Crane jib and lifting beam are means of lifting loads for fork-lift trucks. They are for use where forks cannot be pushed under the load or the materials in question have to be lifted over a barrier where a truck cannot be driven. Excellent for assembly work or for the removal or positioning of machine parts where a complete parallel boom crane is not availableIt is important here to take note of the bearing-load diagram of the fork-lift truck to avoid tipping over.
