USING THE LIFTER
Step 1: Adjust the positions of the forks on the carriage (of your lift truck) to align with the fork pockets (of
the lifter).
Step 2: Mount the drum lifter on the forks of your lift truck by slowly driving forward until the forks contact
the ends of the pockets.
Step 3: Attach the safety chain to the fork carriage.
Wrap the chain around the carriage. Fasten the
snap hook to the chain or quick link (see exploded
parts diagrams) without slack. The chain must not
be able to disconnect from the carriage during use,
i.e. slide off of the carriage.
WARNING
Unsafe use could result in death or serious injury.
The chain is an essential safety-enhancing
feature. Wrap the chain around the carriage and
fasten the free end to the chain with no slack. The
chain will not prevent the drum lifter from sliding off
of the forks if it is improperly connected to the fork
carriage.
Using this device affects lift truck center of
gravity. Before using the lifter, US Federal regulation
29 CFR 1910.178 requires you to contact the
manufacturer of your lift truck and request: 1)
Written approval; 2) Markings for the lift truck that
identify the attachment and provide the
approximate weight of truck and attachment at
maximum elevation with load laterally-centered.
DO NOT use this lifter UNTIL your lift truck is marked
with corrected capacity tags.
FMDL-1 and FMDL-2 Eagle Beak™ and DFDL-3 models
NOTE: In order for the Eagle Beak™ mechanism to work properly, the drum and its contents must weigh AT
LEAST 50 lbs. (~22.7kg).
Step 4 Engage the selected drum with the lifter: Raise the forks a few inches off of the ground/floor, and
tilt the mast of you fork truck forward. Drive slowly towards the selected drum until the lower jaw of the
Eagle Beak™ (items no. 12 & 13, p. 4) contacts the side of the drum directly beneath the lip of the drum.
Step 5 Grasp the lip of the drum: Slowly raise the forks until the upper jaw engages the top of the drum lip.
Continue to raise the forks until the drum is elevated a few inches above the floor/ground. Attach one
end of the ratchet strap to a loop on the drum saddle (Item 11, p. 4). Attach the other end of the ratchet
strap to the loop on the other side of the saddle; then work the ratchet mechanism until the strap is tight.
Step 6 Transport the drum: Straighten the mast and transport the drum to the desired unloading location.
Raise the forks when/as required by conditions along the travel path.
Step 7 Release the drum: Lower the forks until the drum is just a few inches above the floor, and then
remove the ratchet strap. Tilt the fork truck mast forward. Slowly lower the forks until the Eagle Beak™
disengages the lip of the drum and the drum is fully supported by the floor/ground.

Step 4 Position the fork lift and drum lifter: Raise the forks and adjust the location of the fork lift to position
the drum grippers above the top of the drum. Tilt the mast forward, i.e. point the forks toward the floor.
Step 5 Position drum grippers: Lower the forks; the drum grippers will slide over the lip of the drum. Position
the grippers below the lip or the middle rim as desired.
Step 6 Transport the drum: Straighten the mast and raise the forks until the gripper engages the lip or rim,
and then slowly raise the forks until the drum is elevated a few inches above the floor. Tilt the mast back;
then transport the drum to the desired location.
Step 7 Release the drum: First tilt the mast forward and then slowly lower the forks until the drum is fully
supported by the floor. To finish disengaging the drum, back the fork truck away from it.
