For load stability, adjust the forks as wide as
possible.
To adjust the fork spread, move the levers or
twist the knob upward and reposition the forks.
Spread the forks to fit the load.
To reduce the risk from serious injury or death
for you and people around you, DO NOT use a
lift truck without safety equipment in proper
operating order.

Safety Equipment
When adjusting the fork spread, be care-
ful not to pinch your hand between forks
and lift bracket.
– After adjusting the fork spread, restore
the stoppers to the original position to
lock the forks.
– Position each fork the same distance
from the center of the backrest extension.
Remove a fork from the carriage to replace it or
to access other parts of the truck for mainte-
nance. Slide the forks, one at a time, to the
installation/removal notch on the bottom car-
riage bar. Tilt the carriage forward, then lower
it until the hook fork disengages the forks from
the carriage. Use a lifting device to move the
forks away from the truck.
• To Remove
DO NOT try to move a fork without a lift-
ing device. Each fork can weigh in excess
of 45 kg (100 lb.)
• To Install
Position the forks side-by-side on the floor in a
location where they can be approached from
the rear by the lift truck. Slowly drive the lift
truck, with the carriage fully lowered and fully
tilted forward, to a point just to the rear of the
forks. Carefully slide the forks, one at a time,
onto the carriage so the top hook of the fork is
placed above the top carriage bar. Raise the car-
riage to engage the top hooks allowing the bot-
tom hooks to pass through the
installation/removal notch. Then carefully slide
each fork on the carriage so both the upper and
lower hooks engage the carriage. Lock the
forks in place by engaging the fork lock pins.
