Standard forks stop at around 1220mm, which leaves long loads overhanging and unsupported. The WRL20 runs from 1500mm up to 2000mm, long enough to take two Euro pallets end-to-end or to support a single oversized load along its full length.
The mechanism is the same proven sealed hydraulic unit used across the Warrior range — the difference is a reinforced fork section to carry the extra span without deflection. Capacity is rated at 2000kg, slightly below the standard truck, because the load sits further from the pivot.
Key Features
- 1500–2000mm fork lengths — supports long loads along their full length rather than overhanging
- Reinforced fork section — resists deflection over the extended span
- Sealed hydraulics — pressure relief and overload valve as standard
- Tandem nylon rollers — spread the load and track well over longer travel distances
- Full bushing and greasing points — serviceable in-house between inspections
- Exit and entry rollers — easier engagement despite the extended fork length

CE Marked | 12-Month On-Site Warranty
Supplied by Warrior, part of the Handling Equipment UK range. Manufactured to CE / UKCA standards and supplied with a declaration of conformity where applicable. Lift tables are issued with a test certificate to EN 1570 on request.
Warranty
Every Warrior product is supplied with a full 12-month on-site warranty covering parts and labour at no additional cost. Cover starts from the date of delivery and repairs are carried out at your premises rather than under a return-to-base arrangement. A comprehensive UK spare parts stock is held for every model in the range, and servicing, repair and statutory inspection can be arranged through WOLFF Onsite.
Suitable Applications
Timber and sheet material handling, steel and tube stockholding, glazing, modular and offsite construction, and double-pallet movements in distribution centres.
How to Use
- Check the forks are fully lowered and the pump is in the neutral position.
- Enter the pallet squarely, driving the forks fully home so the load sits over both rollers.
- Set the trigger to raise and pump the handle until the pallet clears the floor by 20-30mm.
- Move the load at walking pace, pulling rather than pushing where possible for better steering control.
- Set the trigger to lower and release the load fully before withdrawing the forks.
Warning: Long forks change the handling characteristics considerably. Allow a wider turning circle and never allow the load to overhang the fork tips.
Safety Information
- Check the load is stable and evenly distributed across both forks before lifting.
- Do not ride on the truck or allow anyone to stand on the forks.
- Keep feet clear of the wheels and rollers when lowering.
- Inspect the hydraulic unit for leaks before each shift and withdraw from service if the ram creeps.
- Do not modify or weld any part of the chassis or forks.
Inspection and Maintenance
Inspect weekly, paying attention to the pump seals, ram, load rollers, steer wheels and fork welds. Grease the pivot points at the marked greasing points. Any truck that will not hold a load, creeps under load or shows a cracked weld should be withdrawn from service immediately.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why is the capacity 2000kg rather than 2500kg?
The load centre sits further from the pivot on an extended fork, which increases the bending moment on the fork section and the load on the rollers. 2000kg is the rated safe capacity across the full length.
Q: Can it carry two pallets at once?
The 2000mm models will take two standard Euro pallets end-to-end, provided the combined weight stays within the 2000kg rating and both pallets are fully supported.
Q: How much extra space do I need to manoeuvre?
Allow roughly the fork length again as turning clearance. A 2000mm truck needs noticeably more aisle width than a standard 1150mm truck.
Q: Will this truck fit a Euro pallet and a UK pallet?
Yes. The distance between the forks is 220mm, which accepts both Euro (1200 x 800mm) and standard UK (1200 x 1000mm) pallets. Choose the 540mm overall fork width for Euro pallets and the 685mm width for CHEP and other wide pallets.
Q: What fork length should I choose?
Match the fork length to your longest common pallet. 1150mm suits the majority of UK and Euro pallets. 1000mm suits shorter pallets and tighter turning circles; 1220mm gives full support under longer loads.
Q: Does a hand pallet truck need a LOLER inspection?
Hand pallet trucks are generally covered by PUWER rather than LOLER, as the load is carried rather than suspended. A documented periodic inspection regime is still expected. Contact us if you need this arranging alongside your other equipment.
