SAFETY SHOES
Always wear safety shoes when working with hand pallet trucks.
PROTECTIVE GLASSES
When assembling or dismantling a hand pallet truck, protective
glasses must be worn to avoid personal injury.
OPERATOR’S RESPONSIBILITY
While operating a hand pallet truck always wear safety equipment
and operate in a responsible manner to ensure a safe work area.
DELIVERY INSPECTION
Visually inspect hand pallet truck frame components and hydraulic unit for damage during shipment by carrier.
If damage is evident, notify delivering carrier immediately and file necessary claims. Test the hand pallet truck pump
for operation. If the hydraulic pump does not respond to movement of the handle, an air lock may have developed
during shipping. To remedy this go to the user friendly troubleshooting guide in this manual.

SAFETY PROCEDURES
(Read and understand prior to using this product)
MAINTENANCE
LUBRICATION
All pivot points are equipped with permanently lubricated bushings and bearings. To increase bearing life, it is rec-
ommended that a few drops of light machine oil be applied at each pivot point every 6 months. The thrust plate is
equipped with three grease fittings. Apply grease under normal conditions every 6 months.
DAILY INSPECTION
OPERATING INSTRUCTION (Read and understand prior to using this product)
NOTE:
The neutral position disengages the
pump from the lifting mechanism.
This frees the handle, which makes
pulling loads much easier.
In addition, the pump is not subject
to shock pressures while the truck is
in motion.
● Never overload your hand pallet truck. Stay within rated capacity.
● Do not operate this truck if damaged or not in proper working order.
● Distribute the load evenly on the forks, do not concentrate loads at one point or load one fork more than the other.
● Only handle loads on flat level surfaces. Do not use this truck with load on inclines or declines.
● Never put your feet, hands or any other body part under the frame assembly.
● Do not allow your hand pallet truck to drop from one level to another. Even a drop of 1” (25mm) more than
doubles the effective load momentarily and results in a “Shock” which can bend or break components.
● Always ensure load is stable before moving to eliminate opportunity for load shift.
● When not in use, lower forks completely to avoid injury.

PUSH BAR LINKAGE ADJUSTMENT
If the forks do not rise evenly at the tips, or the roller levers begin to drag on the floor the
following adjustment is necessary:
LCR55 (ONLY)
- Turn the hand pallet truck over so that the under side of the forks are accessible.
- Remove one split pin (PN-20269B) with 3/16” punch.
- Remove pin (PN-20227) from bracket.
- Adjust eyebolts (PN-20226). Turn counter-clockwise to raise fork tips and clockwise to lower fork tips
- Replace pin (PN-20227) through eyebolt and replace spilt pin (PN-20269B).
- When adjusted properly the forks should be 3” low height from ground level in the lowered position.
LCS/LCM/LCU MODELS
- Turn the hand pallet truck over so that the under side of the forks are accessible.
- Remove one split pin (PL-20269) with 3/16” punch.
- Remove pin (PL-20227) from bracket.
- Adjust eyebolts (PL-20226). Turn counter-clockwise to raise fork tips and clockwise to lower fork tips
- Replace pin (PL-20227) through eyebolt and replace spilt pin (PL-20269).
- When adjusted properly the forks should be 3" (LCS)/2" (LCM)/1 3/4" (LCU) low height from ground level in
the lowered position.
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
Your hydraulic system is maintenance free. Do not add hydraulic oil unless there is, or has been a leak. Use Premium
HVI hydraulic oil or equal. Other oils, fluids or solvents can damage your hydraulic system. If you suspect additional
oil is required, follow these steps:
1. Lower the truck and load with 600 lbs (approximate).
2. Pump the truck to its maximum lift height.
3. Measure the vertical height of the exposed piston (215030) and refer to the chart below.
ADDING OIL (IF REQUIRED)
4. Place and secure the truck on its right side (release valve facing the floor).
5. Pull up on the release lever (PL-40274BDM) and extend the lift piston fully.
6. Remove screw (221586) and add the amount of oil determined by step 3.
7. Reinstall screw (221586) but do not tighten, leave a 1/32” gap.
8. Pull up on the release lever (PL-40274BDM) and collapse the lift piston until oil starts to ooze
from the screw.
9. Tighten the screw (221586) fully and return the truck upright.

impurities into the hydraulic system.
