We welcome you as an owner of a set of Gearmore Quick Attach Bucket
Forks. Please read the following instructions and refer to them when
required:
These forks are intended to convert your loader into a forklift for limited use. Since your loader
was not specifically designed as a forklift, extra care must be taken when operating, such as the
following:
1.
Know the capacity and limitations of the forks.
2.
Know your machines characteristics and operating procedures.
3.
Study and know the safety procedures in this manual and the manual
provided with your tractor.
4.
When in the field, refer to the safety decals on the forks (
Ref. A
). If at any time, over the
life of the forks, your safety decal becomes damaged, contact your dealer or Gearmore for
free replacement (909) 548-4848.
