                                                Drum Positioners

                                                Allows fork truck driver to rotate standing drums to the horizontal racking position and vice-
                                                versa. Positive latching system ensures safe handling of drums weighing up to 800 pounds.
                                                Slide the positioner extensions over the vertical drum. With the aid of the Drum Positioner,
                                                rotate drum to horizontal position. Latching system will engage to allow horizontal
                                                positioning of drum. It’s now ready to slide into the rack. Mechanical operation relies on fork
                                                truck to rotate and lift drums. Fork pockets measure 7½"W x 2½"H usable on 20½" centers.
                                                Units feature a welded spacer to protect drum fixtures from damage when rotating.
