FORKLIFT WRECKER

Transform your forklift into a powerful, on-demand wrecker with the Minute Man Forklift Wrecker®! This innovative, all-mechanical auto-load wheel lift attachment makes moving cars quick and easy.

Why Choose the Forklift Wrecker®?

  • Time-Saving Efficiency: Quickly relocate vehicles around your facility without calling in outside help.
  • Damage-Free Handling: Contacts only the wheels, reducing the risk of scratches or dents.
  • Hydraulic-Free Design: No complicated hydraulics needed – just pure mechanical simplicity powered by springs.

Key Features

  • Universal Fit: Compatible with many (but not all) OSHA Class I, IV, V, and VI forklifts. Fits forks up to 48″ long and up to 3″ x 7″ in thickness/width.
  • Auto-Load Mechanism: Springs automatically engage the “C-Hooks” to secure wheels – no manual adjustments required.
  • Impressive Capacity: Rated for 3,500 lbs. (subject to your forklift’s rating at the distance from the mast).
  • Durable Construction: Powder-coated finish for long-lasting protection. Made in America using high-quality American-made steel by Rapidtek
  • No Hydraulics Required: Simple, reliable, and easy to maintain.

How It Works – Simple Steps for Instant Results

  1. Slide the attachment onto your forklift’s forks.
  2. Tighten the bolts to secure it in place.
  3. Drive forward to push the attachment under the vehicle’s wheels – the C-Hooks pivot automatically to grip securely.
  4. Lift the vehicle and fasten with the provided wheel straps for added safety.
  5. Move the vehicle to your desired location!
  6. When done, remove the straps and lower the forks to the ground.
  7. Slowly reverse the forklift – the springs will retract the C-Hooks, releasing the wheels effortlessly.
