The majority of forklift masts will tilt back about 5 degrees and occasionally systems have to account for an uneven ground slope as well. To accommodate this, Rice Lake recently made some system improvements to acquire NTEP approval at +\/- 7 degrees, giving newer CLS models the highest out-of-level compensation of any forklift scale on the market. And better yet, we achieve that accuracy with our simple 4-point calibration procedure.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s especially nice about this for operators is that they don\u2019t need to change how they would pick up a load or safely carry it in order to get the scale to work.
