Operation

  • Position forks to desired distance apart and at waist height.
  • Ensure the forks surface is clean, dry and free from foreign objects.
  • Identify the magnetic side of the cover and face down toward the fork, position the point of the cover approximately 20 – 30mm from the fork tip.
  • Holding the opposite end to the tip, roll the fork cover over the length fork towards the truck and test for correct adherence and alignment ensuring the covers do not protrude over the edge of the fork. Note a small section of the cover will attach to the fork back (Shank).
  • The Magnetic rubber fork covers are now ready for use.
  • Removal is the opposite of installation.

Maintenance

  • The Magnetic rubber fork covers should be inspected before use for general condition with attention paid to: A – Splits and tears in the rubber surface, B – Debris stuck to the magnetic surface.
  • Damage or failure must be reported and rectified immediately prior to re-use.

Health & Safety

  • The manager of the department or section where the attachment is to be used must be responsible for ensuring the operators are fully conversant with the attachment, its operation, maintenance and correct installation.
  • While positioning the fork covers, keep fingers free of the spaces between the fork surface and the covers due to risk of crushing between the surfaces.
  • Do not wear metal based necklaces, bracelets etc. as they will be attracted to the magnetic field generated by the magnets on the bottom side of the fork covers.
  • It is recommended that suitable gloves are worn for the installation.
  • When not in use the covers can be attached to the side of the truck (Outer mast channel, truck chassis, overhead guard legs for example).
