Daewoo Diesel Forklifts Austin

Within the material handling industry, the lift truck has become a key piece of machinery. This equipment is also called a forklift or a powered industrial truck and could carry heavy goods and supplies. These trucks transformed the manufacturing and the warehousing businesses. These days they are used for a wide range of applications and are considered to be essential for material handling.



The forklift needs an operator who uses the control levers to move cargo and materials around the worksite, normally a warehouse or factory. Companies that own their own forklifts have to maintain the machines to ensure they have a long lifespan. Like any equipment parts, lift truck parts, are subject to wear and tear and would become worn over time. In order to make certain the forklift functions safely and efficiently, you must occasionally replace worn or damaged components. Each forklift truck component is made for a particular purpose. Below is a list of several lift truck attachments and their tasks:



Forklift Fork Positioner: The hydraulic attachment referred to as forklift fork positioner helps to position the blades. Tines could move both separately or simultaneously. Without the forklift fork positioner, the operator of the lift truck has to adjust forklift forks by hand for various sizes of loads.



Side Shifter: The side shifter is a hydraulic attachment that allows the forklift operator to laterally shift both the forklift forks and the backrest. This specific attachment makes it easier to place the cargo without having to change the truck's position.



Pole Attachments: Pole attachments are long metal poles used particularly to lift carpet rolls. The poles work better for this purpose compared to forklift forks.



Telescopic Forklift Forks: Telescoping tines are hydraulic attachments that enable the operator to both load and unload from one side. The telescoping forks could handle two pallets of different sizes at the same time. This specific attachment is great for handling pallets in 'double deep racking'.
