this manual
Worn O ring in ram cylinder
Relief valve not seated properly
Relief valve not adjusted properly
Reload truck within load capacity
and adjust valve by pressure
adjustment screw
Oil leakage from each valve Tighten plug of each valve
Fork does not lower Cam broken Replace cam chain
UP-DOWN cam nut out
of adjustment
Refer to “Adjusting UP-DOWN
Cam” in this manual
Broken fork rods and linkage Replace broken parts
Lever does not set at
NEUTRAL position
UP-DOWN cam nut out
of adjustment
Refer to “Adjusting UP-DOWN
Cam” in this manual
DO NOT adjust the up/down
lever control using the lock
nut at the end of the handle
chain. If nylon locking
threads are removed from
the screw threads, rolling
vibration will cause the
nut to unscrew and fall off,
leaving the up/down lever
unusable.
ADJUSTING UP-DOWN CAM
Use proper set screw and
lock nut adjustment located
on the side of the pump.
This feature was designed
to ease the pallet truck
adjustment. Tools required
are:
• Flat head screwdriver.
• 14mm wrench.

PALLET TRUCK ASSEMBLY
Individual trucks are assembled and ready to use. Pallets trucks purchased in crate quantities (6 units to a crate) require
some assembly.
Tools needed for assembly: Hammer, Flat Head Screwdriver, 14mm Wrench.
TO ATTACH HANDLE ASSEMBLY TO THE FRAME:
Safety Information
1.
IMPORTANT
Verify that spring safety pin is
in place. The pin should be well
rested in the holes situated on
each side of the pump housing.
If the safety pin is not rested
properly in one of the holes, put
pressure on the spring using
a “C” clamp pushing down on
the pump stem. Once pressure
is relieved on the pin, reinsert
properly and remove clamp
slowly.
2.
Insert handle pin into
corresponding holes and
using a hammer, drive in one
spring pin on one side only.
3.
Insert handle pin without the
handle and verify that the
centre hole is facing you.
4.
If handle pin’s centre hole is
facing away from you, insert
pin from other side
IMPORTANT
The up/down lever’s chain
passes through this centre
hole. If left this way, the
chain will have an “S” form
and be under too much
tension, maing the up/
down lever difficult to use
accurately.
5.
IMPORTANT
Before this step, make sure
to feed the chain on the
outside of the piston stem
roller (see arrow). If left in its
proper position, it will not be
possible to insert the handle
pin and chain, breakage may
occur. Align handle holes
with pump housing holes and
push through handle pin
(see arrow).
6.
Make sure that the handle
pin is completely through the
handle and resting on the
other side.

Safety Information
7.
Pull down on the handle
to release the tension on
the safety pin. CAREFULLY
remove the safety pin.
8.
Feed the chain and nut
first back inside the handle
THROUGH the handle pin’s
centre hole.
IMPORTANT
Release the up/down lever to
it’s lowest position to make
the process easier.
9.
Once the chain is in the
proper position, check to see
that it moves freely and that
it is not obstructed.
10.
Using both hands, push on
the valve cam to raise the
hook inside the housing and
feed the end of the chain in
the cam (see under).
11.
Pump the lever a few times
to raise the forks. Put the up/
down lever to it’s NEUTRAL
position.
Using a 14mm wrench and a
flat head screwdriver, adjust
the valve cam so that the
forks don’t lower or rise (if
handle is pumped) at this
position.
12.
Test all the features of the
pallet truck before this
step. The handle should be
pumped with full strokes to
prime and eliminate air in the
system. The up/down lever
should be checked at the
handle’s lowest position for
this puts the most tension on
the chain. Once the pallet
truck is adjusted properly
and is performing well, drive
in the second spring pin
using a hammer.
