ANSI Z245.60 establishes dimensional requirements for <br />the cart. <br />TEST PROCEDURE (Meets the requirements of ANSI Z245.30): <br />1. Prepare a ramp with a slope of 5 degrees. The ramp must be of sufficient size that a cart can be moved onto <br />the cart with no portion of the cart overhanging the edges of the ramp. <br />2. There is to be no wind. <br />3. Move an empty cart onto the ramp and orient the cart with the front of the cart facing up the ramp. Note any <br />tipping or movement. Turn the cart so that the front of the cart is facing sideways on the ramp. Note any <br />tipping or movement. Turn the cart so that the front of the cart is facing down the ramp. Note any tipping or <br />movement. <br />4. Repeat step two with the cart loaded to the standard loading as specified in the ANSI standard. The loading <br />material to occupy at least 70% of the capacity of the cart. <br />TEST RESULTS: <br />Empty t dela'wa to <br />Reu <br />Front facing upward <br />Stable <br />Front facing sideways (right) <br />Stable <br />Front facing sideways (left) <br />Stable <br />Front facing downward <br />Stable <br />Filled (loaded Ibs) Front facing upward Stable <br />Front facing sideways (right) Stable <br />Front facing sideways (left) Stable <br />Front facing downward Stable <br />SUMMARY: The cart passed the ANSI Z245.30 and Z245.60 standards since non -movement in three orientations <br />is met. <br />Sincerely, <br />*,S,oA.elPEural Engineering <br />Services, PLLC <br />'�t'' llll rt�rl"��� <br />d <br />�E <br />035798 <br />" <br />�� ��t1IulY4wt��� <br />
