ribbed 55-gallon steel drum 22.5” in diameter. The maximum full-drum capacity
is 800 Lb. The capacity is derated to 500 Lb. for a half-full drum. The half-full

Operating Instructions
Before sliding forklift forks into the fork tubes, adjust forks to an 1.
inside spread of 25” minimum. Lock forks into position on the
forklift carriage.
Drive the forklift forward to slip the forks into the fork tubes. 2.
Tighten tee screws (item #8) to secure the Forklift Karrier to
the forks.
Pull the linch pin (item 109), open the toggle clamp and swing 3.
both hinged bands to the open position. Push Kontrol-Karrier
against drum so that saddle will encircle drum.
Drive the forklift with the Forklift Karrier near oor level to 4.
position the saddle band around the middle of the drum between
the ribs.
Secure the drum: Close the two hinged bands around the drum, 5.
latch the toggle clamp and insert the linch pin (see detail A).
Remove pull chain (item #11) from chain box on base frame 6.
and place end of loop near operator’s seat.
Raise forks to clear the oor and transport drum in vertical 7.
position to dispensing location.
To pour drum: pull on chain (item #11), rotating drum to angle 8.
required for dispensing. To control the pouring angle of the
drum, pay out one side of chain and pull the other side to
prevent the drum from free-wheeling.
If the Forklift-Karrier is equipped with the MORStop Tilt-Brake, 9.
there is no need to hold tension on both sides of the chain loop.
Braking is immediate and self-actuating, without additional
steps by the operator. To add the MORStop Tilt-Brake to your
Forklift-Karrier, order kit for eld installation (part # 3900-P).
When dispensing is completed, rotate the drum back to vertical 10.
and return drum. While transporting, ensure that the drum is
raised away from the oor to prevent the drum bottom from
interfering with a pallet or other obstacle.
Maintenance
Periodic inspection for the general condition of structural and
mechanical components is imperative for safe and efcient
operation.
Lubricate gear teeth and roller chain.1.
Clean and oil saddle hinges and other moving parts periodically. 2.
Clean and lubricate more often in environments where dust, dirt
or other foreign particles will effect the performance of moving
parts.
Periodically inspect all moving parts, framework, drum holder 3.
and contact areas for signs of wear, fatigue, or loosening.
Tighten, adjust, or replace parts as necessary to prevent failure
and maintain proper function.
Worn or damaged parts must be properly replaced with the 4.
correct, genuine Morse parts.
