Operation
Adjusting the fork arms of the pallet forks
In order to prevent the fork armss from slipping or sliding sideways, the safety
pins of the fork arms must be correctly locked in the notches on the fork frame.
☞ Before using the pallet forks, check whether both locking levers (a) on the
fork arms are folded down and safely engaged in the fork frame!
When the fork arms are moved under the load, they must have the biggest possible spac-
ing between them, or be introduced at the positions or in the fixtures
provided for to this effect.
The fork arms must always be evenly aligned with the fork frame.
☞ Adjust the fork arms as follows:
• Set the locking lever to the vertical position a
• The fork arms can be moved on the fork frame
• Slide the fork arms to the required distance until the safety pin engages in a slot on
the fork frame
• Fold down the locking lever again, position b
• The upper edge of the locking lever must be flush with the edge c.
