Technical description
• These trucks consists of robust steel chassis and is driving on a traction wheel and 2 load wheels.
Caster wheels provide for good stability even with high loads.
• The truck will be stopped by a regenerative service brake and hold by an automatic
electromagnetic parking brake in it’s parking position.
• The load is lifted by a hydraulic cylinder that activates a lifting shaft that transmits the lifting
movement by a push-rod to the load wheels.
• The control handle is used for smooth steering and control of drive speed, lifting and lowering,
braking and the horn without changing the position of the hand. The long tiller shaft allows
e󰀨ortless steering and a safe distance to the truck. A gas spring returns the control handle always
into a vertical position that activates the brake automatically.

the truck in conned spaces.

• A key switch secures the truck from unauthorized use.
• The ergonomic design of the truck guaranties safe and easy operation.

Wind forces can a󰀨ect the stability of a truck when lfting, lowering and transporting loads with large
surface areas .
Light loads must be especially secured when they are subjected to wind forces. This will prevent
the load from sliding or falling.
Stop the truck in both cases.
