Q: Can the DG02 be used with plastic drums?
A: The DG02 is specifically designed for standard 205-litre steel drums. Its clamping mechanism may not securely grip plastic drums, and use with such drums is not recommended.

A: No modifications are necessary. The DG02 is designed to slide onto standard forklift forks and is secured using a chain or clamp mechanism.
Q: How does the automatic clamping mechanism work?
A: The clamp automatically engages the drum rim when the forklift is raised, securing the drum for transport. Lowering the forklift releases the clamp, allowing for easy disengagement.
Q: What safety precautions should be taken when using the DG02?
A: Operators should ensure that the DG02 is properly secured to the forklift before use. Always verify that the drum is correctly positioned and that the clamp has fully engaged the drum rim before lifting. Adhere to all standard forklift operating procedures and never exceed the specified load capacity.
