FORKS
a) It is necessary to have two persons to remove and replace the forks as they are heavy and
awkward to handle manually.
b) The forks are slid onto the upper carriage beam and are held in place by means of spring-loaded
pins that locate into the notches of the beam.
c) They must always be equally spaced from the centre line of the carriage to ensure equal loading
of the forks and must be as far apart as the load or pallet will allow.
d) The forks must always be tilted back except when entering or discharging the load.
e) The boom must always be as close as possible to the ground when the Teleporter is moving.
Also this enables the driver to use the mirror on the right side to view the rear right side of the
Teleporter.
f) Changes of direction must be made slowly with due consideration to the load being carried and
the proximity of the rear right hand side to any vehicle or obstruction.
g) Drive slowly at all times
– never rush at the job.
