Push-Pulls

Products of every kind are being handled on slipsheets instead of wooden pallets. Slipsheets are being used in various industries such as food, beverage, glassware, building materials, agricultural, paper, chemical, hardware and the automotive parts industry.

Ideal model for those companies where the handling of goods on slip sheets is not sufficient to justify the use of a dedicated fork lift truck. 

Thanks to an extremely quick and effective new fitting system, the Fork-Mounted Push Pull offers the possibility to convert a conventional fork lift truck with forks into a specially equipped machine to handle loads on slip sheets. Increasing productivity without any compromise for safety. 

The driver just has to position the forks under the platens, tilt the mast forward, lift the carriage up, engage the upper hooks, lock the lower mounting hooks in place and connect the hydraulic couplers. These simple steps now make the push-pull ready for operation.

Wide windows in the push plate and gripper jaw allows for excellent visibility in both retracted and extended positions when clamping the slip-sheet. 

4 degrees tilting faceplate, when fully extended, helps prevent any damage to the product.

Gripper jaw is actuated by two cylinders, assuring a perfect force distribution on the clamping bar to help prevent any damage to the slipsheet.

Pressure relief valve guarantees structure and load protection.

The vertical position of the pad is adjustable should the pad become worn or damaged, resulting in less maintenance costs.
