The LANDYINDUS Hydraulic Drum Lifter and Rotator is a premium-grade galvanized steel forklift attachment engineered for precision drum handling operations that demand both lifting capacity and controlled rotational positioning. Combining a hydraulic grab mechanism with 135° hydraulic rotation capability, this attachment enables forklift operators to lift, transport, tilt, and precisely orient standard 205-litre drums from the driver’s seat — without manual intervention, without secondary handling equipment, and without disturbing adjacent drums or surrounding inventory.

135° Hydraulic Rotation — Controlled Pour, Empty & Content Transfer from the Cab

The 135° hydraulic rotation capability is the defining operational advantage of this attachment — a function no mechanical drum lifter in the series can perform. The operator controls drum tilt angle precisely from the forklift cab:

• 0° (upright): standard lift and transport position
• 45–90°: controlled pour initiation — gradual content flow, operator-controlled from cab
• 135° (maximum tilt): full emptying position — complete drum content discharge into processing equipment, collection vessel, or transfer point

This rotational control is critical in:

• Recycling & waste processing: drum contents must be emptied into processing equipment at a controlled rate — tipping the drum manually risks spillage and operator injury
• Chemical handling: precise pour control prevents spillage of hazardous or high-value liquids
• Mining operations: drum orientation affects material flow, containment, and processing equipment feed rate

Single-Drum Extraction from 4-Drum Pallet — No Pallet Breakdown Required

One of the most operationally significant capabilities of this attachment is its ability to extract a single drum from a standard four-drum pallet configuration without disturbing the remaining three drums. The precision hydraulic grab engages the target drum with controlled, localised clamping force — allowing the operator to lift and remove one drum cleanly from a tightly packed group, then replace it with equal precision after filling, emptying, or processing.

This selective extraction capability eliminates the need to break down entire pallet configurations to access individual drums — dramatically reducing handling time and drum damage risk in high-density storage environments where four-drum pallets are the standard storage unit.

Hydraulic Drum Lifter & Rotator vs Mechanical Drum Lifters — When to Choose Each

Dual Cylinder (F-DC-R2) vs Triple Cylinder (F-DC-GR2) — Choose by Operational Requirement

Both models share identical external dimensions and hydraulic operating parameters (16 MPa, 60 LPM). The triple-cylinder F-DC-GR2 provides additional clamping force distribution across the drum body — recommended for operations involving drums with significant surface variation, heavily soiled drums, or the most demanding high-cycle recycling and mining environments.

Hydraulic Integration — 3rd & 4th Valve, Quick-Connect, 16 MPa / 60 LPM

The hydraulic system integrates with any forklift equipped with a third and fourth hydraulic valve. Quick-connect couplings are factory-fitted to both hydraulic circuits, allowing connection and full operation in minutes without specialist tools or hydraulic system modification. Operating parameters:

• Working pressure: 16 MPa
• Hydraulic flow: 60 LPM
• Circuits required: 2 (grab + rotation)

874mm Fork Pocket Centres | 185×65mm Pockets | 1,600mm Frame Width

The 874mm fork pocket centres — the widest in the drum lifter series — and 1,600mm frame width are engineered for compatibility with the large forklifts typically used in heavy industrial drum handling in recycling, mining, and chemical processing environments. Confirm your forklift fork spacing can be adjusted to 874mm before ordering.

Applications

• Recycling facilities: controlled drum emptying into processing equipment, 135° tilt, no manual tipping
• Chemical processing plants: precision pour control, spillage prevention, hazardous liquid handling
• Mining operations: drum orientation control, material flow management, heavy industrial cycles
• Waste management centres: drum content discharge, selective pallet extraction
• Oil & lubricant yards: high-density 4-drum pallet storage, single-drum selective access

Key Features

• 135° hydraulic rotation — controlled pour, tilt & empty from forklift cab
• Single-drum extraction from 4-drum pallet — no pallet breakdown
• Precision hydraulic grab — localised clamping, no disturbance to adjacent drums
• Dual cylinder (F-DC-R2, 202kg) or Triple cylinder (F-DC-GR2, 226kg) — same SWL, same dimensions
• 3rd & 4th hydraulic valve | Quick-connect | 16 MPa | 60 LPM
• 874mm fork pocket centres | 185×65mm pockets | 1,600mm frame
• Galvanized finish — recycling, mining, chemical environments
