Forklift Crane Booms
Forklift Crane Booms enable forklifts to carry long or irregularly shaped materials or materials that are hard to reach. They are a cost-effective alternative to jib and gantry cranes and are easier to store when not in use. By significantly adding to your forklifts’ potential applications, and simplifying more advanced material handling challenges, a forklift crane boom can help ensure that no application is beyond your reach.

The lifting capacity of a forklift using a crane boom decreases as the centre of gravity moves outwards. Overloading the crane boom may cause the forklift to tip over. To prevent such an incident, please ensure that the crane boom is positioned at the heel of the forks and secured to the forklift carriage, and follow the weight guidelines.
