IntralogisticsOptimized
Rack
North America has standardized the Tear Drop/ Riveted Beam End Plate design
for good reason - no other combination provides better connectivity, capacity,
system rigidity AND long term � exibility for product mix elevation changes.
Having a system that easily adapts as your needs change and that maintains
higher re-sale value than any other is a win-win. Frames are one piece MIG
welded of 55 KSI hi-strength steel.
Unirak Step Beams feature 55 KSI hi-strength steel that is continuously
hi-frequency seam welded on a state-of-the-art tube mill (installed in 2015).
This provides consistent robotic end plate weldable shapes and precision length
cuts. SEVEN step beam pro� les provide capacity matched sizing. Optimized
vertical cube use and cost ef� ciency is assured. Unirak Beams feature 3 Rivet
connectors (4 rivet available and standard on 6.5” SB650) and replaceable
locking clips.

Ask your professional
Eric,
Just wanted to let you know that Shelving, Inc. has
completed their installation of our new Unirak
pallet racks (Phase I). They did a wonderful job and
your racks look great. (I attached a few pictures)
We have received many compliments on them already and
have passed on Unirak’s information and Shelving, Inc.
contact information to two friends. Looking forward to future
installations in our Phase II and Phase III plans over the next
few years.
A quick question – is your colors of blue and orange paint
available commercially in spray cans? We are thinking of
painting our rivet shelving blue and orange to have them
look similar to our racking.
Todd and I thank you again for you time and the tour last
year … it made the difference and the sale. If we can ever
help your business, even as a secondary source when you
might be in a jam, with steel strapping, shipping products,
protection products, etc., please never hesitate to call!
Best regards,
John A. Haapala

A lesson worth learningMike Marchev
If you are an honest, hard-working business professional who has more than a modicum of interest in helping others get through this whacked-out world we live in, then I say it is your obligation to let us know you exist and are here to help us.
The secret is, (and keep this to yourself as it seems very few people know this) you have to do something.
• Piggybackyourstoryoffawell-publicizedcurrentevent.• Calllocalmediapersonnelandaskthem,“HowcanIhelpyou?”• Alwayskeeptheaudienceinmind.• BuildyourmediamailinglistTODAY.•• Donotmakethisthingharderthanithastobe.• Publicityisnotadvertising.• Findmorefunwaystogrowyourbusiness.
Every business professional knows the value of visibility, consistency and of being positioned as the go-to resource. I would be preaching to the choir if I began waxing eloquent on any one of these most import-ant business truths.
Butthenagain,ifthesetruthsaresoself-evident,whydosomanybusinessprofessionalsfailtogetthemessage?Whydoesittakeanuncanny number of whacks on the head for so many smart people to finally get it. The simple fact is that, during a great portion of our adult lives,weallassumetheroleof“AIS.”Thisisasofter,easier-to-acceptterm for the highly educated physician’s name for the ever popular and
quickly spreading AdultIdiotsSyndrome.Iwantyoutogetthisandgetitgood.PUBLICITYisfreeandit

If you finally find the time to do your business somegoodattheexpenseofpushingapileofpapersfrompoint“A”toposition“B,”thenIwantyoutotelltherecipientsomething(anything)they might want to hear.
Likehowyourcompanyhasrecentlyannouncedthetime-saving,vacation-saving,marriage-savingSpecialReporttitledHow to pack for a two week vacation without breaking your back or the bank. (There is not a married man over 30 who will not pay a week’s salary to read these nuggets of interest you jammed into this little jewel.)
Whenyouintroducenewandexcitinginformationthatyourtarget-ed audience can both identify with and find interest in, you are onto biggerandbetterthingsinthebusinessworld.Youarenowbecomingthe go to resource.

The MotiveAider instantly raises the voltage level of 24, 36, 48, and 72 volt lead acid packs so that they will. This eliminates the need to disassemble packs, or charge batteries independently.

If you are storing in an area where towing or hauling is required, let’sgothroughthoseproceduresfirst.IamgoingtouseaTennant385 sweeper as the example because that was the machine used in the e-mailrequest.Onecanpushortowthemachineifitisnotrunning.The main propelling pumps have a towing valve to prevent damage to thehydraulicsystemwhenthesweeperisbeingtowed.Youmustturnthevalve90degreesclockwisebeforeanytowingisperformed.Ofcourse you can push the machine from either the front or rear, howev-er, only tow it from the rear. The hydraulic system probably would be damaged if these procedures were not followed.
If hauling a sweeper on a rollback, I prefer to load it in reverse. Alwaysremembertoputthemainbrushandsidebrushintheupposition before loading. The machine can be tied down once on the rollback at the front and rear of the machine. The front tie-down is above the front tires. The rear tie-downs are located on both sides of thetaillightsundertherearbumper.Makesuretheparkingbrakeisset.
Now that you have reached your destination, and have it unloaded, choose a wise spot for storing your sweeper; an out of the way area.

Forklift seatbelts Brian Colburn of Forklift Training Systems
WhenIwasakidinthe1970’s,IneverworriedmuchaboutseatbeltsorwhatmighthappenifIdidn’twearone.WhenIbecamea teenager in the 1980’s, it was still not a big deal, since I was used to motorcycles and tractors that didn’t even have them. In the 1990’s, itbecamelawincertainpartsoftheU.S.thatyouhadtowearthemorriskafine;onceagain,nobigdealsinceIcouldaffordthefine.OnlywhenmywifepointedouttomewhatabadexampleIwassettingforournewbabyboydidIchangemyhabits.Shetoldme“ifhe gets hurt or killed because he sees you not wearing your belt and doesthesame,Iwillneverforgiveyou.”Istartedwearingmybeltthat day and only a few years later it saved my life in a serious head on accident, in which I was not at fault but would have been killed without the belt.
I do not know all the regulations across the globe or how people react to seatbelts abroad, but I can tell you how it is here intheU.S.OSHAdoesnotmentiontheword“seatbelt”in29CFR1910.178,theU.S.forkliftstandard,buttheydomakemen-tion of having to train the operators regarding the contents of the operator’s manual, which now almost always would have instructions regarding seatbelt use. They also have several letters of interpretation, whichsaysomebasicthingsthatIwillparaphrasebelow:
1) Anyunitmanufacturedwithabeltbetterhaveoneasgoodor better in place.
2) If they were not made with a belt, then you should be con-tacting the manufacturer and asking if a retrofit is available to make yourliftsafer.Iftheyofferoneyoumusttakeadvantageoftheoffer.Onasidenote,olderelectricunitsneedtohavethebatterypositivelycontained before belting the operator in or the sliding battery might kill the operator in a tip over situation.
3) OSHAwillenforcetheuseofseatbeltsthroughtheir“gen-eraldutyclause.”
Soyoucangetafine,bigdealyoumightsay.IntheU.S.about25%ofthe100+fatalitiesinvolveatipoversituation.Weseeandhear about so many statistics that we forget these are 25 real dead peoplethatdidnothavetodie!Theyweresomeone’sDad,Mom,Brother,Sisterorfriend.Ihaveheardmanystoriesaboutpeopleget-ting killed or horribly injured as the result of being on forklifts that didn’thavebeltsorjustnotwearingthebeltthatwasthere.Ontheother hand, I have never heard of an incident where a person wearing a belt was killed or that anyone was more seriously injured as the result of wearing a belt. This should be a wake up call for companies, trainers and operators around the world to start wearing and enforc-ing the use of belts, because the life you save might be your own, or your friend’s or your child’s.

Save money on freight and avoid damageFreightisoneofthegreatuncertainties

Tips for damage-free shipping and freight savings
•Knowthedimensionsofyourshipmentand cube out to max on the height of the trailer.Mostcarriersbaseyourshipmentonthefirst12ft,maximizeyourshipmentand keep it under and the savings will be great.Productswithanextensivelengthmay be subject to additional fees.
• Ifrackingisnotalreadybanded,usesteelbanding to keep pallet rack and wire decks from being jostled around during transit. Carrierswillbemovingatspeedsupwardsof60MPH,andlooserackingcompo-nents will bump into each other and the inside of the trailer, often causing damage.
•Usehighqualitypallets.Palletrackingisheavy, and can crush poor quality pallets, as can the pressure of tightly-bound steel banding.Shippingonaflatbed?Getridof the pallets altogether, as they can crush
under tension from the straps when secur-ing the load.
•Chooseyourcarriercarefully.Agivencarrier may have the lowest rate but, when it comes time for the carrier to deliver they maynotbeabletofindatruck.Besuretochoose a carrier with a proven track record that can reliably and safely deliver your product.

New Manual Extendable KOOI-FORKS®
Thin pro� le allows easy entry on 4-way GMA type pallets!
Always there when you need them!Manual Extension Forks provide a simple solution for handling differing load sizes or dual load transport. They replace the original forklift tines so they are always there when you need them.
A simple � ngertip locking mechanism, which doubles as a grease point, allows the forks to be extended manually and locked into an extended position for safe and secure transport of goods. They’re ideal for applications which have infrequent need for handling differing loads sizes.
For more demanding applications, we recommend our original hydraulic telescopic KOOI-REACHFORKS® which allow length adjustment at the touch of a lever.
