2. TO ATTACH HANDLE TO PUMP UNIT

2.1 Remove 3 bolts (D611) from the handle bracket (D151).

2.2 Set handle (D610A, D 610B or D610AS) o n the brac ket (D151), notice to al low the chain (D6 12) and the adjusting bolts (D 614) assembly t o pass through the hole in t he center of the bracket (D151) and shaft (D153).

2.3 Insert the 3 bolts (D611) through the handle into the bracket (D151), then tighten them securely.

2.4 Raise the lever plat (D132) and insert the adjusting bolt (D614) into the front slot, keeping the adjusting nut (D615) on the under side of the lever plat (D132).

3. TO ADJUST RELEASE DEVICE

On the draw-bar of this pa llet tr uck, y ou can find t he control h and le ( D608 or D608 S) w hich can b e regulated in three positions : Raise - handle down Drive position - handle in center position

Lower - handle up, the lever moves back the drive position when released.

If however they have been changed, you can adjust according to following step:

3.1 If the forks elevate while pumping in the DRIVE position, turn the adjusting nut (D615) on the adjusting bolt (D614) or adjusting screw (D133) clockwise until pumping action does not raise the forks and the DRIVE position functions properly.

3.2 If the forks descend while p umping in the DRIVE position, turn the nut (D615) or adjusting screw (D133) counter-clockwise until the forks do not lower .

3.3 If the forks do not desc ent when the c ontrol han dle (D608 or D608S) is in the LOWER position, turn the nut (D615) or adjusting screw(D133) clockwise until raising the control handle(D608 or D608S) lowers the forks. Then check the DRIVE position according to item 3.1 and 3.2 to be sure

the nut (D615) or adjusting screw (D133) is in the proper position.

3.4 If the forks do not elevate while pumping in t he RAISE position, turn the nut (D615) or adjust ing screw(D133) counter-clockwise until the forks elevate while pumping in the RAISE position. Then check the LOWER and DRIVE position according to item 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3.

4. MAINTENANCE

Your pallet tr uck is largely maintenance-free.

4.1 OIL

Please check the oil lev el every six months. Th e oil capa city is about 0.3lt. Use the hydraulic t ype

oil according to temperature scale below.

Temperature Oil

-20℃~+40℃

L-HV46 Hydraulic oil

4.2 HOW TO EXPEL AIR FROM THE PUMP UNIT

The air may come into the hydraulic oil because of transportation or pump in up set position. It can cause that the forks do not elev ate while pumping in the RAISE position. The air can been banishe d in the following way : let the control ha ndle (D608 or D608S) on the LOWER positio n, then move th e handle (D610A, D610B or D610AS) up and down for several times.

4.3 DAILY CHECK AND MAINTENANCE

Daily check of the pallet truck can limit w ear as much as possible. Spec ial attent ion should be p aid to the wheels, the axles, as thread, rags, etc. It may block the wheels. The forks should be unloaded and lowered in the lowest position when the job is over.

4.4 LUBRICATION

Use motor oil or grease to lubricate all moveable parts.
