4 Things to Know Before BUYING A Carton Clamp

Do you want a removable attachment?
Before you buy a forklift clamp attachment, decide whether you want a permanent attachment or one designed to be easily disconnected. Removing an attachment without quick disconnects on the hydraulics can be very time-consuming.

Do you need an attachment that can handle pallets?
Most (but not all) carton clamp forklift attachments can pick up both palletized and non-palletized loads. 

Capacity and Stability
Adding a forklift clamp will de-rate your forklift’s capacity, and if you use a clamp that tips, the load can affect the forklift’s stability. To get an idea of how much an attachment will impact the capacity of your forklift, contact one of our forklift attachment experts or try this capacity calculator. 

Updated Data Plate
Adding an attachment is considered modifying your forklift, and OSHA requires you to get a new data plate (also known as a name plate).

Buying a forklift attachment from a reputable dealer saves time and money. A dealer can confirm your new attachment can be safely used with your existing equipment and save you the headache of obtaining a new data plate.
