ADJUSTING/MOVING FORKS
Carriages may have different locations where forks can be positioned. Two different
methods can be used for repositioning, depending upon the carriage structure.
Note:
Apply a light coating of appropriate lubricant to ease sliding of forks or fork
bar.
To slide forks:
1. Ensure attachment is properly installed. Refer to
page 5-13.
2. Elevate attachment to approximately 1,5 m (5 ft) and tilt carriage forward until
fork heel is free from attachment.
3. Stand at the side of the carriage. To slide fork toward the center of the carriage,
push the fork near the fork eye. To slide fork toward the edge of the carriage,
pull the fork near the fork eye. To avoid pinching, do not place fingers or thumb
between the fork and carriage structure.
If removing fork bar is necessary:
1. Rest forks on ground.
2. Remove fork bar.
3. Reposition forks.
4. Reinstall the fork bar and fork bar retaining mechanism(s).
