 The Trigger Handle in the top position (or pulling upward) is for lowering the forks. Squeezing
the trigger will allow forks to lower. Stop squeezing the trigger when the forks are at the
desired height.
Operating the Foot Pedal
The foot pedal can be used instead of the handle to raise the forks to the desired height.
General Operation Notes
 When lowering loads, operate the handle slowly and gently to avoid sudden drops or
declination, which can cause unsafe situations and can cause damage to the pump on
the stacker.
 Before each use, inspect the stacker for any damage or loose components. Do not use if
any damage or non-working parts are found. Make repairs before operating again.
 Heavy loads should be unloaded when not in-use. Do not leave any heavy goods on the
forks for long periods of time to avoid damage to the pump and unsafe situations.
 Always use the brakes on the back wheels to keep the stacker from moving during
transport and for safe operation.
 When checking or adding hydraulic oil, only use new and clean oil. ISO #32 is
recommended.
After Each Use
When the stacker is not in use, store it in a secure place out of the reach of children. Inspect it for
good working condition prior to storage and before re-use.
Maintenance
Maintain your stacker. It is recommended that the general condition of any tool be examined
before it is used. Keep your tool in good repair by adopting a program of conscientious repair and
maintenance in accordance with the recommended procedures found in this manual. Keep all
cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
All moving joints should be lubricated with general oil every three months. Check to see that the
wheels and axles are not intangled by threads or any other materials, and that the wheels run
freely and smooth.
Air may be absorbed into the hydraulic system when the stacker is not used for a long time. The
air can be removed in the following way:
 Lower the trigger to the position for raising the forks.
 Pump (move in an up and down motion) the handle 4-6 times and then release the trigger. If
needed, the above operation can be repeated several times until air is removed.
