Question 1

How does the Eagle Hand Pallet Truck with fork size 1150 x 550 mm work?

Accepted Answer

It's a heavy‑duty manual pallet truck that uses a hydraulic pump to lift pallets off the ground. Once a pallet is centered on the forks, you pump the handle to raise it, then push or pull the truck to move the pallet and gently lower it when you reach the destination.

Question 2

What are the key specifications of this model?

Accepted Answer

Key specs: load capacity up to 3000 kg; fork size 1150 x 550 mm; wheel size 180 x 50 mm; minimum lifting height 80 mm; maximum lifting height 180 mm; turning radius 180°; color combination orange and black.

Question 3

How do I lift and move a pallet safely with this pallet truck?

Accepted Answer

1) Position the forks under the pallet and center it. 2) Use the hydraulic pump to raise the pallet to the desired height. 3) Lock the handle in the upright position and push or pull slowly to move. 4) When you reach the destination, lower the pallet to the floor with the hydraulic lever and remove the forks.

Question 4

What pallets will fit the 1150 x 550 mm forks?

Accepted Answer

Pallets sized to fit the 1150 x 550 mm fork span will be supported. This is typical for many standard industrial pallets, but always verify by measuring the pallet and ensuring the pallet’s stringers or deck fit within the fork length and weight limits.

Question 5

How does the 180° turning radius and 180 x 50 mm wheels affect maneuverability?

Accepted Answer

The 180° turning radius allows tight turns in narrow aisles, while the 180 x 50 mm wheels provide stable travel and smooth rolling on level floors. This combination helps you maneuver loaded pallets more easily in confined spaces.

Question 8

What maintenance and safety checks should I perform before using it?

Accepted Answer

Regular checks should include inspecting forks for bends or cracks, confirming wheels rotate freely, lubricating moving joints as needed, checking hydraulic oil condition, and ensuring the handle mechanism operates smoothly. Do not use if any component shows obvious damage.

Question 9

How should I operate this pallet truck on different surfaces or in tight spaces?

Accepted Answer

Best results are on smooth, level concrete or similar surfaces. In tight spaces, use the 180° turning capability to maneuver gradually. Avoid rough, uneven, or slippery surfaces to prevent instability.

Question 12

How should I store and transport the pallet truck when it’s not in use?

Accepted Answer

Lower the forks to the floor when parked, store in a dry area away from moisture, and keep the truck out of extreme temperatures. Regularly inspect wheels and forks to ensure safe long-term use.
