Tirehand Installation Introduction
VEHICLE COMPATABILITY
The tirehand will permanently adapt to either a forklift truck or a front-end loader which has
sufficient capacity and stability, per the tirehand specifications. When mounting to a forklift
truck, it
is recommended that the truck be equipped with a sideshift. If adapted to a front-end loader, quick
couplers are available which enable the disconnection of the tirehand so that the original bucket
can be quickly coupled to the machine for normal operations.
Typical tirehand hydraulic installations include:
Bulkhead plate hydraulic installation - all of the tirehand hydraulics hoses connect together
in
a
bulkhead plate, which then connects hydraulically to the loader or forklift. With a bulkhead
plate installation, the valvebank is part of the forklift or loader rather than the tirehand. In
many cases, bulkhead installations are used on forklifts.
Valvebank hydraulic installation - when the valvebank is part of the tirehand, rather than the
loader or forklift. The forklift or loader must be equipped with a pressure line and a return line
which connects the forklift or loader hydraulic system to the valvebank in the tirehand. In
many cases, valvebank hydraulic installations are used on loaders.
Typical tirehand controls include:
Hydraulic cab controls, where additional functions in forklift or loader control valves are
hydraulically connected to the tirehand.
Electric cab controls, which includes a control box with toggles used to control the tirehand.
Radio remote controls.
For all installations, the tirehand requires 12 GPM (45.4 lpm) of hydraulic fluid at 2500 – 3000 PSI
(172.4 - 206.8 bar). A flow divider may be required if the forklift or loader pump provides excess
flow. Contact IMT for specific installation instructions on any type of installation.
Prior to connecting any electrical connections between the tirehand and the loader or forklift,
check the tirehand voltage. IMT tirehands may be 12V or 24V.

Typical Tirehand Hydraulic Installation
For all installations, the tirehand requires 12 GPM (45.4 lpm) of hydraulic fluid at 2500 – 3000
PSI (172.4 - 206.8 bar). Some of the components shown on the typical hydraulic installation
drawing, including the flow dividers, reservoir, filter, pump, and drain, are not provided by
IMT
but
are part of the loader or forklift. Contact IMT for specific installation instructions on any type
of installation.

16 TH10K135 Manual #99905540
Loader Installation
NOTE: Tirehand installations vary based on the carrier vehicle. Contact IMT for specific
installation assistance.
1 Mount the Tirehand to loader arms using the original loader pins.
2 Splice the flow control divider into the existing pressure line. Continue the original line to its
original destination (bucket, etc.), and route the controlled line (with 12 gpm (45.4 lpm) at
2500 - 3000 psi (172.4 - 206.8 bar)) to the tirehand
valvebank.
3 Route the hoses as shown in figure below.
4 Locate the control handle inside the cab where convenient to operate.
5 Connect the 3-wire power cable to 12-volt power. The green wire connects to 12V positive,
the black wire to the coil on the flow divider, and the white wire to ground.
6 Route the control cable to the tirehand and connect.
7 Check all hoses and cables for clearances. Make sure that steering or moving the arms will
not pinch or overstress the hoses or cables.
8 Fill the reservoir. Start the loader’s engine and operate all controls to purge air from the
system. With the loader running, check for leaks and repair if necessary.
9 Recheck all hoses and cables for clearance.
10 Check the reservoir oil level and fill if necessary.
11 Test operate the tirehand.
NOTE
Stop blocks should be welded to the loader
arms to limit articulation, if necessary
Locationsand sizes of stops to be
determined at time of installation.

Chapter 3 Installation 17
Lift Truck Installation
1 Mount the Tirehand to lift truck using the original carriage pin.
2 Splice the flow control divider into the existing pressure line. Continue the original line to its
original destination (forklift function, etc.), and route the controlled line (with 12 gpm (45.4 lpm)
at 2500-3000 psi (172.4 - 206.8 bar)) to the tirehand valvebank.
3 Route the hoses as shown in figure below.
4 Locate the control handle inside the cab where convenient to operate.
5 Connect the 3-wire power cable to 12-volt power. The green wire connects to 12V positive,
the black wire to the coil on the flow divider, and the white wire to ground.
6 Route the control cable to the Tirehand and connect.
7 Check all hoses and cables for clearances. Make sure that steering or other movements of
the lift truck will not pinch or overstress the hoses or cables.
8 Fill the reservoir. Start the lift truck’s engine and operate all controls to purge air from the
system.
9 With the lift truck running, check for leaks and repair if necessary.
10 Re-check all hoses and cables for clearance.
11 Check the reservoir oil level and fill if necessary.
12 Test operate the Tirehand.

WARNING
Avoid serious injury! Keep clear of all pinch
points while operating this unit.
Bulkhead Installation
If the forklift on which the tirehand is installed includes control valves, all of the hydraulic lines
from
the forklift control valves must culminate at the front of the carriage. The forklift will connect
to the tirehand using a bulkhead plate. The forklift manufacturer must furnish oil for all hydraulic
functions. Install the tirehand with a bulkhead plate as follows:
1 Install the tirehand on the forklift, using the bulkhead plate for hydraulic connections. Use the
required hydraulic fluid flow at the correct pressure, per the tirehand specifications. See the
bulkhead plate drawing (60118044) in the parts manual for connection information.
2 Check lubrication points for adequate lubrication.
3 Operate the forklift to check for vertical obstructions.
TESTING
1 Raise the tirehand to provide adequate clearance for operating all tirehand functions.
Operate all tirehand functions and check for leaks.
2 Test the unit at rated capacity. Note any points of instability. Add counterweights if needed.
3 If the carrier vehicle is articulating, make certain that steering of the vehicle is not hindered by
the routing of the hydraulic hoses. Check for wear points and re-route if needed.
NOTE
If the tirehand operation is erratic, purge air
from the hydraulic system.
