Key Features:
-
Forks: These are the prongs that slide under the pallet to lift and support it.
-
Hydraulic Pump: A manual pump that activates a hydraulic system to lift the forks.
-
Handle: The handle is used to steer and operate the pallet truck. It often includes controls for lifting, lowering, and sometimes steering.
-
Wheels: The pallet truck has wheels that make it easier to maneuver the load across flat surfaces.
-
Weight Capacity: Hand pallet trucks typically have weight capacities ranging from 2,000 to 5,000 kgs, though heavier-duty models can handle even more.
How It Works:
-
Lifting: To lift a pallet, the operator pumps the handle to activate the hydraulic system, which raises the forks.
-
Transporting: Once the pallet is lifted, the operator pushes or pulls the truck to move the load.
-
Lowering: To lower the pallet, the operator releases a valve on the handle, which allows the hydraulic system to gently lower the forks to the ground.
Hand pallet trucks are a cost-effective and efficient way to move goods in areas without the need for motorized forklifts. They are ideal for short distances and are used for loading/unloading trucks, organizing warehouse inventory, and moving goods in narrow aisles.
