Operating Instructions
WARNING
To avoid serious bodily injury or death, and/or property damage, do not exceed the rated load
capacity.
When not in use, do not allow heavy loads to remain on the fork for an extended period of time.
Always lower the fork completely when not in use.
Note: The numbers in parentheses refer to part numbers in the breakdown.
This pallet jack is designed for use with open style pallets or skids only. Closed style pallets must be
placed on top of the fork prior to use.
1. Insert the fork into the pallet.
2. To raise the fork, push the control lever all the way down. Pump the handle until the desired fork
height is reached.
3. To move the handle without affecting the fork setting, set the control lever in the center neutral
position. The load can now be pushed or pulled using the handle.
4. To lower the fork, pull the lever all the way up. Allow the load to descend slowly in a controlled
manner. The lever is spring-loaded and will return to the neutral position when released.
Adjusting the Control Handle: 3 Positions
On the Handle (1) of this pallet jack, you can find the Control Lever (8), which can be placed in three
positions (Figure 4):
LOWER - to lower load, pull up on the control handle.
NEUTRAL - place the control handle in this position while pulling the pallet jack or load.
LIFT - to raise load, push down on the control handle and pump the handle to raise the load.
