Adjusting the Control Handle – 3 Positions
On the Handle Tube (1) of this pallet jack, you can find the Control Lever (5), which can be placed in
three positions (See Fig. 3):
LOWER -Pull the Control Lever (5) up and the forks / load will lower to the desired height. The
Control Lever (5) will move back to the NEUTRAL position when released.
NEUTRAL -When the Control Lever (5) is in the middle position, the forks will not move when the
Handle Tube (1) is pumped. The Control Lever (5) must be in the neutral position when
the jack is driven.
LIFT -Push the Control Lever (5) down and pump the Handle Tube (1) to raise the forks / load
to the desired height.

Note: These three positions have been set at the factory to work appropriately as soon as the
handle tube is attached. Check to see if the jack works well in the 3 control positions. If the forks do
not raise or lower as expected, proceed to the following steps (Fig. 4):
1. Pull the Control Lever (5) upward to the "LOWER" position. If the fork frame does not lower,
turn the Nut (13) CLOCKWISE until the fork frame lowers.
2. Push the Control Lever (5) down to the "LIFT" position. If the fork frame does not elevate,
turn the Nut (13) COUNTER-CLOCKWISE until the fork frame elevates.
3. Keep the control handle in "NEUTRAL" position. If the fork frame lowers, turn the Nut (13)
COUNTER-CLOCKWISE until the fork frame does not lower.
4. Check again to see if the jack works well in the 3 control positions. If not, repeat the steps
above until the pallet jack works well.
