Hydraulic Hand Pallet Trolley components and functions:
Components:
1. Forks: The two prongs that slide under the pallet.
2. Hydraulic Pump: Uses manual effort to lift the load.
3. Handle: Used to steer and operate the pump.
4. Wheels: Include steering wheels at the front and load wheels under the forks.
Operation:
1. Insertion: Slide the forks under the pallet.
2. Lifting: Pump the handle to raise the forks and lift the pallet.
3. Moving: Push or pull the trolley to transport the pallet to the desired location. 4. Lowering: Release the hydraulic pressure to lower the forks and set down the pallet.
Advantages: • Easy to operate. • Increases efficiency in material handling. • Cost-effective compared to motorized alternatives. Maintenance Tips: • Regularly check hydraulic fluid levels. • Inspect wheels for wear and tear. • Lubricate moving parts periodically.
Hydraulic hand pallet trolleys are widely used in warehouses, retail stores, and manufacturing plants for their simplicity and effectiveness in handling palletized goods.
