Forklift Wrecker®
$2,999.00 – $3,295.00
The Minute Man Forklift Wrecker® is an easy, fast and affordable way to move cars with just a forklift. It is a mechanical, auto-load wheel lift attachment.
- Fits many (but not all) Class I, IV, V, and VI Forklifts
- Fits forks up to 48″ length
- All-mechanical, auto-loads using springs
- 3,500lbs load capacity, subject to forklift rating at distance from mast
Benefits of the Forklift Wrecker
- Save time and labor, quickly moving at your shop, dealership or lot
- Reduces risk of damage with wheels-only contact
- Eliminates cost of contract wreckers
- No hydraulics required
How to choose the right size?
- First, measure your fork thickness
- Forks less than 2¼” thick need the Standard Model
- Forks between 2¼” and 3″ thick need the Large Fork Pocket Model
- Regardless of thickness, forks cannot exceed 48″ in length
How it Works
- Slide onto the forks of your forklift
- Tighten bolts to secure attachment to forks.
- Time to go! Push attachment under wheels of vehicle. The “C-Hooks” will automatically pivot securely around the wheels of the parked vehicle.
- Lift the vehicle and secure with provided wheel straps.
- Move it!
- When finished, remove the straps and then lower the forks to ground.
- Reverse your forklift slowly and the springs will pull the C-Hooks back, releasing the wheels.
