Adelaide Trailer Hire’s sack trucks are designed to be used on flat, hard surfaces only. They are not suitable for stairs or uneven surfaces.
MAX LOAD: 200kg (Sack truck specifications may vary).
- Check the trolley is in good working order prior to use.
- Assess the load before moving to ensure it is suitable for the trolley.
- Secure unstable or heavy loads using a load strap.
- Never go faster than walking speed.
- Keep the loads centre of gravity as low as possible.
- When moving multiple objects, place lighter objects above heavier objects.
- Ensure that the load is balanced so that the weight is taken on the axle and not the handles.
- Restrict the height of the load to allow for a clear view ahead of you.
- Let the truck take the weight of the load. The operator should only push and balance the truck.
