DELIVERY INSPECTION
Visually inspect hand pallet truck frame components and hydraulic unit for damage during
shipment by carrier. If damage is evident, notify delivering carrier immediately and file necessary
claims. Test the hand pallet truck pump for operation. If the hydraulic pump does not respond
to movement of the handle, an air lock may have developed during shipping. To remedy this,
pull and hold the release lever then operate the pump several times. If the pump still fails to
respond, see the trouble shooting guide on page 5.
SAFETY SHOES
Always wear safety shoes when working with hand pallet trucks.
PROTECTIVE GLASSES
When assembling or dismantling a hand pallet truck, protective
glasses must be worn to avoid personal injury.
OPERATOR’S RESPONSIBILITY
While operating a hand pallet truck always wear safety equipment
and operate in a responsible manner to ensure a safe work area.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE:
The neutral position disengages the pump from the lifting mechanism. This frees the handle,
which makes pulling loads much easier. Also the pump is not being subjected to shock pressures
while the truck is in motion.
Hydraulic system
Your hydraulic system is maintenance free. Do not add hydraulic oil unless there is,
or has been a leak. Use Premium HVI hydraulic oil or equal.
Other oils, fluids or solvents can damage your hydraulic system.
