Step 5: Drive the pallet truck to the desired
location. To steer the unit, turn the yoke to the
right or left of the center line. Moving the yoke to
the right will cause the EPT to turn to the right, and
moving the yoke to the left of the center line will
cause the unit to turn left. The degree of
deflection from the centerline determines how
sharply the EPT turns. The illustration at right
demonstrates how the position of the yoke
determines the direction the machine follows.
LIFTING AND TRANSPORTING LOADS
To engage a pallet/skid, drive the unit to a position in front of the intended load. Before engaging the load, confirm
that the forks will fit within the fork pockets. Fully lower the forks to allow them to slide into the fork pockets of the
skid. Confirm that the net weight of the load plus the skid do not exceed the capacity of the EPT.
Continue forward until either the skid rests against the back (vertical/upright portion), or the forks are as far
underneath the skid as they can be. When the skid contacts the back of the forks, put the yoke in a neutral position to
stop forward motion. Wait until the stacker stops completely, and then lift the skid off of the ground/supporting surface
by pressing one of the two fork raising buttons. See
FIG. 11 on p. 19
.
Proper Transport Configuration: To avoid unintended contact between the skid/pallet and surface features, transport
the load to the desired location with the forks slightly elevated.
To release the load, stop in the desired location; fully lower the forks; and then slowly drive the EPT forward until the
forks are no longer beneath the skid/pallet.
BATTERIES AND BATTERY CHARGER
The charger allows electrical current to flow from
a wall socket through the batteries. While operating the
charger, contact with water (rain, snow, etc.) could result in
electric shock or electrocution. Do NOT recharge the batteries
if the EPT is outdoors. Only recharge the batteries indoors.
Turn off your EPT:
• EPT-45’s: Push E-stop to turn off the EPT;
• EPT-30’s: Press the E-stop button and turn the
key switch to the off position;
Disconnect the battery cable (EPT-45’s);
Press E-stop
Disconnect

Apply
the
fork
truck
operation
and
lifting
practices
learned
during
your
operator
training,
and
applied
by
your
employer.
Follow
the
instructions
below
ONLY
to
the
extent
that
they
do
not
disagree
with
the
operating
practices
required by your employer.
• Make sure that the net weight
to be lifted
(load +
skid)
does not exceed the rated load (capacity) of your truck;
• Center and evenly distribute the load
on the forks. The load must not project more than 2” beyond the tips of the forks.
3. Review the
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
on p. 3 before each use:
• Always apply
proper loading techniques;
• Ask a coworker to help you load and unload the lifter.
4.
“Operator”
means
a
trained and authorized person who controls any function(s) of the EPT.
ONLY persons
who
have
successfully
completed
a
training
program,
like
the
material
outlined
in
the
latest
revision
of ANSI/ITSDF
B56.1-2020 on pages 9-10, should operate the machine. Copies of ANSI/ITSDF B56.1-2020 are freely downloadable
from www.itsdf.com by clicking the "Download Standards" button and selecting the appropriate PDF file hyperlink.
Safe operation requires operators to:
• Develop
safe
working
habits &
a
process
for
identifying
hazards
that
might
be
encountered
duringoperation;
• Conduct thorough inspections of the usage area to identify unusual/hazardous conditions. Walk the path you will
use
to
transport
loads
with
the
lift
beforehand.
Do
not
use
the
lift
if
the
floor
(or
other
supporting
surface)
is
uneven or damaged or cannot support the combined weight of the operator, the lifter and the load.
• Make sure that the lifter has been inspected as recommended in the
INSPECTIONS & MAINTENANCE
section of
this manual (p. 54-55). Use the lifter ONLY IF it is deemed safe to use by designated inspection personnel.
Serious personal injuries or death could result from improperly operating this machine. DO NOT
operate your
EPT
until you read AND understand the
instructions in this manual.
