Use a Pneumatic Forklift
Pneumatic forklifts are common in warehouse and shipping operations. Also known as pump trucks or pallet trucks, they are utilized to move things and supplies around on wooden pallets using metal forks mounted on a wheeled counterweight. The counterweight has a pump that could lift the forks off the ground. A pallet truck is intended to be operated by a single individual.

To prevent loosing control while raising heavy loads, pallet trucks should always be operated with care. Machine must be inspected before operating. Clear the wheels area of any obstructions. Check that the handle can turn smoothly. The pallet must be stacked carefully to be able to ensure that nothing will fall off during transportation.

To be able to lower the forks and release air in the pump, squeeze the lever situated on the inside of the metal loop on the end of the pallet truck's handle. The forks could then be pushed into the pallet slots. The forks must be centered to ensure even distribution of the pallet's weight across them. Raise the forks from the ground by pumping the handle of the pneumatic lift until the pallet has fully cleared the ground. Do not raise the pallet too high or the forklift could unbalance.

Pull on the handle and drag it behind you if you want to move the pallet. It is dangerous to push the pallet in front of you because the thrust can cause it to go out of control. Slowly take turns and don't try to stop suddenly. Stop slowly, squeeze the lever, and the forks would lower to the ground. Finally, remove the forks from the pallet by pulling them out. Return the pallet truck to its permanent place.
