the tilt table for trucks with rated capacity ≤ 10 t and 500 mm for trucks with rated capacity > 10 t.
• Verification criteria: Table 1 in the standard lists the test matrix (Tests 1–5), the modes (travel, stacking/retrieving), load leading/trailing, mast positions and the tilt-table angles or percentage criteria used to determine pass/fail.

Applications

• Manufacturers: validate design stability and document compliance during development and type approval.
• Test laboratories: implement repeatable tilt-table procedures and datum point checks for certification testing.
• Safety and compliance teams: use the standard to create inspection and maintenance test plans that reflect the verified stability envelope.

Key practical benefits include consistent test setup, objective pass/fail criteria, and clearer traceability for stability-related design choices and operator safety measures.

Related Standards

• ISO 22915-1 - Industrial trucks - Verification of stability - Part 1: General (general test principles referenced by this part).
• ISO 5053-1 - Industrial trucks - Terminology and classification - Part 1: Types of industrial trucks (terms and definitions).
• Other parts of the ISO 22915 series for additional truck types and stability verification methods.

For implementation, users should consult the full ISO 22915-15:2020 text and the referenced normative documents for complete test parameter values and the full Table 1 test matrix.
