Daewoo Diesel Forklifts Tucson

In the material handling industry, the lift truck has become a key piece of machinery. This machinery is also called a forklift or a powered industrial truck and could lift heavy cargo and supplies. These trucks changed the warehousing and the manufacturing industries. Now they are considered to be essential for material handling and are used for a wide range of applications.



A forklift is a machine which is driven by an operator who utilizes the truck to move loads around a worksite or warehouse. Companies that own their own forklifts should maintain the machinery to make sure they have a long lifespan. Similar to any equipment parts, forklift parts, are prone to wear and tear and will become worn over time. In order to ensure the forklift works safely and efficiently, you should replace damaged or worn parts occasionally. Every lift truck component is made for a particular purpose. Below is a list of several forklift attachments and their purposes:



Forklift Fork Positioner: The forklift fork positioner is a hydraulic attachment that helps to position the forks. It can move the forks either simultaneously or separately. Without the forklift fork positioner, the operator of the forklift has to manually adjust forklift forks for various sizes of loads.



Side Shifter: The side shifter is a hydraulic attachment that enables the lift truck 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 blades are hydraulic attachments which enable the operator to both unload and load from a single side. The telescoping forks can handle two pallets of various sizes at the same time. This type of attachment is great for handling pallets in 'double deep racking'.
