     P3 ALL AROUND - PRESTO PALLET POSITIONER    

INTRODUCTION

The P3 All Around Pallet Positioner is a simple device that will automati-
cally maintain a load at the ideal height for manual loading and unloading.  
If a palletized load is placed on the unit, the unit gradually rises as boxes 
or parts are removed.  This automatically maintains the top of the load at 
the correct working height.

The unit may also be used for the reverse application.  An empty pallet may 
be placed on the P3 (P3 All Around Pallet Positioner).  The unit gradually 
lowers as boxes or parts are added.  Again, this keeps the top of the load 
at the correct height.  Complete pallets may be loaded or unloaded using 
a stacker or fork lift. See Figures 5 and 6.

This manual contains information to help you to learn about the safe and 
proper installation, use, and upkeep of your P3.  Please be sure that this 
manual is available to anyone who uses or services the unit.

P3 units may be used in a wide variety of industrial settings.  The instructions 
in this manual are not necessarily all-inclusive, as Presto cannot anticipate 
all conceivable or unique situations.  

In the interest of safety, please read this whole manual 

carefully.  Be familiar with the contents of this manual 

before you install or use the P3 unit.  If you are not 

sure of the proper procedure to be followed, please call 

Presto Lifts for more information.
