Using the drum carrier:
NOTE: Numbers in parentheses () correspond to item numbers in the
Exploded View and Bill of Materials on p. 3.
1. If necessary, adjust the positions of the forks to align with the fork pockets
of the drum carrier. The forks should be centered on the carriage when
the adjustment is finished.
2. Mount the carrier on the forks/tines of your lift truck by sliding the fork
pockets over the forks. Fork pockets must be oriented as shown in the
below diagrams, i.e. with pivot pins down. Move the pockets towards the
heels of the forks until they are in front of the heels of the forks a distance
equal to the height of your drum up to the 1
st
roller ring (see diagrams
below). If the pockets are too close to the fork heels, then the drum will
not be able to rotate freely.
3. Attach the safety chains to the carriage without slack .
4. Open the drum ring by unlatching the clamp.
5. Drive to the drum you need to move. Raise the forks above the drum.
Lower the ring over the drum. Continue lowering the forks until the ring is
just below the first (drum) rolling ring.
6. Latch the clamp. The clamp should firmly grasp the drum when latched. If
the fit is loose, tighten the clamp. To tighten the clamp:
a. Open the latch. Grasp the latch lever & pull it away from the drum
ring.
b. Wind the square nut (4) further up the threaded shaft of the latch lock
(2).
c. Close the latch. Press the latch lever toward the drum ring.
NOTE: Repeat steps a-c until the clamp firmly grasps the drum.
7. Raise the drum a few inches above the ground. Transport it as needed.
8. Tilt/rotate the drum: ALWAYS stand to the side of the forks! DO NOT
stand in front of the drum. Rotate the drum slowly because contents shift
as the drum rotates.
Record of Normal Condition:
Before using the product for the first time, make a written record that describes its appearance and operation.
Describe the condition of the drum ring, fork pockets, clamp mechanism, and hardware. Take photographs of the
unit and of each feature. Take photographs of all labels applied to the product. Add the photographs to the
record. Describe where each label is located. Install the unit on the forks of your forklift and lift a drum. Record
your observations about how the clamping mechanism operates and how the drum ring engages the drum. This
record establishes “normal condition” .
Inspections and Maintenance:
When conducting the following inspections, compare your observations to the Record of Normal Condition to
determine if a component is in normal condition. Do not use the product unless every component is in normal
condition. Cosmetic changes like damaged paint/powder coat do not constitute changes from normal condition
unless significant rusting or corrosion of the affected areas has also occurred. Apply touchup paint to all affected
areas as soon as damage occurs. Contact Technical Service (contact information appears on the cover page) to
order replacement parts.
Lower the drum and record your observations. This written record establishes “normal condition”. When
conducting future inspections compare those observations to the written record to determine whether a
component is in normal condition.
