Frequently Asked Questions
How long should fork extensions be?
Fork extensions should suit your load length and your forklift capacity. A common guide is that extensions should not be much longer than the forks they slip over. Send us your fork size and load and we will recommend a length.
What is a pallet puller?
A pallet puller clamps onto a pallet and connects to the forklift with a chain, so pallets can be pulled out of trailers, containers and tight spaces where the forks cannot reach.
What capacity are your forklift work platforms?
Our forklift work platforms are rated to 1,200 lbs and have a mesh cage, checkerplate floor and fork pockets with a safety chain.
Are your fall protection kits certified?
Yes. The harness is certified to CSA standard Z259.10, Class A, and the lanyard to CSA standard Z259.11, Class E4.
Can a drum grabber handle plastic drums?
Our drum grabbers are designed for 55-gallon steel drums, gripping under the rim or rolling hoops.
