DELIVERY INSPECTION

Visually inspect the 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 manual

pump for proper 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.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

(Read and understand prior to using this product)

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.

To raise the load, push down on

the fingertip control. Pump the

handle to raise the load from the

floor.

To lower the load, pull up on the

fingertip control.

For free handle movement, place

the fingertip control in the neutral

position.

NOTE:

The neutral position disengages

the pump from the lifting

mechanism. This frees the handle,

which makes pulling loads easier.

In addition, the pump is not

subject to shock pressures while

the truck is in motion.

SAFETY (read and understand prior to using this product)

• Read and obey all labels on this product. If you have any questions about these, ask your

supervisor.

• Do not operate this hand pallet truck unless you are authorized and trained to do so.

• Never overload your hand pallet truck. Stay within its 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.

• When the load impairs visibility, the hand pallet lift truck should be pulled and not pushed.

• Always look where you are operating. Keep a clear view.

• Only handle loads on flat level surfaces. Do not use a loaded truck on inclines or declines.

• Never carry passengers.

• Never put your feet, hands, or any other body part under the frame assembly.

• Always yield right of way to pedestrians.

• Do not allow your hand pallet truck to drop from one level to another. Even a drop of 1 in.

(25 mm) more than doubles the effective load momentarily and results in a loading that can bend

or break components.

• Move loads only with the hand pallet truck in its lowest position.

• Always make sure that the load is stable before moving to eliminate the opportunity for load

shift.

• Use extreme care when rounding corners. Too fast a speed could cause a hand pallet lift truck to

tip. If loaded, the load could shift and fall.

• When not in use, fully lower the forks.

• Never lift a heavy load with just the points of the forks. This could damage the electronic

weighing elements permanently.

• Never weigh without a pallet. This could affect the accuracy of the weighing result.

• The unit may be loaded with weights up to 5000 lb. (2268 kg).

• Do not operate the weighing system on ramps, inclines or declines, without the addition of our

optional parking brake.

• Do not operate the weighing system while others are on or near the unit. No riding!

• Do not use the weighing system in potentially explosive areas.

• Do not weld or make changes to the weighing system without consulting the supplier.

• Check the accuracy of the scale on a regular basis to prevent faulty readings.

• Never lower loads if you are unsure you can place the load on a stable surface. Personal injury

may result from placement on an unstable environment.

• Always remain with the scale during dosing applications. Incorrect lifting of the pallet can cause

overflowing.

• Lift-Rite is not responsible for errors that occur due to incorrect weights or inaccurate scales.

SYSTEM SETUP

Mounting the Pump Handle

1. Make sure the lever is pushed down to the

“pump” position.

2. Thread the chain through the hole in the

triangle and through the hole in the axle.

3. Place the handle bar onto the triangle and

insert the bolts.

4. Tighten the bolts firmly.

5. Push the silver part “A” on the outside of

the pump downwards.

6. At the same time; insert the chain into the

open side of the slot “B” on the inside of

the pump.

The Battery

The power supply to the system takes place through an exchangeable battery pack. A completely

charged battery should operate for a total weighing time of about 35 hours (on a system without a

printer).

CAUTION! - When the voltage level of the battery is running low, the display

will show “LO-BA”. When the battery is completely empty, the weighing system

shuts off.

It is necessary to charge the battery for at least 6 hours before the first use. Recharge battery when

the LO-BA indicator comes on.

If you use the system in shift work or if the system has a built-in printer, it is recommended to

purchase a supplementary battery pack.

The battery should be charged on the adapter supplied with the charger. When the battery is

charging, the LED on the charger is lit. When the LED turns off, the battery is fully charged.

It is not possible to overload the battery because the charger shuts off automatically.

OPERATION MANUAL

USING THE WEIGHING HAND PALLET TRUCK

Accurate Weighing

The weight must be centered over the forks of the pallet truck and lift freely: without touching the

housing of the indicator or other pallets.

Fast temperature changes should be avoided because condensation may form in the electronics.

During acclimatization the indicator must be turned off.

Taking the System into Operation

To activate the scale, turn it on using the on/off (�) button on the terminal.

After 3 to 5 minutes the electronics and load cells have reached the operational temperature. Before

this, inaccuracies of up to 0.3% may occur.

It is recommended not to lift loads before the zero-point correction has been executed. (See

“TROUBLESHOOTING” on page 20).

Maintenance

The maintenance guidelines for normal pallet trucks apply to the chassis of the mobile scale. The

integrated scale will still function even though the chassis has been damaged by overloading.

Main guidelines:

• Because the steering wheels are mounted in the front, pulling of the pallet truck is preferred

above pushing it.

• When the lifting mechanism is not used, the handle should be kept in the neutral (middle)

position. This prolongs the life-span of the seals.

• The scale meets up to the protection class NEMA 4/IP65. This means that dust or moisture (rain

or water beam from all sides), will not influence the operation of the electronics. However, high-

pressure cleansing in combination with warm water or chemical cleansers will lead to the entry of

moisture and have a negative influence on the operation of the system.

• To avoid damage to load cells and electronics, only the Authorized Service Center may undertake

any welding.

• The bearings of the wheels (non-polyurethane) and the pivoting points of the leveling bar of the

loading wheels must be cleansed and greased regularly.
