Pallet Paws Make Pick-Up Easy

Pallet Paws Make Pick-Up Easy MISCELLANEOUS EQUIPMENT Forklifts Hydraulically driven Pallet Paws fit the things they’re picking up The width adjustable and rotating forks may have been designed to pick up balled and burlapped trees and other nursery-related objects but the potential is much greater “We introduced them to nurseries and the landscape market in 2008 ” says Aaron Oltmans DPM Inc “When the operator brings the edge of the forks to an object the forks rotate up to fit the side of whatever they’re grasping ” A heavy-duty double cylinder moves both forks in or out as desired The forks lay flat to be used as regular pallet forks but are hinged in the back to rotate to the perfect grabbing angle Once hydraulic pressure is released the forks return to their flat position “Pallet Paws can be used to move a pallet with objects on them and then move the individual objects off the pallet ” says Oltmans The Pallet Paws’ forks have a parallel spread of 14 1/2 in to 41 in The heavy-duty forks weigh 900 lbs and are available in lengths of 72 and 80 in They can handle weights such as large boulders of up to 5 000 lbs The cylinder is rated for 3 000 psi with only 2 to 5 gpm needed for operation The 2023 price for Pallet Paws was set at $6 950 “Most Pallet Paws go out for use on skid steers but we’ve made them for use with tractor loaders big wheel loaders and forklifts ” says Oltmans Contact: FARM SHOW Followup DPM P O Box 36 Davenport Neb 68335 ph 402-364-2186 or toll-free 800-669-4408; sales@nurseryjaws com; www nurseryjaws com
