ATTACHING THE TERRAIN LOAD WHEELS ACCESSORY / INSERTING PALLET TRUCK.
The Terrain Load Wheels should be held using the wheel axle and pushed forward using the frame base plates into the open side of a crate or euro-pallet until the wheels touch it. The locking lever is then fixed so that the accessory cannot be pushed out when the truck is inserted.
The locking screw is loosened and the locking lever positioned so that it locks into place with the tip beneath the load being transported. The locking screw is tightened by hand in this position. If a second person is available to attach the accessory, then the locking lever is not required.
The forks on the pallet truck are inserted into the opposite side beneath the box or euro-pallet until the rear of the forks are touching the box/pallet. Ensure that both wheels on the pallet truck are resting on the frame base plates of the accessory before you begin lifting the truck. The load must only be lifted as high as is necessary for safe transport.
