Step 1
The hand truck will have plastic stops in the outer section of the axle at
the bottom of the frame (shown in the picture below) and they must be
removed before you begin assembly.

5
Step 2
Slide the 20mm Axle (4) through the hole of the Frame (1) (where you
have just removed the plastic stop) and the inner section of the axle so
that there is the same amount of space on each side of the frame. You
may need to apply pressure to the outer axle onto the springs in order to
thread the 20mm axle through.

Next place on the axle the Axle Washers (6), Spacers (7), Wheels (3)
and Caps (10) in the order shown on the diagram below.

Step 4
To secure the wheels on the axle, turn the truck onto its side so you can
give the caps a good tap with a soft rubber hammer or the palm of your
hand. Be sure to place some cloth or cardboard etc. under the other
wheel of the truck as to not damage the opposite cap. Perform this step
on both sides.

Step 5
Place the Toe Plate (2) onto the exposed ends of the frame and fasten
with the M6 x 45mm Bolts (8) and M6 Nuts (9) using a 10mm spanner
and 5mm allen key. Then screw the Hand Screws or Bolts (5) into the
threads above the springs shown below.

Check Before Using
1. Make sure there is no damage to the frame or toe plate before
each use. Bends, fractures and cracks could cause a fault in the
truck.
2. Check the wheels for damage and make sure they both spin freely
on the axle.
3. Check all bolts and nuts to make sure they are intact and tightly
secure. Do not use if a bolt or nut has come loose or is missing.
4. Make sure the pivot springs are intact and in the correct position.
Any bends or deformities could cause the truck to fail.
5. Check the caps on the end of the wheels are still flush with the
large washer. Do not use if the cap is loose or missing. Some
trucks have the facility to insert a split pin in the case of a missing
cap. Insert your own split pin into the two holes at the end of the
axle before use.
6. Make sure the springs and roller bearings are always lubricated.
Any unusual noises from the wheels or springs can be solved by
adding grease to the components.
7. Check the hand screws are of equal depth into the pivot springs. If
one is further than the other, it could cause the truck to be lop-
sided when lifting.

11
8. Check that both spring slots make contact with the axle when
lifting. If you can see the spring from the rear when lifting, the
tension is too high.
Use of Truck
1. Be sensible about the load you place on the truck. Never exceed
the recommended load capacity.
2. Make sure you can always see over the load on the truck. Do not
place a load higher than the frame of the hand truck.
3. When stacking a load onto the truck make sure larger and heavier
items are placed at the bottom of the truck and smaller and lighter
items are placed at the top.
4. For loads that are much larger than the toe plate and frame of the
hand truck (i.e. white goods) use restraints such as cam buckle or
ratchet strap and wrap around the load and the upright of the
truck.
5. When transporting over uneven surfaces, make sure you use
restraints to secure the load to the truck.
6. When lifting the loads make sure you have both feet on the
ground and stand slightly back from the truck, Zero Hand Trucks
do not require you to place a foot on the axle.
7. Keep your back straight or with a slight bend when lifting and
manoeuvring the hand truck. Never operate in an awkward or
bent over position.
8. Always make sure the load is balanced over the wheels. The
operator is only there to stabilise and push the load. Never take
the brunt of the load yourself, let the truck do the work.
9. When transporting the load, only ever push forward. Never pull
the load backwards –if you trip, the load will fall on top of you and
could cause serious injury.
10. Always maintain a safe speed whilst using a hand truck –you
must always be in control of the truck.
11. Hand truck injuries typically occur when knocking into stationary
objects and trapping your hand in between the object and the
handle. Take extra care when manoeuvring through tight spaces
and wear gloves for added safety.

12
12. When travelling up or down stairs, make sure to keep your back
straight or at a slight angle. If you are bent down and trying to lift
you could cause injury or the weight of the load may pull you
down the stairs. Typically, you should be one extra step above
the hand truck when lifting and take an extra step back at the top
of a flight of stairs.
13. When bringing a load down a set of stairs, make sure to add
tension to the springs by turning the hand screws 3 or 4 full turns
into the springs. This will cushion the load when dropping to each
step.
14. In a work environment, always park the truck in a designated
area, never leave in an aisle or area of traffic.
15. Never leave a load stationary on the truck for a long period of
time as this may deform the wheels.
16. Finally, when the Zero Hand Truck is used correctly it is an
excellent aid for material handling. It greatly reduces the chance
of injury and strain so follow these guidelines and let the truck do
the work for you.

Schritt 1
Der Handwagen hat Kunststoffstopfen im äußeren Teil der Achse an der
Unterseite des Rahmens (siehe Abbildung unten) diese müssen vor der
Montage entfernt werden.

17
Schritt 2
Schieben Sie die 20mm Achse (4) durch das Loch des Rahmens (1) (wo
der Kunststoffstopfen entfernt wurde) und den inneren Teil des
Rahmens, so dass auf jeder Seite des Rahmens die Achse gleichmäßig
heraus steht. Eventuell müssen Sie Druck auf die äußere Achse auf die
Federn ausüben, um die 20mm Achse durchzufädeln.

Schritt 3
Jetzt auf die Achse die Achsscheiben (6), Distanzstücke (7), Räder (3)
und Kappen (10) in der Reihenfolge wie unten abgebildet montieren. Es
ist am einfachsten, diesen Schritt durchzuführen, indem Sie den Wagen
auf die Seite drehen und die Kappen mit einem Gummihammer oder der
Handfläche anschlagen.

Schritt 4
Um die Räder an der Achse zu sichern, drehen Sie den Wagen auf die
Seite, damit Sie die Kappen mit einem weichen Gummihammer oder der
Handfläche gut anfassen können. Stellen Sie sicher, dass Sie etwas
Tuch oder Pappe usw. unter das andere Rad des Wagen legen, um die
gegenüberliegende Kappe nicht zu beschädigen. Führen Sie diesen
Schritt auf beiden Seiten durch.

Schritt 5
Setzen Sie die Fußplatte (2) auf die freiliegenden Enden des Rahmens
und befestigen Sie sie mit den M6 x 45mm Bolzen (8) und M6 Muttern
(9) mit einem 10mm Schlüssel und 5mm Inbusschlüssel. Dann die
Handschrauben oder Schrauben (5) in die Gewinde über der unten
abgebildeten Feder einschrauben.
