Step 3: Raise the deck to bring it to the level of the load. Turn the handle clockwise to elevate

the deck. Turn the handle counterclockwise to lower the deck.

Step 4: Center the load on the deck. Secure it to the deck (with ratchet straps, for example) if necessary

to prevent the load from sliding, rolling, etc.

Step 5: Lower the deck until it is just a few inches above the ground. Move the load to the desired

location. After you arrive at the unloading destination:

• Lock the castors or set the brakes;

• Turn the handle clockwise until the load is positioned at a comfortable height;

• Rest the handle on the winch mounting bracket; and

• Remove the load.

UStep 6U: Lower the deck until it is a few inches above the legs and return the lifter to its storage location.

Engage the brakes (if equipped with optional brakes) and lower the deck completely. Store the

lifter in a dry, indoor location.

RECORD OF SATISFACTORY CONDITION (THE “RECORD”)

Record the condition of the hand truck before putting it into service. Thoroughly photograph the unit

from multiple angles so that all operating mechanisms are clearly visible. Take close range photographs of

the labeling applied to the truck. Raise and lower the deck. Describe the operation of the winch.

Describe sounds heard as the deck rises and descends. How much effort is required to turn the winch?

Apply the brake and/or floor lock (if equipped). Photograph the brake and/or lock. Try to move the truck

with the brake applied and describe how the brake resists movement. Collect all photographs and

writings in a single file. Give the file a name that clearly identifies it. This file is a record of the unit in

satisfactory condition. Compare the findings of all inspections to the record to determine whether the

truck is in satisfactory condition. Purely cosmetic changes, like damaged paint/powder coat are not

changes from satisfactory condition. However, touch-up paint to be applied to all affected areas as soon

as damage occurs.
