Using these pallet forks is quite straightforward. First, make sure your large frame track loader or wheel loader has the skid steer quick attach. Attach the pallet forks securely to your machine. When loading, place the load evenly on the forks to avoid imbalance. Make sure the load doesn't exceed the 10,000 lb. capacity. When entering the skid steer cab, use the cutout in the backrest for easy access. As for maintenance, regularly check the forks for any signs of wear or damage, like cracks or bent tines. Clean the forks after each use to prevent rust and debris buildup. Keep the attachment points lubricated to ensure smooth operation. If you notice any issues, don't use the forks until they're properly repaired or replaced.
