Do not load pallet truck beyond its rated capacity.
Secure load before transporting.
To prevent accidental tipping, make sure load is centered on the forks.

3.0 Introduction
Your JET Pallet Truck is designed with most efficient features for warehouse or dock.
The 2.95 inch lowered height, tapered fork tips and wide polyurethane entry/exit rollers combine for easy
entry and exit of pallets. The 200 turning radius allows maneuverability in confined spaces. Ball bearings
on steer and load wheels are lifetime lubricated, double-sealed, and promote smooth, quiet travel.
The cast iron pump features top-of-the-stroke and overload by-pass valve systems, and single point valve
service for easy replacement.
The chassis is heavy gauge steel, reinforced with cross-welded plates to prevent forks from bending;
solid steel push rods provide additional strength. Paint finish is powder-coated for superior protection of
the underlying steel.
In summary, your JET Pallet Truck is designed to offer consistent, long-term operation with minimal
maintenance and service attention. If there are questions or comments, please contact your local supplier
or JET. JET can also be reached at our web site: www.jettools.com.
Retain this manual for future reference. If the pallet truck transfers ownership, the manual should
accompany it.
Read and understand the entire contents of this manual before attempting
assembly or operation. Failure to comply may cause serious injury.
