1.2 Mechanical indicators
Mechanical indicators can be used on racks to indicate that the pallet is not supported on the beam in
front and it needs to be centred in relation to the other beams. These indicators should never be
used as stops, since the rack was not designed to support repeated strain on these indicators.
Installing these guides must be assessed on a case by case basis, based on the layout of the
premises, manufacturer recommendations and annual inspections.
