Dutch to English translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - Engineering (general) / lifting using a forklift
Dutch term or phrase: doosband
Draai eerst de doosband wat omhoog zodat die niet door de vorken geraakt kan worden.

Refers to a machine being lifted using forklift truck, just cannot figure out what "doosband" might be!

Thanks for your help.

cardboard box conveyor belt
Explanation:
Not being a packaging machine expert, I can only approximate the term in English. But it seems to be the conveyor belt at the bottom of the machine transporting boxes, being sensitive to damage from the forklift forks. When the belt is set higher, the forks encounter the cross bars that are probably connecting the feet of the machine.
