Yanmar Quick-Attach 1200 lb 42″ Pallet Fork

Description

Yanmar YPFQA12 Quick-Attach Pallet Fork, 1,200 lb Capacity

The YPFQA12 is a quick-attach pallet fork frame rated for 1,200 pounds, designed for compact tractor loaders. It moves palletized feed, bagged materials, fencing supplies and equipment around the property, turning the loader into a light-duty forklift.

Fork Construction

The 42-inch forks have a 1 by 3-inch cross section and are ITA-rated and heat-treated. Overall width is 46 inches, and the universal quick-attach plate fits most compact tractor loaders. The capacity suits sub-compact and compact tractors, whose loaders typically lift less than the fork’s rating at full height. Overall length is 49 inches and height is 34 inches.

• Weight Capacity: 1200 lbs.
• Hitch: Universal Quick Attach
• Fork length: 42 in
• Fork cross section: 1 x 3 in

Loading Tips

Spacing the forks as wide as the pallet allows keeps loads stable, and carrying the load low with a slight tilt back prevents sliding. The tractor’s loader capacity, not the fork rating, is usually the limiting factor. Keeping forks level when entering a pallet avoids splitting the boards.

Choosing a Pallet Fork

Pick the YPFQA12 for compact loaders and lighter loads. The YPFQA uses heavier forks rated at 3,000 pounds for larger tractors.
