SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Vestil strives to identify foreseeable hazards associated with the use of its products. Material
handling is dangerous and no manual can address every conceivable risk. The end-user must
exercise sound judgment at all times. Acquire a copy of the latest version of ANSI B56.1from
www.ITSDF.org. Apply all portions of Part II “For the User” that are relevant to front end
attachments. The following recommendations complement the relevant provisions of B56.1.
WARNING
Unsafe use of this product could result in serious personal injury or death.
Read and understand the entire manual before assembling, installing, using or servicing the
product. Read the manual to refresh your understanding of proper use and maintenance
procedures. Maintenance personnel must read the manual before servicing the drum lifter.
DO NOT exceed the maximum rated load. See Label 1153 on product; see LABELING
DIAGRAM, p. 9.
DO NOT use this device with rough terrain lift trucks or telehandlers (boom trucks). ONLY use it with
high lift fork trucks having a vertical mast and carriage.
DO NOT mount the hopper on stackers or manually propelled lift trucks.
DO NOT operate the truck carrying this device on unimproved surfaces. Only operate on concrete or
asphalt.
Mark your forklift truck to identify the drum lifter attachment and show the approximate
weight of the truck and attachment combination at maximum elevation with load laterally
centered. Capacity, operation, and maintenance instruction plates, tags, or decals must be
changed accordingly.
Inspect the drum lifter as instructed in the INSPECTIONS & MAINTENANCE section on p. 7-8.
DO NOT use the device unless it is in satisfactory condition. If you observe any structural
damage (for example, significant damage to either or both fork pockets, the safety
chain/strap, or the drum-gripping mechanism), tag the unit “Out of Service” and report the
damage to maintenance personnel. DO NOT use the lifter until it is restored to satisfactory
condition.
Inspect the drum before engaging it with the lifter. Make sure that the drum (particularly the
rim and rolling hoops) is in good condition. DO NOT attempt to lift or transport a damaged
drum with the lifter.
Stay clear of the drum and lifter while the lifter is in use! No part of your body should ever be
beneath any part of the elevated lifter or drum.
ONLY use this device to move drums and only those drums that are compatible with your
product, i.e. steel, plastic, and/or fiber. Compatibility information is provided with the
EXPLODED VIEWS on pages 3-5.
When transporting a drum, only raise it a few inches above the ground.
Transport drums slowly. Avoid bumps, potholes, etc. when transporting a drum which could
disrupt the lifter’s grasp on the rim.
Avoid sudden stops when transporting drums. Brake gradually. Sudden stops could cause
the lifter to slide on the forks and could damage the safety strap, hook, and/or quick link. Turn
slowly. Sharp, quick turns could disrupt the clamp on the drum and damage the lifter.
DO NOT modify the lifter in any way. Unapproved modifications automatically void the
LIMITED WARRANTY (see p. 10) and might make the product unsafe to use.
DO NOT use the lifter UNLESS all labels are in place, readable, and undamaged. See
LABELING DIAGRAM on p. 9.
For the Eagle Beak™ mechanism to work properly, the drum plus contents must weigh at
least 50lb. (~22.7kg).
The chain is an essential safety-enhancing feature. Wrap the chain around the fork carriage
and fasten the free end to the chain or quick link with no slack.
