Applications
Use the AFJ35 with a forklift and slab lifter for unloading and transporting stone slabs and other large materials in warehouses, manufacturing areas and construction workspaces.
Selection and Use
- The listed work load limit is 8,800 lb, but the maximum load at full extension is 2,200 lb. Select the load for the actual reach, not the largest figure alone.
- The original equipment recommendation is for a 7,700 lb (3.5-ton) forklift truck. Confirm the complete forklift, boom and lifter arrangement for the intended lift; attachment capacity does not increase forklift capacity.
- Account for the 319 lb boom net weight when planning the equipment setup.
