15 Operating Instructions: DTP05(-Ex)
Wheel Replacement
Wheels should be replaced if damaged, cracked or delaminated. These are available from
STS.
For safety instructions refer to ‘Lifting the Unit’ in ‘Section I –
Correct Use and Application’
To replace the front wheels, jack up the leg or front of the unit for DTP08 models by 10mm so
that one wheel is clear of the floor. Unbolt the wheel and remove it from the unit. Replace
the wheel ensuring that the wheel bushes are re-fitted into the wheel prior to re-bolting.
Repeat this process for the other leg or side. If removing the front castor for DTP08 models as
well as the wheel, the unit will need to be jacked up high enough to allow the castor to be
removed from underneath the lifter body. When low level legs are fitted with pallet roller
wheels, the 20mm diameter wheel pin will need to be removed. To do this, remove the
button head bolt and hammer out the pin.
Use the same procedure as previously mentioned to replace the rear castors, ensuring that
the wheel bushes are re-fitted in the wheel prior to re-bolting. For DTP08 models, the rear
wheel used for steering will need to be jacked up high enough to allow it to be removed
from the castor.
