Range

Build variants

Each variant is fabricated to order. Start from the closest one and change what you need in the configurator.

Fixed carriage

Straightforward, strong and the usual choice for general pallet and bag work.

Hydraulic positioning

Tines set from the cab when load widths change through the day.

Extended tines

Longer tines where loads are deep or awkward to reach.

Load backrest build

Full backrest where stacked or loose loads need holding against the frame.

Configurable

Before you order

Questions the team gets asked

If yours isn't here, message the workshop — you'll get a straight answer rather than a brochure.

Will it fit my machine?
Send a photo of the headstock or carriage and two measurements and the team confirms the bracket in writing before any steel is cut. The Fits My Machine guide lists the common carriages.
What tine length do I need?
Long enough to carry your deepest pallet or bag safely, short enough to work in your yard. Tell the team the loads you lift and it is specified from that.
Is hydraulic positioning worth it?
If load widths change several times a day, yes — it saves the operator getting out. For a single pallet size, a fixed carriage is stronger and cheaper.
What is the lead time?
Every unit is fabricated to order, so the build slot and delivery date are confirmed in writing with your quotation rather than advertised as a fixed figure.
