- Tighten thumb screws securely onto the forks.
- Lower the forks to just above the ground and drive towards the material to be scooped.
- Once the scoop is full, tilt the forklift mast back and move to the tipping area.
- Release the secondary lock mechanism and pull the release handle downwards to empty the scoop.
- Lower the scoop to the ground; it will self-close and lock. Re-engage the secondary lock mechanism before reuse.
For Auto-Release Operation:
- Follow steps 1-5 above.
- Position the scoop height with the actuator plate aligned over a yard skip or hopper.
- Lower the scoop until the release mechanism disengages.
- Once emptied, raise the scoop, pull away, and lower it safely to the ground. The scoop will self-close and lock. Re-engage the secondary lock mechanism before reuse.
Maintenance Guidelines:
- Inspect weekly for:
- Weld points.
- Wear and distortion of fork pockets and thumb screws.
- Damaged components.
- Locks, latches, and pivot points.
- Tighten all bolts regularly.
- Keep pivot bars, latches, and locks greased; oil the spring.
- Address surface rust with inhibitors, primers, and paint.
- Report and repair any damage before reuse.
- Certified for six months; re-testing is required per HSE guidelines thereafter.
Health & Safety Notes:
- Ensure operators are fully trained in the attachment’s use and maintenance.
- Confirm the truck and attachment can handle the intended load.
- Engage the safety lock mechanism until ready to empty.
- Avoid driving into fork pockets without retracting thumb screws.
- Do not shock load the scoop.
- In case of operational failure, return the scoop to the floor for inspection.
- Drive at safe speeds to prevent injuries or damage.
- Use the toothed leading edge for breaking down compacted materials like wet sand.
