Telescopic lift trucks
Telescopic forklift models are outfitted with a pronged lift on an arm that extends over the top of the truck offering great height and versatility. The arm, or crane, is called a telescopic boom. The boom enables the person utilizing it to maintain a high degree of control while raising the cargo to great heights. Standard forklifts can not move the cargo away from and towards the cab of the forklift, while a telescopic forklift can allow that movement. The telescopic forklift is normally used in agriculture and construction. It is better for applications where greater control and lift is necessary.
A lift truck carton clamp attachments are recommended in cases needing high volume carton handling. The attachment has arm pads with four way reversible rubber linings which enable the operator to apply uniform clamping force when lifting a cargo. It comes with a backrest that protects the cargo from damage.
A sleep sheet forklift will normally utilize a slip sheet attachment for storing systems which don't utilize pallets. The attachment clamps onto the slip sheet and pulls it onto the forklift forks. This type of system is handy for overseas shipments and intra-corporate deliveries.
A man basket is a lift platform designed specifically to hoist workers. The basket attaches to the forklift forks, held in with a chain or strap that is to be secured directly to the forklift carriage. The platform has railings to protect the employees from falling to the ground. Brackets on the platform are used for fastening the worker's safety harness.
