OPERATION
TECHNICAL DATA
WARNING! Operator must read and understand
instructions here and on truck prior to use.
On the handle of the pallet truck, you will find the control
lever, which can be set in three positions.
(See Figure 1)
- LOWER = to lower the forks
- NEUTRAL = to move the load
- RAISE = to raise the forks
1. If the forks elevate while pumping in the NEUTRAL
position, turn the setting screw clockwise until
pumping the handle does not raise the forks and the
NEUTRAL position functions correctly.
2. If the forks descend while pumping in the NEUTRAL
position, turn the setting screw counter-clockwise until
the forks do not lower.
3. If the forks do not descend when the control lever is in
the LOWER position, turn the setting screw clockwise
until raising the control lever lowers the forks. Then
check the NEUTRAL position as per step 1 and 2.
4. If the forks do not lift while pumping in the RAISE
position, turn the setting screw counter-clockwise
until the forks elevate while pumping in the RAISED
position. Then check the NEUTRAL and LOWER position
as per steps 1, 2 and 3.
NOTE: When viewing the truck from the handle
side, the setting screw is located on the right
side of the pump above the right wheel. The
truck will lower faster or slower depending on
how far in or out the screw is adjusted.

Questions and Answers

    Why do the forks descend without being lowered on my U-Line H-2708?
    • K
      Kimberly EvansAug 4, 2025
      If the forks on your U-Line Lifting Systems descend without being lowered, it could be due to impurities in the oil preventing the discharge valve from closing properly. Try changing the oil. Another possible cause is air in the hydraulic oil; in this case, you should expel the air.

      Leaks in your U-Line Lifting Systems can be caused by worn out or damaged seals. Replace the seals with new ones. Also, check for cracked or worn out parts and replace them as needed.

    Why do the forks on my U-Line Lifting Systems not raise?
    • M
      Manuel JenningsAug 18, 2025
      If the forks on your U-Line Lifting Systems do not raise, it could be due to several reasons. First, check if there is enough hydraulic oil and add more if needed. The oil might have impurities, requiring an oil change. The discharge valve may be out of adjustment, so adjust the setting screw. Additionally, air in the hydraulic oil can cause this issue; expel the air.

    What to do if the forks do not descend on my U-Line Lifting Systems?
    • J
      Jennifer WilliamsAug 27, 2025
      If the forks on your U-Line Lifting Systems do not descend, it could be because the rod and/or the cylinder are deformed due to a seriously unbalanced load. Replace the rod or cylinder. Another possibility is that a part has been broken or deformed from an unbalanced load; repair or replace the component. Also, the setting screw may not be in the correct position, so adjust it.
