Fork Mounted Jibs and Cranes

Operation

• Remove existing forks from forklift carriage.
• Position Jib so as the load beam is parallel to the finish floor level.
• Remove the quick release bottom hangers by pulling out the safety ‘R’ clip and retracting the retaining pin.
• Position the forklift behind the Jib backplate and centralise the forklift carriage with the jib backplate.
• Drive towards the Jib backplate with the mast tilted forward and hook the top carriage rail under the top hangers of the Jib backplate, ensuring that the location peg on the jib backplate locates into the central castellation of the forklift carriage.
• Whilst raising the forklift carriage tilt mast back to the vertical position until the attachment is clear of the finish floor level.
• Reposition the quick release bottom hangers ensuring the safety ‘R’ clip is correctly inserted.
• Position the swivel hook and shackle to the desired lifting point, ensuring that the shackle is adequately tightened.
• The attachment is now ready for use.
