1 INTRODUCTION AND KEY FEATURES
Congratulations!
Thank you for purchasing the Magliner HD Powered Stair Climbing Hand Truck.
You have chosen a unit especially designed for carrying loads of up to 725 lbs. using
the very latest stair climber technology for negotiating different types of steps and
stairs safely and efficiently. The HD Powered Stair Climbing Hand Truck is safe and
easy to use.
Key features:
Two UP / DOWN switches - one on the left and one on the right of the handle
unit - for perfect user comfort. Ideal for both left- and right-handed operators.
Automatic braking system that ensures the main wheels stop reliably at the
edge of each step from the moment the unit is switched on.
Optimum protection against impact to the support wheels thanks to a lubricated
mechanical clutch.
Additional electronic protection prevents damage due to overloading.
Climbing speeds and two operating modes (single-step mode and continuous
mode) to perfectly match your operating style.
Excellent performance on spiral staircases.
1.1. General safety guidelines
Make sure nobody is located underneath the load.
Always secure the load with the safety belt included.
Always wear non-slip shoes. Some steps may be very smooth.
Always wear shoes with steel toecaps.
The HD Powered Stair Climbing Hand Truck may only be operated by trained
personnel.
Never reach into the unit's transport mechanism with your hands.
Plan each journey on the stairs according to the current situation before you start.
Always remove the battery pack before stowing the HD Powered Stair Climbing
Hand Truck. Firstly so the unit cannot be switched on inadvertently during transport
and secondly because the unit is 9 lbs lighter without the battery pack.

1.2 Built-in safety features (depending on model)
Fold model:
Before each use, make sure that the quick release lever (Figure 2, page 7) on
the handles is tightened properly.
It must be possible to tilt the load from the standing position without assistance.
The position of the handle section in relation to the frame must not be altered.
Dolly model:
Figure A shows the 4th wheel attachment when retracted.
Figure A shows the 4th wheel attachment when extended. The sliding arm must
be at right-angles to the brace.
Each time before starting up the stair climber, make sure that the 4th wheel
attachment is properly folded away (retracted, Figure D).
Important:
Do not use the 4th wheel attachment in the extended position while operating the
stair climber on stairs.
