Lifting a Buggy with a Forklift
1. Make sure the bucket is completely empty.
2. Lower the bucket completely against the buggy frame.
3. Lower the operator’s platform to the stand-on position.
4. Use a forklift rated to lift a minimum 2,000 LB. payload. The forks on the lift must not exceed five (5) inches in
width and one and one-half (1-1/2) inches in thickness.
5. The forklift should only be operated by licensed, OSHA approved operator.
6. Insert the two (2) forks into the two (2) lifting pockets on either the right or left side of the buggy in the locations
shown below. The forks must be inserted completely under the buggy frame and fully engage the two (2) pock-
ets on the opposite side of the frame. Continue inserting the forks into the pockets in the buggy frame until the
forklift mast touches the buggy.
7. Lift the buggy up only high enough to clear the highest obstacle. Tilt the forks back so the buggy is secure
against the forklift mast.
NOTE: all rubber tired models (excluding track models) built after December 2003 have addi-
tional lifting pockets on the buggy frame to permit lifting the buggy from the REAR. Follow the pro-
cedure outlined above with the following changes:
1. Raise the operator’s platform to the upright / walk-behind position.
2. Insert the forks into the two (2) lifting pockets at the rear of the buggy. Continue to insert the forks into the
rear pockets until they engage the lifting pockets behind the front wheels and the mast of the forklift is against
the uplifted operator’s platform.
