1. INTRODUCTION
This manual contains all the necessary information on the installation and operation of the PL and PL-T
Fork Positioners.
Some of the maintenance operations should only be carried out by professional technicians. If you
require this information and the maintenance steps, please contact your dealer. Also included in this
manual are a number of safety instructions to create a safe working environment.
With this equipment you can position the forks and sideshift the load (PL-T), resulting in more accurate
handling and placement of the load. This makes it possible to reduce your overall handling time,
reduce damage to pallets and products and increase your manoeuverability, even through tight
corners.
Check your machine manual to make sure you opt for the equipment with the correct load capacity.
Do not use this product for any other purposes.

operation. The operator and all persons who come into contact with the equipment should read it
carefully and regularly and have access to it at all times.

Contact your dealer for any further questions or concerns you may have.
We guarantee a long period of trouble-free operation if the unit is operated and maintained correctly.
We hope you will enjoy working with your attachment.
