I have to agree with etharp (minus the scolding). An order picker was not designed for this task (nor is pushpack rack designed to be used with an order picker). Outside of safety and compliance issues (which are significant), an order picker is not designed to be pushing loads and more significantly does not have the ability to tilt the forks to match the incline of the pushpack rack.

Fact of the week
Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
