5.13-3 Adjusting Forks
1. Adjust the location of both forks manually to suit
a pallet pocket spacing as follows:
2. Raise the boom until fork eye is approximately
shoulder high.
3. Tilt the attachment forward until the fork
pivots on the bar, and no longer resting on
the carriage’s bottom rail (see Figure 40). This
prevents binding on the bar, thus aiding its
repositioning.
Figure 40 Fork Pivoting on the Bar
4. Grasping the fork near its eye, push the fork
along the bar until it is in the desired position.
CAUTION
Be careful not to pinch ngers between the fork
and any portion of the attachment.
5.13-4 Changing Forks
The carriage/fork combination is the most frequently
used combination. Different loads may require
changing forks with different ratings.
Figure 41 Changing Forks
1. Lower the boom with fork contacting the ground
until approximately half of the fork oat is used
up.
2. Remove fork bar collars from fork bar.
3. Draw the bar out of the fork eye, being careful
that the fork doesn’t fall over, causing possible
injury (see Figure 41).
4. Reverse steps 1 to 3 to install the replacement
fork.
