ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A control system for a work-performing vehicle such as a lift truck, front end loader, or the like, including a source of motive power for driving the vehicle, performing work, or the like, and of the type including a sensor having an electrical output providing an electrical output signal having a characteristic whose magnitude varies according to load distribution on the vehicle. A level detector receives the output signal and provides a further signal, in response thereto, indicative of an unstable load distribution on the vehicle and there is a circuit connected to the output of the level detector responsive to the signal therefrom for disabling the motive power source when the load distribution on the vehicle is unstable to prevent an intensification of the unstable condition. The system includes an additional level detector receiving the output signal from the sensor for providing a further signal indicative that the unstable load distribution condition on the vehicle is being approached, which signal is issued prior to the signal from the first-mentioned level detector. The signal from the additional level detector may be utilized to issue an audible or visual warning, retard the speed of the vehicle, or retard the speed of the work-performing means, all prior to disabling of the motive power source.
