Description
HLA Attachments HDS55BO500 Hydraulic Side-Shift Pallet-Fork Carriage is a heavy-duty material-handling attachment designed for compatible Woods loaders equipped with the BO500 quick-attach interface. Rated for a 5,500 lb carriage capacity, it combines an adjustable pallet-fork carriage with hydraulic side shifting for precise lateral positioning. The carriage travels a total of 16 inches—8 inches to the right and 8 inches to the left—making it easier to align the forks with pallets and other loads. This model is supplied as a carriage only; fork tines are not included.
Hydraulic Side Shift for Accurate Positioning
The HDS55 carriage features hydraulic side-shift operation, allowing the carriage to move laterally across the loader. Its 16-inch total travel range provides up to 8 inches of adjustment in either direction. This lateral movement is especially useful when approaching pallets, positioning adjustable fork tines, or making alignment corrections during material-handling work.
Because the side-shift function is incorporated into the carriage, operators can adjust the fork position from side to side while using the loader. The result is a practical pallet-fork platform for applications where controlled placement and efficient load alignment are important.
5,500 lb Rated Carriage Capacity
Built around the HLA Attachments HDS55 base carriage, this model has a rated carriage capacity of 5,500 lb. Its heavy-duty configuration is intended for demanding pallet and material-handling applications when used with an appropriately matched loader, fork tines, and operating setup.
The adjustable-tine carriage design allows compatible pallet-fork tines to be positioned to suit different pallet and load widths. As this is a carriage-only configuration, tines must be selected separately for the intended application.
