Intended use
The pallet truck with weighing device is intended for both manual lifting/lowering and the manual transporting
of loads, as well as for rough recording of weights up to about 2 tons. Its use requires a level and firm
floor/ground surface.
The “non-calibratable” weighing equipment can be used for
estimating loads
for internal purposes within the
specified range. The scale is only a rough recording of
about weights appropriate
.
The reference level should always be approached from below.
The pallet truck, with forks for independent lifting of loads, is intended for on-site transporting of unit loads, e.g.
in warehouses associated with industry and delivery companies etc., for short range transporting of standard
and wire mesh pallets as well as other palletised loads.
The pallet truck is not suitable for use in potentially explosive locations.
The pallet truck is not suitable for use in hostile environments.
The pallet truck is not suitable for use in cold-storage house.
The pallet is not suitable for use in areas where it may come into direct contact with food.
Alterations to the pallet truck and the addition of auxiliary units are only permitted with our express written ap-
proval. Ensure that you take note of the technical data and details on functional characteristics!
