Side Shifter
The side shift is the most common attachment installed in forklifts.
It allows the goods on the fork to move around the lateral side of 100mm or 150mm, facilitating the insertion and stacking of goods, greatly improving the flexibility and handling efficiency of forklifts.
It is suitable for forklift handling and stacking of various working occasions.
Details about Side Shifter

Sideshift value depends on carriage and hydraulic compatibility
Lateral fork movement can improve pallet positioning, but mounting, stroke, visibility, hydraulic supply and residual capacity remain part of the installation.
- Carriage
- Confirm class, width, mounting and fork arrangement.
- Hydraulics
- Check one auxiliary function, pressure, flow and hose routing.
- Capacity
- Use the attachment weight and effective load-centre change in the working-point check.
- Use case
- Define required shift stroke, pallet variation and rack clearance.
Sideshifter matched to the forklift
A sideshifter suits operations that need lateral correction after the truck is aligned. Frequent fork-spacing changes may justify a side-shifting fork positioner instead.
Carriage, stroke, fork section, visibility, hydraulics and residual capacity must be confirmed.
Review the side shifter product page with the truck interface and working-point data.
electric forklift range
Electric counterbalance trucks are a practical route for frequent indoor pallet positioning; IC trucks may be more appropriate when the same attachment works outdoors or across demanding surfaces.

What does a sideshifter change?
It moves the forks laterally to correct pallet alignment.
Which mounting details matter?
Confirm carriage class, width, mounting and fork arrangement.
What should be checked for hydraulic operation?
Confirm the auxiliary function, pressure, flow and hose arrangement.
How is the required stroke chosen?
State the lateral correction needed, pallet variation and rack clearance. Confirm the stroke for the proposed unit.
When should a fork positioner also be considered?
Frequent fork-spacing changes may justify a side-shifting fork positioner.
What remains to be checked on the truck?
Confirm attachment weight, load-centre change, visibility and available capacity at the working point.
