Description
HLA Attachments HDO5542BO500 5,500 lb Power-Tilting Pallet Fork combines heavy-duty material handling capacity with hydraulic side-to-side leveling for work on uneven job sites. This configuration features 42-inch adjustable tines, a 5,500-pound rated capacity, and cylinder-powered rotation that levels the fork carriage up to 45 degrees in either direction. Fitted with HLA’s BO500 quick-attach mount for the KIOTI 1590 loader QTach interface, it is designed to help operators position, lift, and handle palletized or supported materials where the loader and load may not be sitting level.
Hydraulic Leveling for Uneven Ground
The power-tilting design allows the fork assembly to rotate hydraulically, providing smooth adjustment from the operator’s controls. With a leveling range of 45 degrees in each direction, the attachment can compensate for changing terrain and uneven working surfaces. This makes it especially useful when approaching or positioning loads on sloped, irregular, or challenging job sites.
Hydraulic leveling also reduces the need to reposition the entire machine simply to correct the fork angle. The operator can adjust the carriage orientation to improve tine alignment and load positioning while remaining within the attachment’s specified operating range.
5,500 lb Material Handling Capacity
The HDO5542 base attachment is rated for a capacity of 5,500 pounds. Its 42-inch tines provide practical reach beneath pallets and other compatible supported loads, while the adjustable tine design allows spacing to be changed for different load dimensions. This combination of capacity, tine adjustment, and powered leveling makes the attachment suitable for demanding pallet and material-handling applications.
