Stop position at the stair
The point of balance can be changed by inclining the frame. Please take care that the
working angle of the lifting system is changed as well when inclining the frame. This makes
the maximum step height lower.
This is also important when you are already on the stair landing and the handtruck still has to
go up the last step.
Important:
When going down with inclined frame, please note: You are still standing on the stair landing,
holding the upper handholds. The lifting system is strongly inclined backwards. On higher
steps this may cause that the supporting wheels do not touch the next step below
immediately. Therefore LIFTKAR cannot be lifted from the upper step to the next step below.
Then the supporting wheels are partially already moving backwards. So the cargo is not lifted
completely. The handtruck could move downwards uncontrolled to the next step below.
When starting to go downstairs it is therefore important to hold the handtruck as upright as
possible and keep the balance.
This situation should definitely be exercised on the spot.
For high loads such as
drink dispensers
For low loads such as
washing machines
For easier lifting of heavy
loads put the shaft of the
supporting wheels
backward. Then push the
foot on it!
