HAND PALLET TRUCK
SAFETY
USE UNDER INSTRUCTIONS
Hand pallet truck may only be
used under instructions included
in this manual.
WARNING
This hand pallet truck may only
be used to transport palletised
materials.
WARNING
Should you wish to use it for
different purposes, you may
ask for CONHERSA’S
agreement and, if necessary,
your local authorities in order
to avoid risks.
WARNING
In case of handle malfunction,
press red button, switch off
and contact our technical
service.

2.5
DAILY INSPECTIONS
Before using, following
inspections shall be followed:
1.Brake: When releasing handle,
make sure that hand pallet
truck is restrained and you can
not move it.
2.Forks: Visual inspection. Verify
correct lift and descent. No
damage in forks.
3.Hydraulic circuit: Verify possible
looses (leaks) in pipe and
cylinder.
4.Wheels: Verify tyres state.
Tighten bolts. Verify wheels
pressure.
5.Control instruments: Switch on
key. Verify battery’s light
indicators lights on.
6.Battery: Correct charge level
(20% at least).
7.Claxon: Verify well function.
8.Lifting: With forks unloaded,
verify correct lifting and
descent.
9.Connected: Pressing the dead-
man, verify correct forward and
reverse.
WARNING
In case of malfunction, switch
off, inform to whom it may
concern, and contact technical
service.
BRAKE
When releasing handle, verify
that speed controller returns to
neutral position and brake is
immediately blocked. (When
blocking, a sound must be
noticed).
Push the pallet truck to make
sure that it is well blocked and
you can not move it.

2.6
FORKS
Lift the fork by hand and place it
where needed.
Forks must be placed in
symmetry as per the axe.
The own friction of the forks avoid
of not intended displacement.

2.7
HYDRAULIC CIRCUIT
Verify oil level in the deposit.
Verify in case of possible oil
losses (leaks).
WHEELS

HAND PALLET TRUCK
OPERATOR
USER’S KNOWLEDGE
WARNING
While using, this manual’s
instructions shall be observed,
as well as local/national legal
dispositions.
SAFETY CLOTHING
Each site’s observations should
also be observed while using the
pallet truck.
For example:
WARNING
For clothing, observation of the
national rules and obligations
is as must.
Clothes should be tight enough
to avoid traps. If necessary in
the working site, user should
also wear protective glasses,
helmet, gloves, and whatever
required.

2.10
MOVEMENT IN RAMPS
AND SPECIAL AREAS
WARNING
Using the electric rough terrain
hand pallet truck for
transporting goods in ramps is
strictly forbidden.
Only permitted with the pallet
truck unloaded, if necessary.
WARNING
Do not turn in ramps.
Movement in ramps is delicate:
pay maximum attention and
care.
WARNING
Caution when moving on a
truck surface. Please make
sure that the truck is stopped.
The ramp used to place the
hand pallet truck onto the truck
must be resistant enough to
bear the hand pallet truck.
Ramp should be firmly placed
on the ground in order to avoid
unexpected movements.
Pay maximum attention during
the loading and unloading of
the hand pallet truck on the
truck.

2.11
ENTRY IN SERVICE LIFTS
Elevation of the pallet trucks in
service lifts should only occur
when the service lift has enough
power and has been designed for
this purpose.
Make sure that the pallet truck
does not touch the sides of the
service lift, and that it is well
placed in order to avoid
unexpected movements.
Operators should never get into
the service lift before the pallet
truck. Get out of the lift always
before the pallet truck.
WARNING
Make sure that the service lift
is powerful enough –see the
service lift weight capacity- to
load the pallet truck.
Do not operate nor work with
the pallet truck inside the
service lift.
MOVEMENT
Visibility
Do not drive forward when the
load does not permit complete
visibility. In that case, drive
backward, except when driving
into a service lift, where entering
backwards is forbidden.
If visibility difficulties remain,
another operator should indicate
the correct direction. In this case,
drive slowly and handle with care.
Verify that working area is
lightened enough.

2.12
TRANSPORT OF THE
PALLET TRUCK
WARNING
1.Unloaded, put forks in the
upper position.
2.Confirm that in and out
angles do not interfere with
the ground or transport
platform. (see picture)
3.When using a wooden made
bridge between platform and
dock, make sure that the
planks can bear the pallet
truck.
4.Use only the lifting hangers
to lift the pallet truck. (see
picture)
6.Switch off and release
contact key.

2.13
TESTING
After transport or a long
warehousing period, functional
testing is necessary.
Three tests:
1.Daily inspection test. (See page
2.5), to be made by users.
2.Dynamic tests, to be made by
the technical service.
2.1.Movement test.
Confirm that the pallet truck
moves towards the correct
forward-reverse switch, and
confirm that the blocking
brake works properly.
With the pallet truck loaded,
press up and down buttons to
make sure of correct work.
2.2.Piling test.
Lift completely and descent
the load at maximum speed
several times.
2.3.Descending speed test.
Confirm that descending
speed is not more than 0.6
m/s.
3. Hold load test.
With the machine off, fully loaded
with the forks up, confirm that the
forks don’t move down at all, or
they move down but not faster
than 10mm/min.
