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 counterclockwise 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 counterclockwise
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.

      If your U-Line Trucks are leaking, it's likely due to worn or damaged seals. Replace the seals with new ones. Also, check for cracked or worn-out parts and replace them as needed.

      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.

      tpettyAug 25, 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.

      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.

      If the forks on your U-Line Trucks aren't raising, several issues could be the cause. First, check if there is enough hydraulic oil and add more if needed. Secondly, the oil may have impurities, in which case you should change the oil. Other potential causes include a discharge valve that is out of adjustment, which requires adjusting the setting screw, or air in the hydraulic oil, which needs to be expelled.

    How to fix forks on U-Line Trucks not lifting to maximum height?
    • A
      Alexandra MarshallSep 10, 2025
      If the forks on your U-Line Trucks aren't lifting to their maximum height, it's likely that there isn't enough hydraulic oil. Add more oil to resolve this issue.
