OPERATION
WARNING! Operator must read and understand
instructions here and on truck prior to use.
On the handle of the pallet truck, you will find the control lever, which can be set in three positions. (See Figure 1)
Figure: 1
- DOWN = to lower the forks
- NEUTRAL = to move the load
- UP = to raise the forks
- If the forks elevate while pumping in the NEUTRAL position, turn the setting screw clockwise until pumping the handle does not raise the forks and the NEUTRAL position functions
- If the forks descend while pumping in the NEUTRAL position, turn the setting screw counterclockwise until the forks do not
- If the forks do not descend when the control lever is in the DOWN position, turn the setting screw clockwise until raising the control lever lowers the Then check the NEUTRAL position as per steps 1 and 2.
- If the forks do not lift while pumping in the UP position, turn the setting screw counterclockwise until the forks elevate while pumping in the UP Then check the NEUTRAL and DOWN position as per steps 1, 2 and 3.
NOTE: When viewing the truck from the handle side, the setting screw is located on the right side of the pump above the right wheel. The truck will lower faster or slower depending on how far in or out the screw is adjusted.
MAINTENANCE
OIL
Check the oil level every six months. The oil capacity is about 0.3L.
Restore the fluid level in the reservoir to 5mm below the top; this must be
done with the forks in the DOWN position.
Use hydraulic oil ISO VG 32 or equivalent. Oil viscosity should be 30c5t at
104°F (40°C).
HOW TO EXPEL AIR FROM THE PUMP UNIT
Air may enter the unit over time or when the seals are replaced. To expel the
air, lift the control lever to the DOWN position and pump the handle up and
down several times.
DAILY CHECK AND MAINTENANCE
Daily checks of the pallet truck can limit wear and tear on the unit. Pay
special attention to the wheels, axles, handle, forks and lift and lower
control.
LUBRICATION
Use motor oil or grease to lubricate all movable parts.
SAFETY
For safe operation, please read all warning signs and instructions here and on the pallet truck prior to use.
- Do not operate the pallet truck unless you are familiar with it and have been trained and authorized to do so.
- Do not use the truck on sloping ground.
- Never place any part of your body in the lifting mechanism or under the forks or load. Do not carry passengers.
- Operators should wear gloves and safety shoes.
- Do not handle unstable or loosely stacked loads.
- Do not overload the truck.
- Always center loads on the forks, not at the end of the forks. (See Figure 2)
- The capacity of the truck assumes an evenly distributed load with the center of the load being at the halfway point of the length of the (See Figure 2)
- Make sure that length of the forks matches the length of the pallet (See Figure 2)
- Lower the forks to lowest height when the truck is not being used.
