4.1. FITTING THE DRUM CLAMP ONTO A FORKLIFT TRUCK
4.1.1. Ensure the forklift truck’s forks are the correct distance apart to fit into the Drum Clamp.
4.1.2. Drive the forklift forwards enabling the forks to enter the 2 large slots in the Drum Clamp (fig.1) and continue forwards until the
forks are fully inserted in the Drum Clamp.
4.1.3. Tighten down fully the 2 large T-Bar tightening bolts.
4.1.4. If driving a long distance before picking up any drums fold back the operating jaw mechanism onto the main frame of the Drum Clamp. 4.2.
PICKING UP A DRUM USING THE DRUM CLAMP
4.1.5. If necessary fold out the jaw mechanism.
4.1.6. Drive the forklift slowly towards drum to be picked up, ensuring the Clamp jaws are just above the top of the drum (fig.2). When
jaws are above the drum, slowly lower forks and as the jaws are lifted by contact with the drum they will also start to widen out
around the drum.
4.1.7. Continue to lower the forks, the jaws will slide down over the drum. Lift the forks and the jaws will clamp around the drum just
under the top lip (fig.3).
4.1.8. Continue to raise the forks to lift the drum off the ground.
4.2. TO RELEASE DRUM FROM THE DRUM CLAMP
4.2.1. . Lower drum onto ground (fig.4) and continue to lower the forks slowly so clamp jaws slide down the sides of the drum.
4.2.2. As the clamp jaws reach the first lip around drum (fig.5), they will begin to lift and as they do this they will also start to widen.
Continue to slowly lower forks and as the clamp jaws widen more, also slowly reverse the forklift truck and the drum will be
released from the Drum Clamp (fig.6).

MAINTENANCE
