Fork sleeves (optional)

To establish a mechanical connection between the fork lift truck and the fork sleeves you have to put the
forks into the fork sleeves and fix it with the locking bolt or with a chain/rope, connected to the eyelet on the
fork sleeves and the lift frame.
It is definitely necessary to establish this connection. Otherwise the device could slide form the forks.

Adjustment of the gripping range

The gripping range of the device (BSZ-KH) must be adjusted and checked absolutely before using it.
Although the abrasion on the rubber grippers must be adjusted.
•
Position the device in the middle or in the centre of gravity of the gripping good and lowering it. The device closes
round the product (automatic release disengages itself) and it can be lifted.
•
The lifting procedure of the device (BSZ-KH) with the support frame must be implemented so long, until the gripping
good is gripped.
•
Check with the help of the pointer (on both sides) if the gripping arms are adjusted correct.
•
Is the pointer (when device is lifted) over the nick, the tension force is adjusted optimal (Fig. 1).
•
Is the pointer (when device is lifted) outside the nick (marking), readjust the tension force with the
help of the 4 spindles (Figure 2). Danger: gripping good could fall down!
