This fork-mounted gripper picks up and transfers 55-gallon drums — and weighs them with a \u003cstrong\u003ebuilt-in LED digital scale\u003c\/strong\u003e in the same motion. The unique design \u003cstrong\u003elifts the drum from its top lip\u003c\/strong\u003e rather than around the chimes like many competitors: place the grabber above the drum, lower it slowly so it expands around the drum, then raise it so the grippers secure under the lip. A hydraulic pump closes the grippers firmly to the drum rim.
