PalletPal 360 Manual
4. Set Up
Remove all packaging. Inspect the machine for damage. Verify all components were received.
If damage is found or components are missing do not continue the setup procedure; contact
customer service.
To avoid death or serious injury:
Do not enter beneath the platform unless the platform is secured against lowering.
During installation pinch points may exist. Keep hands, feet, and loose clothing away from
moving parts.
Do not sit stand or ride on the platform/rotator ring.
Installation of the main (orange) spring requires two people. Do not attempt to set the
machine up with only one person.
This machine is not designed to be lagged to the floor. Lagging the machine may lead to
damage during operation.
The PalletPal 360 is available in five possible spring configurations, or Ranges, with Range 0
having the lowest maximum capacity and Range 4 having the highest maximum capacity.
4.1 Range 1, 2, 3, 4 Setup
This machine will always be supplied with at least one spring. This spring can be identified by
an orange mark and larger diameter. This is the main spring of the system (excluding Range 0
machines).
To install the orange spring:
1. Remove the rotator ring by lifting it off of the platform. Set the ring aside in a safe location.
2. Note the position of the motion stabilizer and pin located near the middle of the base from
under the platform. Remove the pin securing the motion stabilizer to the platform. Allow the
motion stabilizer to rest on the floor.
