Telehandler Industrial Work Platform - Haugen Attachments

📘 Overview

The Haugen MWP Industrial Work Platform is a forklift man basket — a fork-mounted personnel platform for telehandlers and rough terrain forklifts, rated at 1,000 lbs maximum capacity in four platform sizes (4x4 to 4x9'8") with three configurable options: platform size, fork pocket style (Industrial or Large), and 60" High Back (for mast-style forklift protection). Built to meet and exceed ANSI/ITSDF B56.6-2016 and CSA B335 — the same standards required by OSHA for rough terrain work platforms. The owner of Haugen Attachments participates in the OSHA standards committee, meaning compliance requirements are built in by design, not retrofitted. Empty weights: MWP 4x4 (395 lbs), MWP 4x6 (487 lbs), MWP 4x8 (578 lbs), MWP 4x116 (630 lbs). Steel mesh floor, collapsible railings (no tools), spring-loaded self-latching doors, safety restraint tie-downs rated 3,600 lbs each. Made in USA with a 1-year warranty.

⚙️ Key Features

• Four sizes — 4x4 (395 lbs), 4x6 (487 lbs), 4x8 (578 lbs), 4x116/4x9'8" (630 lbs) — all rated 1,000 lbs maximum.
• Two fork pocket options — Industrial Pockets (2.75" x 7.75" standard) or Large Pockets for wider fork tines. Specify at order.
• Optional 60" High Back — protects occupants from accidental contact with the mast on vertical mast forklifts.
• ANSI/ITSDF B56.6-2016 + CSA B335 compliant — designed by an owner who sits on the OSHA standards committee.
• 2-to-1 structural safety factor — for all load-bearing structural elements.
• Safety restraint tie-downs rated 3,600 lbs each — one per occupant, welded to the base structure.
• Spring-loaded self-latching inward-swinging doors
• Collapsible railings — no tools required
• Steel mesh floor with capped edges and 6" toe kicks
• Made in USA, Casselton ND | 1-year warranty | Professional Engineer certification available on request

🔑 Benefits

• OSHA compliance built in by the owner of the OSHA committee — not retrofitted — most manufacturers react to standards changes; Haugen's owner participates in drafting them. Every design decision in the MWP reflects current B56.6-2016 requirements, not the previous version.
• Three option axes give 16 configurations from one product family — size, pocket style, and high back combine to match any operator's machine, tine, and use-case combination without requiring multiple part numbers to find the right fit.
• 3,600 lb safety tie-down anchors significantly exceed OSHA requirements — over-engineering the anchor points means they are never the limiting component when rating platform safety for inspection or certification.
• PE certification available for job site documentation — a copy of Haugen's complete Professional Engineering certification report is available on request, supporting formal compliance documentation requirements on commercial and government projects.

📋 Variant Options

🔗 Attachment Compatibility

The MWP Industrial Work Platform uses a fork slot mounting system. Insert both fork tines fully into the Industrial or Large fork pockets, then install the steel locking pin behind the heel of each tine using the chained hitch pin. Always use both fork pockets and center the tines on the carriage. Tilt and swing cylinders on telehandler carriages must be disabled before use. The 1/3 rule applies: the combined weight of the platform plus all personnel and materials must not exceed 1/3 of the host machine's rated capacity at the load center and lift height. A PE-certified down-rated load chart for your specific machine can be obtained from Haugen on request.

🚜 Machine Compatibility

Designed for telehandlers, rough terrain forklifts, and standard forklifts with fork carriage. Standard fork pocket size 3-1/2" x 7-1/2". Compatible with:

Compatibility is determined by fork pocket size and host machine capacity — verify your machine's rated capacity before use. Never exceed the capacity of the attachment or the host machine.
