In general, yes, that would help. I have several customers trying to balance, lift, hoist, etc. large generators and having fork pockets on some of these would be a blessing. Now the size of the fork pocket would have to be versatile enough to accomodate a few large sizes of forks. I would suggest Servco Mktg 1 (800) 756-6577 to see if they could help you on determining a size to accomodate the width and thickness of the forks.

Good luck!
