Instruction manual
Compac wheel dolly, model WD1500.
Important: Read and understand the complete instruction
before use!
Operating and service manual for wheel dolly model WD 1500
Max. Capacity 1500 kg.
Instruction and responsibility:
This instruction and safety manual must be enclosed with the wheel dolly at all times.
It is very important that the owner and the operator completely understand the operating, safety and
maintenance instructions before use. The manufacturer is not liable for wrong- or irresponsible use or
maintenance due to the operators not knowing and following these instructions. If the operator is not
fluent in English, then these instructions and warnings shall be read and explained to the operator in
the operator's native language, making sure that he understands its contents.
How to use the wheel dolly:
WD1500 is a mobile wheel dolly for demounting and mounting large wheels with an outside diameter
of 1150 mm up to 2150 mm (84”). The wheel / load is lifted when the 2 x 4 rollers press horizontally
on each side of the wheel. Lifting will require more force in the beginning as the rollers are pressing
against each other. Lifting occurs with pumping the handle (P). Lowering the wheel/load is activated
by moving the foot pedal (E) into the opposite position. The pump handle (P) can then be used for
lowering the wheel/load again.
Operating instruction:
The unit is operated by moving the foot pedal (E) into lifting or lowering position and afterwards
pumping the pump handle (P).
Labelling:
Warning and CE approval labels are fitted onto the unit.
Make sure that lifting only occurs on a The wheel/load must be lifted in a vertical
flat and strong surface / floor. angle as the wheel/load might otherwise
slide on the rollers away from the unit
causing the unit to move towards the
operator.
Mounting:
After opening the packaging check the unit for visible damage, leakage, etc. Please recycle or use
the packing material again.

Safety instructions - LIFTING
1. Make sure that lifting only occurs on a flat and strong surface/floor. If not, lifting with this unit is
prohibited due to risk of danger / damages!
2. The wheel/load should be lifted from the floor.
3. Place the rollers (F) on either side of the wheel that should be lifted. Move the unit as close to
the wheel/load as possible.
4. Loosen the vertical support arm (H) and horizontal support arm (A). By using grip (K) it is
possible to steer the arm with the small support wheel (W) to the opposite side of the
wheel/load. Once the small support wheel (W) is on the opposite side it can be steered behind
the wheel/load. This will prevent the wheel/load from dropping to the opposite side during
manoeuvring.
5. Once you have placed the guide arm (A) correctly, lock its position with the lock (M).
6. !! Lock (L) should be open while lifting or lowering so that the wheel (W) supports the
wheel/load on the opposite side. Kindly note that you should NOT lock position (L). Once you
begin lifting the wheel/load, lock (L) must be open, as this will allow the guide arm to follow the
upwards and downwards movement of the wheel as it is raised and lowered.
7. The lifting can now start. *
* Before you end the lifting procedure, active safety pin (S) so that the manual safety stop is
activated, should a hydraulic leak occur. After a short lifting or lowering action the safety pin (S) will
be activated. The safety pin is spring loaded and will lock the movement of the lifting arms. To unlock
the safety stop pump a little in the opposite direction so that the safety pin (S) can be pulled up again.

Safety instruction - LOWERING :
A: Purpose to place wheel on the ground
B: Purpose to mount the tire back on to the vehicle
For purpose A: Follow points 1 to 3 For purpose B: Follow points 1 to 5
1. Before releasing a load the lock (L) (see figure 2 for all the following safety instructions)
should be released, allowing telescopic arm (H) to follow the tire down.
Also release safety pin (S).
2. Inspect that the small wheel (W) has a firm grip on the opposite side of the tire/load
3. Depending on the weight of the load –the load may be lowered once you activate
footpedal (E) from position 2b to 1a. This is due to the rules of gravity- that will overcome the
resistence inside the hydraulic system. The lowering process will happen gently –due to the
build in parachute valve. However, if you wish to stop the lowering movement –STOP the
lowering process by moving food pedal (E) back into position 2b.
3a.
If the load is not enough to lower by use of gravity –use the pump handle (P) in position 1a to
lower the load. The tire/load is now resting on the ground, supported by roller (W) on the
opposite side, and supported by the rollers (F) below and telescopic arm on the front side.
..Continued for purpose B
4. Follow the lowering instructions as described under 3 –3a, however- stop the lowering process
a fraction below the nut holes on the vehicle.
5. The reason why the load is lowered to a position just below the mounting holes is that the
lifting process can happen in a more precise way- then the one of lowering.
6. Now activate foot pedal (E) into position 2b,and lift the load gently –until the mounting holes
are aligned.
Safety instruction –MANOEUVRING WITH WHEEL/LOAD
1. Ensure that the small support wheel (W) is supporting the wheel/load correctly.
2. Ensure that the locks (M), (L) and (S) are in locked position.
WARNING Safety instructions:
Make sure that lifting only occurs on a flat and strong surface/floor.
The wheel/load must be lifted in a vertical angle as the wheel/load might otherwise slide on the rollers
away from the unit causing the unit to move towards the operator.
Do not overload the unit! Overloading with loads over 1500 kg could result in damage to the unit or in
worst case cause other damage and even accidents!
Lowering a load of more than 1500 kg onto the unit may lead to serious damage to the unit. Example:
If the operator lowers the vehicle itself before lowering and moving the wheel dolly away from the
vehicle.
Before lifting / transporting a load the operator MUST take precautions that the load is not allowed to
drop, and that the weight distribution is safe. The operator must before use take precautions that all
pins are safely locked with split pins or lock rings. (ATTENTION! The LOAD must be blocked with the
guide arm (K) locked and (W) in correct position to support the wheels on the opposite side.)
Always lower the load to the lowest possible position before transportation.
Important! The safety valve is calibrated and sealed by the manufacturer and it is ABSOLUTELY
PROHIBITED to open the seal or adjust its calibration. Offence against the above safety instructions
could in worst case result in loss of the load which could cause personal injury and/or damage to the
unit or properties. In case the unit has any irregularities which could affect the safety, the unit must
not be operated until it has been repaired.
The unit should not be used if there are any oil leakages or if the unit seems different to use than
when it was new. In such cases the unit should be inspected/repaired by a skilled person. More
information on spare parts, etc is available on www.compac.eu under ”Services”.
The manufacture is not liable for wrong use, changes to the construction, use of other spare parts
than original or adjustments/repairs by unauthorised persons.

Safety Maintenance:
Inspection of the unit must only be done without load, for safety reasons. Only authorized/skilled
personnel may repair/adjust the unit. Use only original parts. For adjustment follow the instructions of
the manufacturer. For further information please contact www.compac.eu
Maintenance:
At normal use all mechanical/moving parts only requires a monthly lubrication to be maintained.
The pins must be greased every three months. Important! Use only oil or grease free from acid.
An annual inspection must be performed by a skilled person. Every eventually wearing out or
defective part must be replaced with original spare parts. The owner and- or user must take
precautions that repair is made by a skilled person. Before every use the operator must take
precautions that there are no visible faults such as leaks, damage of the WD and loose or missing
parts. In case the operator suspects that the unit has been overloaded or wrongly loaded it must
before further use be inspected by a skilled person or an authorized.
Oil: DO NOT use brake fluid, motor oil, etc!
Volume: 0.6 litres.
Type: Use only hydraulic oil with a gradation (viscosity) of AWS22.
Compac recommends Castrol.
In case the hydraulic unit has a lack of oil or has been taken apart in order to replace the seals then
fill up with the correct oil quantity. Activate the pump handle and add oil slowly through the filling hole
at the plug. The lifting arms must be in minimum position (as close together as possible) when
refilling oil. Warning! Too much oil quantity might cause problems to the hydraulic system.
Decommissioning:
If the unit should ever be scrapped, draw off the oil into an approved container and dispose it at an
approved authority.
