Forks, Inspect

1. Inspect the forks for cracks and wear. Check that the
fork tips are aligned as shown in Figure 39. Check that the
bottom of the fork is not worn (Item 4 in Figure 39).
2. Replace any damaged or broken parts that are used to
keep the forks locked in position.

Forks, Install

1. Move the fork and carriage so that the top hook on the
fork can engage the upper carriage bar. Raise the carriage
to move the lower hook through the fork removal notch.
Slide the fork on the carriage so that both upper and lower
hooks engage the carriage. Engage the lock pin with a
notch in the upper carriage bar. See Figure 38.
2. If lift truck is equipped with a fork positioner, install inner
fork carriers using four capscrews. Tighten capscrews to
