    Safely Operating A Manual Pallet Jack

    ValuJack2

    Manual pallet jacks are used in many places because they help workers move and handle heavy loads. Although manual pallet jacks are not as dangerous as forklifts, they can still cause serious injuries and property damage when operated incorrectly.
    There are many ways a person can be seriously injured when using a pallet jack.
    • Loads can topple from tight turns, excessive speed, uneven floors and or inclines, causing contusions, abrasions, strains, and sprains.
    • Injuries and property damage occur when the load or pallet jack runs into walls, door jams, columns, shelves or run into other employees.
    • Injuries can occur when workers trip over the exposed pallet jack forks.
    • Back strain or shoulder strains from adjusting heavy loads or pulling the pallet jack.
    • A common but serious injury can occur when the pallet jack runs over and crushes the feet of the operator or anyone nearby.
    How can you prevent on the job injuries from operating pallet jacks? Here are just a few suggestions.
    • Establish and post clear safety rules.
    • Know your equipment. Never operate a pallet jack without being fully trained in safe operating procedures.
    • Never exceed the load capacity of the pallet jack.
    • Consider using a jack that has a brake and or back-rest especially when moving loads on an incline.

    • Wear proper foot and hand protection.  Keep your back strong and straight.
    • Use proper lifting procedures when loading, operating and unloading the pallet jack.
    • Inspect your pallet jacks regularly to make sure they are in good operating condition.
    • Never place feet, hands or any body part underneath a pallet or pallet jack.
    • Use a Toe Guard to reduce injuries to feet from pallet jacks rolling over the operator’s foot.
    • No horseplay! Do not ride the equipment or carry riders on your manual pallet jack.
    • Push, don’t pull! Pulling puts more strain on the back, shoulders, arms, and legs. The exception is when making small adjustments in the positioning of the load.
    • Use a pallet jack stop to prevent the jack from rolling out of control especially on an incline.

    Your pallet jack is not lifting properly? Or only half way?

    Bleeding the air out of the hydraulic unit is the first step to solving this problem.

    The main reason for having air in the hydraulic system is that you have a bad seal that is sucking air in, or the jack was upside down.

    All you need is an Allen wrench and a few minutes to watch the step-by-step video:


    • Put the jack on a flat level surface and pump it all the way up. Release and retract all the way down.  
    • Open the filler plug on the side of the cylinder with the Allen wrench. (Do not remove the screws on the base!) 
    • The location of the plug is significant because it indicates the proper fluid level. It may hiss a little as you unscrew the fill plug.  
    • Look into the hole and make sure the level is good. It should be right up to the fill plug hole. If it's low, top it off. Most jacks take about 1 pint of oil.
    • Screw the plug back in.
    • Put the handle release on the up position and pump the jack 10-12 times completely up and down to cycle out any air that is in the system. 
    • Then place the lever on the handle into the down position and test the jack. It should work noticeably better.
