Machine Description
The Model 285XGR Super-Duty Forklift-Karrier is designed to lift, transport, and dispense
a ribbed 55-gallon (210 liter) steel drum 22.5” (57 cm) in diameter. The maximum full-
drum capacity is 2500 Lb. (1134 kg). The capacity is derated to 1250 Lb. (567 kg) for a
half-full drum. The half-full rating is based on the tilt mechanism’s capacity for handling an
unbalanced bottom-heavy drum.
Options (shown at right)
To handle an 18.5” (47 cm) diameter ribbed 30-gallon (114 liter) steel drum with model•
285XGR, quickly and easily install model 55/30-19GR Diameter Adaptor in the drum
holder. Then simply lift the Diameter Adaptor back out to go back to handling a 55-
gallon (208 liter) steel drum.
