Here's another angle of the mounted frame. No notches have been cut on the top rail. The forks will slide with some significant coaxing. Once painted, I'll try waxing the rail or something.
Here's a shot of the heaviest thing I could find to pick up...230 bricks. I had to move the 3PH link arms to the far hole on the lift arms, but even with a little complaining, the 3PH lifted the pallet as high off the ground as I wanted to go.
Last picture. Another angle of the brick pallet, defying gravity. The hydraulic toplink is no giant among cylinders, but is able to tilt the pallet, no problemo.
Here's one more "last" picture. This was taken today, with 3PH forks used for their first real work...moving parts of a neighbor's tree. 3PH fork and loader fork loads counterballast each other...whoa. Log sections are about 5' long and almost 2' in diameter, next year's firewood.
Looks like a real nice set up. All the different attachments I see and the uses for them seems endless. I want 'em all /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif. G
