Global Industrial 795400 Drum Positioner Racker 800 Lb

Product Description

The GLOBAL INDUSTRIAL 795400 is a forklift-mounted drum positioner and racker lifter designed to invert standing drums from the vertical position to a horizontal racking position. The operator controls the entire process from the forklift seat, eliminating the need for manual drum handling. Built for loads up to 800 pounds, this unit uses a positive latching system to keep drums secured throughout the move. Heavy-duty welded steel construction with a powder coat yellow finish gives the unit long-term durability in warehouse and industrial environments. A 36-inch safety chain is included for securing the positioner to the forklift carriage.

This drum positioner is suited for warehouses, distribution centers, and manufacturing facilities that handle standard 55-gallon drums. It is intended for use with sit-down counterbalance forklifts equipped with a standard carriage. The seat-operated design reduces operator fatigue and eliminates the physical strain associated with manually repositioning heavy drums. Typical applications include drum storage racking operations where drums must be laid horizontally after transport in the upright position.

Installation Notes

Installation and operation should be performed by a trained, licensed forklift operator familiar with attachment use. Verify that the forklift carriage capacity meets or exceeds the combined weight of the attachment and load before use. Secure the included safety chain to the carriage as directed before lifting any drum. Inspect the latching mechanism and chain before each use and remove the unit from service if any component shows wear or damage.
