Forks, Adjust

NOTE: During the adjustment of the forks, the heel of the
forks should not be touching the ground.
The forks are connected to the carriage by hooks and lock
pins. See Figure 37 and Figure 38. The lock pins are
installed through the top fork hooks and fit into slots in the
top carriage bar. If pin does not remain engaged in carriage
158
slot, replace with new pin. Adjust the forks as far apart as
possible for maximum support of the load. Hook forks will
slide along the carriage bars to adjust for the load to be lif-
ted. Raise the lock pin in each fork to slide the fork on the
carriage bar. Make sure the lock pin is engaged in the car-
riage bar to lock the fork in position after the width adjust-
ment is made.
