-
Do not load pallet truck beyond its rated capacity.
-
Secure load before transporting.

Introduction
Thank you for purchasing an ALL-T-2 manual pallet truck. This pallet truck was
designed to traverse rough terrain where no ordinary pallet truck can go and
is adapted for use in settings such as garden nurseries, construction sites,
and marinas. The truck features a high quality hydraulic pump with welded
construction and chrome plated piston and pump plunger ensure durability and
corrosion resistance. All the joints are fitted with seals to ensure sealing
and keep the body from oil leaking. Safety by-pass valve helps protect against
overload. 3-position control handle allows operator to lower, raise and engage
pump into neutral position with a simple tough of the lever. Strong & light
tubular steel framing and adjustable fork width.
Large pneumatic tires make handling pallets of most sizes possible without the
need for a forklift.

Operating Pallet Truck
Pallet Truck Operation
To raise the forks, place handle in the UP position (bottom part of the handle
slot), see Fig. 1.
To lower forks, pull lever handle to DOWN position (upper part of the slot).
To freely move the handle, set the lever in Neutral (center notch of slot).
To Lift a Load
- Lower forks to lowest position, Figure 1.
- Insert forks under load, or into pallet.
- Place lever in UP position (bottom part of slot), Figure 1.
- Move handle up, and down until forks reach desired height.
To Move a Load
- Place lever in NEUTRAL position (center notch of slot), Figure 1.
- Pull or push pallet truck to desired location.
To Lower a Load
- Pull lever to the DOWN position (upper part of slot), Figure 1.
- Pull forks away from load.
Up-Down Cam Adjustment
-
Set the lever in the NEUTRAL position, Figure 1.
-
Turn the cam nut while pumping the handle, Figure 2.
-
When lifting stops, give the nut one more turn.
-
The cam nut is properly adjusted when pumping the handle in the NEUTRAL position causes no movement of the hydraulic ram.
Cleaning the Release Valve (Bleed the Pump) Over time, the hydraulic pump
assembly may become clogged with debris, air bubbles, and not function
properly.
To clean the release valve and bleed the pump:
- Pump handle quickly, raising pallet truck to full extent. While continuing pumping action, pull lever to down position.
- When forks reach total down position, valve is flushed. Repeat if necessary.
Lubrication
Check the oil level annually by removing the oil plug found on the top of the
pump housing. When changing or adding oil, fill the tank through the oil plug
screw hole to 80% capacity with hydraulic jack oil, about 2” deep in pump
housing, see Figure 3.
Do not use any other type of oil. There is one grease fitting (#55B in the
breakdown) located on the table.
Lubricate this point on a semi-annual basis.
Wheel bearings are sealed and require no lubrication. Crank Shaft features oil
light bushings that also require no lubrication. Lightly oil all moving parts.
Cleaning Relief Valve
Over time, relief valve may become clogged with debris and will not work
properly. To clean relief valve, flush out hydraulic system as follows:
Pump handle quickly, raising pallet truck to full extent and then quickly
release pumping action.
Lubricating and Oiling When changing or adding oil, fill tank to 80% capacity
(Figure 3) with hydraulic oil, such as:
Shell Tellus Oil——–No. 22 or 27, Turbine Oil————No. 22, Texaco Regal ——– No.
32. Change grease of rear and front wheels annually.
Troubleshooting
Possible problems could arise in the operation of your hydraulic pallet truck. Their probable cause(s) and corrective action(s) follow:
| Condition | Probable Cause | Corrective Action |
|---|---|---|
| Hydraulic unit does not lift. | Oil low in tank. |
Steel ball not seated in hydraulic unit.
Worn O-ring in ram cylinder| Make sure there is no oil leakage from valve, and
add oil.
See “Cleaning Relief Valve” in this manual.
Consult authorized repair station.
Once lifted, truck lowers by itself.| Steel ball not seated in hydraulic unit
Worn O-ring in ram cylinder Relief valve not seated properly Relief valve not
adjusted properly Oil leakage from each valve| See “Cleaning Relief Valve” in
this manual.
See “Cleaning Relief Valve” in this manual.
See “Cleaning Relief Valve” in this manual.
Reload truck within load capacity, and adjust valve by pressure adjustment
screw.
Tighten plug of each valve.
Fork does not lower.| Cam broken Up-down cam nut out of adjustment Broken fork
rods and linkage| Replace cam chain.
Refer to Adjust Up-down Cam” in this manual.
Replace broken parts.
Lever does not set at NEUTRAL position.| Up-down cam nut out of adjustment|
Refer to “Adjusting Up-down Cam” in this manual

Attaching the Tow Bar (ALL-TTB) to ALL-T-series Lift Trucks
Step 1 : Remove the drive wheels to expose the wheel shaft.
Step 2: Locate the shaft retaining pin; then remove it.
Locate the wheel shaft retaining pin, which is identified with an arrow in photo D at left. The retaining pin fixes the wheel shaft in place, so that it cannot rotate or slide.
E. Before the wheel shaft can be removed, the retaining pin must be removed. Tap the retaining pin out of its channel as shown in photo E.
Step 3 : Remove the wheel shaft, position the tow bar around the steering shaft and then reinstall the wheel shaft.
F. Tap and pull the wheel shaft out of its channel through the drive shaft (see photo A below).
G. Position the connection end (see Fig. 1, p. 1) of the tow bar around the steering shaft and align all of the shaft openings; then insert the wheel shaft.
Step 4: Remove the cross-link that connects the two sides of the tow bar with a flat blade screwdriver and a 1/4in.crescent wrench
Step 5: Fix the wheel shaft in place.
J. Rotate the wheel shaft until the hole for the retaining pin aligns with the
opening in the steering shaft; then tap the retaining pin into place.
K. Reinstall the cross-link and tighten the fasteners.
Step 6: Reconnect the wheels to the wheel shaft, by reversing the procedure described in Step 1 on p. 1.
Step 7: For storage purposes, a nylon strap is included in the tow bar accessory kit. Photos L and M below indicate one possible method of using the strap to secure the tow bar in an upright (storage) orientation.
