Operating Large Wheelie Bin Rotator
To fit the attachment, slide the forks into the fork pockets until they are fully engaged. Screw the clamps down firmly to retain the attachment on the truck.
In order to pick up the wheelie bin for transportation or pouring, set the girdle to the horizontal position by using the handle or chain fitted to the geared Turning Unit/gear box. Remove the pins from the trunnion locators. The truck forks must then be positioned at a height such that the girdle fits around the centre of the bin and the bin trunnions sit into the trunnion locators. The bin is secured by placing the webbing strap hook through the link provided and operating the ratchet lashing unit to tighten the girdle. Replace the trunnion locator pins. Ensure that the drum is held securely before lifting. Once lifted into the pouring position, the bin is rotated by means of the handle or continuous loop chain. The worm gear locks the bin at any desired angle. Hydraulic models are also available to eliminated the need to leave the truck cab, the units can be fitted with a hydraulic worm gar reducer, which connect via two hoses to the forklift auxiliary inputs, rotation is then carried out hydraulically via a lever from the truck cab.
