Where Is the All-Terrain Pallet Truck Used?

The Eichinger 1106 is ideal for any environment where a standard warehouse pallet truck would struggle. It is commonly used on construction sites, building sites, civil engineering projects, demolition yards, scaffolding depots, plant hire yards, agricultural premises, and industrial storage areas. The large rubber wheels handle uneven surfaces, compacted gravel, grass, muddy ground, and rough concrete with ease, making it the go-to choice for moving palletised loads outdoors or across unpaved site yards.

How to Operate the All-Terrain Pallet Truck

1. Adjust the steplessly variable fork tines to match the width of your pallet or load.
2. Slide the fork tines underneath the palletised load.
3. Pump the handgrips to raise the load to the required transport height (up to 280 mm).
4. Push or pull the pallet truck by the handgrips to move the load carefully to its destination.
5. Lower the load gently using the hydraulic release valve.

The pallet truck is delivered fully assembled and is ready to use immediately — no setup or commissioning is required. It is manually operated by a single person and requires no external power source.
