Model 290F Grip+Go This power-grip, fork-mounted drum handler from Morse Manufacturing Co. allows the user to lift, move and fully invert a drum from a forklift. The attachment requires a minimum of 25 inches between the forks and has fork pocket openings that are 2.5 inches high by 6.5 inches wide. Options include grip pads for use with plastic or fiber drums and a wireless tilt-control unit with an operating range of 300 feet. Its optional environmentally friendly lithium-iron-phosphate battery, which is lighter than the conventional lead-acid version, offers a cycle life up to eight times longer (up to 5 years) and can be stored up to a year without a recharge.

What's new? The 290F model, which first became available several months ago.

Benefits The ability to fully invert a drum, and various safety features and options. The control pendant prevents the unintentional release of a drum, and the optional environmentally friendly battery doesn't leak acid or harmful gases.
