Accurate fork alignment

The company states: "Damages are most often caused when the operator fails to accurately align the forks/attachment with the load. Sideways alignment is determined by steering the truck, which is a skill that can be easily taught, and any errors can be corrected by using side-shift. 

"However, the operator’s seating position and limitations of the human visual system mean that all operators will struggle to correctly determine vertical (especially above 4m) and angular alignment."  

Installing ForkAngles mast-tilt indicators to trucks can help by ensuring the forks are accurately aligned with the load every time.

This, in turn, will improve load handling efficiencies, reduce wear to the truck and reduce fuel consumption as well as eliminating damage to pallets, loads and racking caused by misaligned forks/attachments.

Capable of achieving accuracies of 0.02 degrees of tilt angle, ForkAngles can be used with all attachments. Because ForkAngles is analogue, it allows the operator to not only judge when the forks are aligned, but also how quickly they are approaching alignment.  

ForkAngles is mounted onto the mast in front of the driver’s line of sight, so its use quickly becomes instinctive.
