Utilize a Pneumatic Forklift
You could usually find pneumatic forklifts in shipping and warehouse operations. Also known as pump trucks or pallet trucks, they are utilized in order to move products and materials around on wooden pallets utilizing metal forks mounted on a wheeled counterweight. The counterweight includes a pump which can raise the forks off the ground. A pallet truck is designed to be operated by a single person.
To be able to prevent loosing control while lifting heavy loads, pallet trucks must always be operated with care. Equipment must be inspected before operating. Clear the wheels area of any obstructions. Check that the handle can smoothly turn. The pallet must be carefully stacked to guarantee that nothing will fall off during transportation.
On the end of the pallet truck's handle, squeeze the level located on the inside of the metal loop in order to lower the forks and release the air in the pump. The forks can then be pushed into the pallet slots. The forks must be at the center in order to guarantee equal distribution of the pallet's weight across them. Lift the forks from the ground by pumping the handle of the pneumatic lift until the pallet has completely cleared the ground. Do not lift the pallet too high or the forklift can unbalance.
Pull on the handle and then drag it behind you if you want to move the pallet. It is not safe to push the pallet in front of you as the thrust could cause it to go out of control. Take turns slowly and don't attempt to stop abruptly. Gradually stop, squeeze the lever, and the forks will lower to the ground. Lastly, remove the forks from the pallet by pulling them out. Return the pallet truck to its permanent place.
