    Abstract: The invention relates to a handling machine (1) comprising: a tilt sensor (11) configured to produce a signal relating to a tilting moment applied to the main body about a tilting axis; displacement sensors (18) configured to produce a signal relating to movements of the handling arm relative to the main body; and a control unit (10) configured to: prevent or stop the movement of the handling arm if the signal representative of the tilting moment is greater than an effective threshold; assign a lowering threshold value to the effective threshold in response to a handling arm lowering movement being determined; and assign an extension threshold value to the effective threshold in response to a handling arm extension movement being determined.

    Abstract: Load-handling vehicle comprising: a load-handling member, a jack (4) for lifting the load-handling member, comprising a lifting chamber (5) and a lowering chamber (6), a fluid source (7), a first fluid connection (8) from the lifting chamber (5) to the source (7), a second fluid connection (9) from the lowering chamber (6) to the source (7), the first connection (8) comprising a safety valve (10) that is open in the direction of the fluid source (7) towards the lifting chamber (5), and that is normally closed in the direction of the lifting chamber (5) towards the fluid source (7). A valve (11) arranged on the second link (9) is sensitive to the pressure of the portion of the first link (8) extending between the valve (10) and the source (7), and a unidirectional fluid circulation line (12), which can be closed according to the pressure weighing on the portion of the second fluid connection (9) between the valve (11) and the source (7), connects the first and second connections (8, 9).

    Abstract: The invention relates to a rolling handling machine (1) having an arm. The machine comprises an alert system comprising a memory in which are stored a plurality of alert rules for triggering at least one action from among transmitting data relating to the determined values of said parameters to a remote server (31); and emitting a visual, and/or sound, and/or vibration signal to alert the machine's driver. The triggering of an action occurs according to the speed of movement of the machine and the angular position of the arm. The invention also relates to an alert method and to a corresponding program product.
