side-shift fork frame


Explanation:
See the following websites:
http://www.battle-technology.com/this_issue04i.html
"Unlike conventional unsprung telescopic handlers, the HMRTF boasts all-round suspension with three operating modes: in travel mode the machine is fully suspended for on and off-roading; in work raised mode the front suspension is raised and locked for load handling and in work lowered mode the suspension is lowered and locked for accessing standard ISO containers, where the 0.62m front centre side-shift fork frame allows you to place or recover loads from either side."

"Fork Frame with Side Shift Positioner and Side Shift Tines are ideal for jobs where the width of the load constantly changes."
