Hi Steve
Due to the vast number of shapes and sizes of the trucks in the market place it would be very hard to make a general comment on what can and can't be done.
I would follow this route: Contact the particular truck manufacturer for their information on it's safe use.
Consult HS(G)6 Working safely with lift trucks isbn 0-7176-1781-5 which gives very good information on all aspects of truck use, make sure you get the new version as it has been updated last year
