The Fork-Mounted Guard Arm from LineWise helps prevent conductors from falling into the right-of-way crossings.
Designed to conveniently mount to the pallet forks on a telehandler, the Guard Arm provides a simple, yet effective safety measure to securely catch falling lines.
Featuring a 1,200-pound capacity, the LineWise Guard Arm has a 12-foot-wide span from tip to tip with the ears installed, allowing it to accommodate a variety of distribution lines. When not in use, the ears can be stowed on the unit to maintain a more compact profile. The Guard Arm also includes a cross roller with bearings to facilitate movement if a conductor lands on it. The Guard Arm can be installed or detached in approximately 30 seconds with no adapter needed. A rear locking pin, which meets OSHA requirements, securely holds the unit in place on the forks. The Guard Arm weighs 607 pounds and can be used on all telehandlers with a capacity of 8,000 pounds or greater.
