It's important to remember that when you employ the Powr-Grip Forklift Adapter, the forklift must have sufficient capacity for the combined weight of the lifter and its maximum load when the load is located 8-3/4" [222 mm] outward from the fork tips or 50-3/4" [1289 mm] outward from the fork stops, whichever places the load at a greater distance from the forklift's front wheels.
