Installing & Using the Attachment
This product is a fork attachment subject to Federal OSHA Rule
(the “Rule”). The Rule states that
you must request that either the manufacturer of your fork trucks, or a professional engineer, determine the attachment
will affect the capacity, operation, and maintenance of your fork trucks. Plates, tags, labels, etc. affixed to the truck must
be changed accordingly. The truck should also be marked to identify the attachment and to display the approximate
weight of the truck and attachment combination at maximum elevation with load laterally centered.
Installation:
1) Adjust the positions of the forks to align with the fork receivers (see above diagrams); then slide the unit onto the forks.
Keep the forks level. Position the LM-HP on the forks as necessary.
2) Attach the safety strap to the fork carriage of your lift truck. Wrap the safety strap around the fork carriage. Attach the
hook at the free end of the safety strap to the safety strap. The strap must be wrapped around the carriage a sufficient
number of times so that there is no slack in the strap. When properly attached, the strap should prevent the unit from
sliding forward on the forks.
Using the Device:
Connect the load to the hook via appropriate rigging. The weight of the load must not exceed the capacity of the hook.
[NOTE: Capacity is cast on the surface of the hook. It is also displayed on tag 993. See
Connect the load to the hook to minimize load swing when the load is lifted off of the ground. Swinging loads might cause
injuries and/or damage equipment.
Record of Original Condition
Before putting the unit into service, make a record of its condition. Photograph both sides of the device. Take close
photos of the hook, shackle, safety strap, and strap hook. Photograph both sides of
Measure the throat openings of both hooks. Collate the photos and written descriptions into a single file. This file
