High lift trucks are usually found in areas such as wholesale and retail, warehousing and freight forwarding. While manual high lift trucks are particularly suitable for short distances, longer distances can also be easily managed with electric reach trucks. They are the perfect support for storing pallets in high racks and transporting them from A to B. With electric high lift trucks, goods can be stored up to a height of 6 m. This in turn makes the use and purchase of expensive forklifts superfluous. Since the use of most reach trucks does not require a forklift license, you not only save money on the purchase, but are also more flexible in the use of the equipment. Compared to a low lift truck, the high lift truck also has a lifting frame and a fork carriage. Higher quality high lift trucks are also equipped with a free lift mast, which enables goods to be lifted without the mast extending and thus the height of the forklift changing. This means that many high lift trucks can also navigate through doors with raised loads or can be used without any problems in low ceilings.
1
Stand behind the pallet truck . Operate the small lever in the middle of the handle on the tiller.
2
Push the lowering lever up [or towards you] to lower the forks. [Note that if the forks do not descend completely, this could be a sign of too much hydraulic oil in the lift cylinder.] If the forks are already fully lowered, you will not see them move.
3
Push the forks under the pallet. Be a little more careful at first, as it may happen that the pallet truck has not been lowered sufficiently. Please always check this before driving under the goods or pallet.
4
Press the lever all the way down again. As soon as you have moved the forks completely under the pallet, [it is important that you have moved the forks completely under the pallet so that you do not just lift the load with the tips of the forks. This could bend the forks, press the lever in the drawbar handle all the way down again, in this lever position you can now lift the pallet by moving the drawbar from top to bottom in a pumping motion. Alternatively, you can also perform the pumping movement with the foot lever, which saves energy and time. The pallet is slowly pushed upwards by the pressure and can then be transported. Electric high lift trucks are much more ergonomic and energy-saving to use, especially during this step.
5
Return the lifter to the neutral position. When the goods have been pumped to the desired height, return the lifter to the neutral position within the drawbar handle. As soon as the pallet is lifted and is not dragging, you can start moving the pallet truck. There are two handles on the lifting mast for precise maneuvering of the device. For longer distances, however, the drawbar is suitable for pulling the pallet truck.
High lift trucks are special because of their size alone. Accordingly, manual high lift trucks and electric reach trucks are particularly suitable for versatile and special work, especially in the storage area. Examples are the following:
