Description

📘 Overview

The Haugen MHP Handyman Work Platform is a telehandler work platform for fork-mounted personnel lifting and rough terrain forklifts, available in 4'x4' (MHP 4x4, 395 lbs) and 4'x6' (MHP 4x6, 487 lbs) platform sizes, each rated for a maximum capacity of 1,000 lbs of personnel and material combined. Built to meet and exceed ANSI/ITSDF B56.6-2016 and CSA B335 safety standards — the same standards required by OSHA for rough terrain work platforms. Collapsible guardrails assemble without tools in minutes, spring-loaded self-latching doors provide secure entry, and safety restraint tie-down points are welded to the base and rated for 3,600 lbs each. A 60" high-back protects occupants on mast-style forklifts. Standard fork pocket size is 2.75" x 7.75" with 30" center-to-center spacing. Made in the USA with a 1-year warranty.

⚙️ Key Features

  • ANSI/ITSDF B56.6-2016 and CSA B335 compliant — meets or exceeds OSHA requirements for rough terrain forklift work platforms; designed by an owner who serves on the OSHA committee.
  • 1,000 lbs maximum capacity — covers personnel and all tools/materials in the platform; combined weight must not exceed 1/3 of the host machine's rated lift capacity at position.
  • 4'x4' and 4'x6' platform sizes — MHP 4x4 (395 lbs empty) for compact machines; MHP 4x6 (487 lbs empty) for wider work areas requiring 2-person capacity.
  • Collapsible guardrails — no tools required — railings fold down for transport and assemble quickly on-site without any tools.
  • Spring-loaded self-closing, self-latching doors — doors close and latch automatically and require deliberate action to open, preventing accidental opening at height.
  • Safety restraint tie-down points rated 3,600 lbs each — OSHA-approved harness connection points welded to the base structure; one per occupant.
  • 60" high-back for mast forklift protection — protects occupants from accidental contact with the forklift mast during elevation.
  • Steel mesh floor — capped edges — no sharp edges; capped ends prevent tool or foot entrapment.
  • Made in USA | 1-year warranty

🔑 Benefits

  • OSHA compliance by design — designed by an OSHA committee member — Haugen's owner participates in the OSHA standards committee, meaning compliance requirements are built in from the start rather than retrofitted to meet regulations.
  • No-tool assembly reduces setup time on the job site — railings fold and unfold in minutes without tools, which matters when the platform is being set up and taken down multiple times per day.
  • Self-latching doors prevent accidental fall risk at height — spring-loaded doors that latch automatically eliminate one of the most common compliance deficiencies found in platform inspections.
  • Safety pins cabled to the platform cannot be misplaced — all safety pins securing the railings are attached to the frame by cables, so pins are always present for use and can't be left behind on the job site.
  • Professional Engineer certification available for job site documentation — a copy of Haugen's full PE engineering report is available on request, supporting compliance documentation requirements on commercial job sites.

🔗 Attachment Compatibility

The Haugen MHP Handyman Platform uses a fork slot mounting system — insert the fork tines fully into the platform's fork pockets (2.75" x 7.75" standard, 30" center spacing), then install the steel locking pin behind the heel of each fork tine using the hitch pin to secure it. Both fork pockets must be used; the platform must be centered on the carriage. Tilt cylinders or swing cylinders on telehandler carriages must be disabled before use. Do not use the shipping/transport pockets (end pockets) for lifting personnel — fork pockets only.

🚜 Machine Compatibility

Designed for telehandlers, rough terrain forklifts, and standard forklifts equipped with fork carriage. Standard fork pocket size 3-1/2" x 7-1/2" (custom sizes available on request). Compatible with:

JLG Genie Manitou Skytrak
Caterpillar John Deere

Compatibility is determined by fork size and capacity, not brand — verify your machine's rated capacity before use. Never exceed the capacity of either the jib or the host machine.

❓ FAQs

Q: What is the maximum safe platform capacity, and how does the 1/3 rule work?

The platform itself is rated for 1,000 lbs of combined personnel and material. However, OSHA and ANSI standards require that the combined weight of the platform and its load (personnel + material) must not exceed 1/3 of the host machine's rated lift capacity at the relevant load position. For example: if your telehandler is rated at 6,000 lbs at the load center, the maximum allowed combined platform + load weight is 6,000 ÷ 3 = 2,000 lbs. Since the MHP 4x6 weighs 487 lbs empty, maximum load in that scenario would be 2,000 - 487 = 1,513 lbs, capped at the platform's 1,000 lb maximum.
Q: Can the platform be driven with personnel in it?

No — this is a critical safety requirement. The operator must lower the platform fully to grade before personnel enter or exit. Once elevated, the machine must be set in neutral with the parking brake engaged. The operator must remain at the controls at all times while personnel are elevated, but the machine must not be driven with anyone in the platform.
Q: Do OSHA lanyards need to be used in this platform?

Yes — all occupants must wear OSHA-approved safety lanyards attached to the Safety Restraint Tie-Down points on the back of the platform. There is one tie-down per person; do not attach more than one person to each tie-down. This is an OSHA compliance requirement and a standard operating procedure for all aerial work platform use.
Q: What is the minimum host machine capacity required for the MHP 4x6?

For vertical mast forklifts: the host machine must have a rated capacity of at least 2 x (1,000 + 487) = 2,974 lbs at the load center with the MHP 4x6 attached. For telescopic boom (telehandler) machines: at least 3 x (1,000 + 487) = 4,461 lbs is required. Always reference the specific load chart for your machine and contact Haugen (877-580-6218) if you need a certified down-rated load chart for a specific telehandler model.
Q: Why is the MHP 4x4 vs MHP 4x6 choice important?

Both models are rated for a maximum of 2 people and 1,000 lbs combined capacity. The 4x4 at 395 lbs is better suited to smaller machines with tighter capacity ratings. The 4x6 at 487 lbs provides more working space for two-person jobs requiring tools and materials. The 4x4 is also the better choice when minimum host machine load bearing width is a constraint — Haugen requires a minimum 52" load bearing width for the 4x6.
Q: Is a certified load chart available for my specific telehandler?

Haugen provides down-rated load charts certified by a Professional Engineer for specific machine and platform combinations. If your telehandler manufacturer does not supply a work platform load chart but allows platform use, contact Haugen Attachments at 877-580-6218 to request a certified chart for your specific machine. A copy of Haugen's complete PE engineering certification is also available on request.
