2.2.2  Commencement of operation K55A and K55C 

 

1.

 

Remove the 

clamping

 

strip

 

(2)

2.

 

Remove the forks from the forklift truck or forklift mast. 

3.

 

Make sure the fork carrier is straight and clean. 

4.

 

Place the box rotator onto the fork carrier of the forklift truck or forklift mast. 

5.

 

Make sure the locking cam slots into the recess in the centre of the fork carrier. If no recess is available: 

 

a)

 

Grind such a recess, or 

b)

 

Grind the locking cam from the box rotator and attach a sound locking cam on the spot of an existing recess 
in the fork carrier. In doing so, make sure the box rotator sits secure in the centre in front of the fork carrier, 
so it is unable to slide sideways. 

 
6.

 

Attach the 

clamping strip (2)

 using two 

bolts M16 x 70

 

(3)

. Secure these bolts tight! (140 Nm)! 

7.

 

Check to make sure the hydraulic hoses are clean before connecting them to the rapid-action couplings, to 
prevent any debris from entering the hydraulics of the machine. 

8.

 

Connect the hydraulic hoses to the dual-action connection on the fork carrier.  

9.

 

Remove the 

check nuts M16x25 (26)

 in the lower plate of the fork carrier of the box rotator. Suspend the 

forks to the fork carrier and attach the 

check nuts M16x25

 

(26)

10.

 

Adjust the plug-in fork, depending on the width of the boxes to be rotated. 

11.

 

Make sure that the 

locking pin of the folding fork (45)

 completely fits into the locking hole to prevent the 

arm from coming loose during the tilting movement. In doing so, the 

eccentric locking pin (46)

  must be 

pointing downwards.  

12.

 

Turn the lever of the 

ball valve (62)

 so it opens, before rotating. It will be open when the lever is parallel to 

the hydraulic pipe. 

13.

 

Subsequently check that the hydraulic hoses can move freely and check that the system is not leaking oil. 

14.

 

Check the correct operation of the box rotator by controlling the hydraulic functions. 

 

 

The WIFO box rotator is now ready to be used.
