This document is the operator's manual for the Super Handy 330Lbs Material Lift. It provides comprehensive information on the device's function, technical specifications, assembly, operation, and maintenance.
Function Description
The Super Handy Material Lift is a compact and easy-to-operate device designed for handling and loading/unloading heavy objects. It is suitable for small and medium-sized warehouses, processing workshops, and home use. The lift can move heavy objects over short distances or in small spaces, enhancing efficiency in various operations. It features both fork and flatbed (optional) load modes, allowing for versatility in handling different types of items. The lift is equipped with a winch system for raising and lowering loads, and a brake mechanism for secure parking and movement control.

Usage Features
Assembly: The manual details an eight-step assembly process:
- Wheel Axle Installation: Insert the wheel axle into the holes of the base and pedals.
- Wheel Axle Fixation: Secure the wheel axle with a flange bolt.
- Wheel Installation: Use hexagonal bolts to tighten the bushing, wheel, and wheel axle.
- Wheel Carrier Assembly Installation: Insert the wheel carrier assembly into the base, align holes, and secure with D-shaped pins.
- Fork Installation: Insert the forks into the fork interface, align holes, and secure with D-pins, using a rubber hammer if needed.
- Flat Plate Installation: Place the flat plate on the forks, align holes, and secure with pins and R-pins.
- Handlebar Installation: Insert the handlebar into the locating block and tighten with an M8x45 bolt, ensuring it faces downward.
- Winch Handle Installation: Insert the handle and washer onto the winch and tighten with an M12 nut.
Commissioning & Preparation:
- Before operation, ensure all bolts are securely tightened.
- Perform a no-load test run to confirm flexible universal wheel rotation and free forward/backward movement.
- Verify that the load does not exceed 330lb (150Kgs).
- Always park the equipment with the brake device engaged on flat ground, especially with heavy loads.
Operation:
- Placement of Heavy Objects: Heavy objects must be centered on the fork flatbed, aligned with the fork's center line. If objects may slide, they should be secured to the forks.
- Brake Mechanism: To move the lift, press the pedal to release the brake (off position). To stop or park, press the brake pedal to engage the brake (engaged position) to prevent sliding.
- Heavy Objects Handling:
- Place objects as per placement guidelines (7.1).
- Release brakes before moving; engage brakes when stopped or parked.
- Tilt Operation (for loads under 60Kgs): To increase driving speed and efficiency, the lift can be tilted. Ensure fork height from the base does not exceed 200mm. Hold the armrest with both hands, place a foot on the wheel axle of the base, and tilt the lift backward at the correct angle. Maintain the tilt for travel. To return to the ground, step on the wheel axle and slowly lower the lift until all four wheels touch.
- Positioning Pin Operation: A star bolt can be screwed into a hole to fix the forks and prevent sliding during handling. Loosen the star bolt when lifting is required.
- Folding Handle Operation: Pull the handle outward slightly, then turn it inward to fold.
- Indexing Pin Operation: To perform lifting, pull out the index pin in the direction of the arrow and rotate it 90 degrees. To lock the handle and prevent fork/flat slides, insert the index pin into the positioning hole.
Maintenance Features
Regular maintenance and servicing are crucial for extending the equipment's lifespan.
Directional Wheel Replacement:
- Loosen the bolts.
- Remove the bushing and wheels.
- Replace with new wheels and tighten them with the bushing and bolts.
Universal Wheel Replacement:
- Loosen the four M5 locknuts.
- Remove the universal wheel.
- Replace with a new universal wheel and tighten the four M5 locknuts.
Pulley Replacement:
- Remove the retaining ring from the pin, then pull out the pin.
- Place the new pulley, ensuring the polyethylene rope is in its groove.
- Position the pulley, insert the pins, and use a tool to re-install the retaining ring.
Flat Plate Replacement:
- Adjust the fork (with plate) to a convenient operating height.
- Remove the R-pins from both sides and detach the flat plate.
- Place the replacement plate on the forks.
- Insert R-pins into the pin holes of the forks and plate on both sides to lock them.
Fork Replacement:
- Remove the D-pins from each side and pull out the forks downward.
- Insert the new fork into the mounting interface.
- Insert D-pins into the pin holes and lock them.
- Repeat for the other fork.
Polyethylene Rope Replacement:
- Note: Ensure the fork is in the lowest position for safety.
- Disassembly (Rope and Support Plate): Unscrew the nut, pull the wire rope with one hand, and pull out the screw with the other.
- Disassembly (Rope and Winch): Loosen the two nuts and remove the platen. Carefully pull the polyethylene rope out from winch holes C, B, and A in sequence to avoid injury from elasticity. Remove the rope from the winch shaft and pulley.
- Installation (Rope and Winch): First, insert the unbuckled end of the rope into the pulley groove. Thread the rope through winch hole A (inside-out), hole B (outside-in), and hole C (inside-out). Place the rope end between the two screw holes. Insert two screws (inside to outside) into the screw holes, place the pressure plate, press the rope, and tighten the nut.
- Installation (Rope and Support Plate): With the fork in the lowest position, pull the other end of the rope by hand to align the press button through-hole and the support plate installation hole. Insert screws into the hole and lock the nut.
Troubleshooting: The manual includes a troubleshooting guide for common issues like abnormal noise/jamming of the winch handle (causes: foreign objects on rope, rope breakage, roller damage, foreign objects in sliding rail, slide rail roller damage, star bolt disengagement) and the lift not moving smoothly or having strange noises (causes: universal wheel damage, directional wheel with foreign objects). Corrective actions are provided for each problem.
Warranty: The product comes with a twelve (12) month warranty covering material quality and workmanship, starting from the purchase date. The warranty does not cover issues caused by improper usage, operation not in accordance with the manual, or any modifications/tampering.
