📘 Overview

The Haugen MFCP/MUCP forklift carpet pole attachment covers two distinct fork-slot carpet pole styles: the MFCP (front/standard mount) — a front-mounted pole sitting above the forks — and the MUCP "Low Rider" — a below-fork design that carries the pole 18" under the fork pockets for improved sightlines and ceiling clearance. Both styles are available in 2.5" and 3" diameter poles across lengths from 6' to 12'. All poles are stress-relieved or fatigue-proof construction with rounded tips to protect carpet rolls. MFCP fork pockets: 48" deep, fit tines up to 2.5" x 6.5". MUCP fork pockets: 18" deep, fit tines up to 2.25" x 6.25". Made in USA.

⚙️ Key Features

  • Two styles: MFCP (front-mounted, pole above forks) and MUCP "Low Rider" (below-fork, pole 18" under fork pockets)
  • Two diameters: 2.5" and 3.0"
  • MFCP lengths: 6' (72"), 9' (108"), 10' (120")
  • MUCP lengths: 6' (72"), 10'6" (126"), 12' (144")
  • Stress-relieved / fatigue-proof pole material
  • Rounded tips — protect carpet rolls from puncture damage
  • Heavy-duty back plates on MUCP
  • Made in USA | Fits telehandlers and forklifts

🔑 Benefits

  • MUCP "Low Rider" carries the pole 18" below the forks for improved ceiling clearance — in warehouses and showrooms with low overhead clearance, the above-fork MFCP style can limit how high you can raise the load. The Low Rider positions the pole below the fork pockets so the machine can lift higher without the pole tip contacting overhead structure.
  • 3.0" diameter poles carry significantly more weight at shorter lengths vs 2.5" poles — the MFCP 72-30 (3") handles 2,000 lbs at the pole tip vs 1,500 lbs for the MFCP 72-25 (2.5"). For heavy commercial broadloom rolls, the 3" pole is the right choice at all lengths.
  • Rounded tips prevent pole puncture into carpet roll cores — standard poles with square-cut ends can punch into or damage the cardboard core on heavy rolls. Haugen's rounded tips distribute the insertion force over a curved surface, protecting the roll.
  • Fork-slot design works on any forklift or telehandler without a dedicated carpet pole carriage — the MFCP slips onto standard fork tines, making it immediately usable on any machine with forks without purchasing a full carriage-mounted system.

🔗 Attachment Compatibility

The MFCP and MUCP slip over existing fork tines — no quick attach system required. Verify your fork tine dimensions are within the specified maximums (MFCP: up to 2.5" x 6.5"; MUCP: up to 2.25" x 6.25"). Fits telehandlers and straight-mast forklifts. The MUCP's 18" fork pockets are shallower — confirm tine engagement is secure before lifting.

🚜 Machine Compatibility

Fits telehandlers and forklifts with standard fork tines. Standard fork pocket: 3-1/2" x 7-1/2". Compatible with major brands:

JLG Genie Manitou Skytrak
Caterpillar John Deere

Specify your machine make and model when ordering. Compatibility determined by fork tine dimensions and quick attach system.

❓ FAQs

Q: What is the difference between MFCP and MUCP?

MFCP (standard/front-mount): pole sits above the fork pockets; 48" deep fork pockets; fits tines up to 2.5" x 6.5". The pole is carried at fork height or above, which can limit ceiling clearance in low warehouses. MUCP "Low Rider": pole is carried 18" below the fork pockets; 18" deep pockets; fits tines up to 2.25" x 6.25". This below-fork position allows the machine to raise the load higher before the pole tip contacts overhead obstacles, making it ideal for showrooms and warehouses with lower ceiling heights.

Q: What diameter pole should I choose — 2.5" or 3.0"?

Choose based on the weight of your heaviest carpet rolls. At 6' length: the 2.5" pole handles 1,500 lbs tip load; the 3" handles 2,000 lbs. At 10' length: the 2.5" handles 800 lbs; the 3" handles 1,400 lbs. Heavier commercial broadloom rolls typically require the 3" pole, particularly at longer lengths where the capacity reduction is most significant.

Q: What is the workbook note for MUCP 120-30?

The workbook lists this SKU as MUCP 120-30 with a 10'6" length. Published sources (lecinfo.com) show the 10'6" 3" diameter Low Rider as MUCP 126-30. The 126 refers to 126" (10'6"). The workbook's MUCP 120-30 likely corresponds to MUCP 126-30. This discrepancy is flagged — verify the correct model number with eSkidSteer at 866-757-8337 before publishing.

Q: How do I calculate if a carpet roll is within capacity?

Use the per-foot capacity (PLF = per linear foot) and the pole tip capacity. For a roll near the tip, use the pole tip capacity. For a roll centered on the pole, use the half-pole capacity. For distributed rolls along the length, use PLF × usable length. Never exceed any of the three listed capacity values.

Q: Can these poles be used on a telehandler?

Yes — both MFCP and MUCP are designed for telehandlers, rough terrain forklifts, and standard forklifts. The MUCP Low Rider is particularly useful on telehandlers where the extended boom creates additional overhead clearance concerns. Verify your tine dimensions match the fork pocket specifications before mounting.
