At 51mm closed height, this truck enters pallets, crates and stillages that a standard 85mm truck cannot get under. That covers most American and Japanese pallets, shallow-entry timber crates, and any load where the bearers have been damaged and the aperture has closed up.
The trade-off is lift height — 165mm rather than 200mm — which is ample for moving loads but worth checking if you need to clear a raised threshold or ramp.
Key Features
- 51mm closed height — enters shallow-aperture pallets, crates and damaged bearers
- Sealed bearings and hydraulics — protected against dust ingress in timber and crate handling
- Tandem nylon rollers — spread the load over the shallow fork section
- Self-lubricating brushes — low maintenance in environments where greasing is impractical
- 3-position trigger — raise, neutral and lower from the handle
- Overload and pressure relief valve — protects the shallow ram assembly

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
Importers and freight handlers receiving American and Japanese pallets, timber crate handling, machinery and plant movement, printing and paper, and any operation where damaged pallets are common.
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: Never exceed the rated capacity, and never use the truck on a gradient where the load could run away. Pallet trucks are designed for moving loads on level, sound floors only.
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: What pallets need a low-profile truck?
American (1219 x 1016mm) and Japanese (1100 x 1100mm) pallets typically have a shallower entry than Euro or UK pallets. Shallow timber crates and any pallet with crushed or damaged bearers also need the reduced entry height.
Q: Why is the lift height lower than a standard truck?
The shallower fork section leaves less room for the ram travel. 165mm is more than enough to move a load clear of the floor, but check any thresholds or ramps you need to cross.
Q: Can I use it as my only pallet truck?
Yes for most work — it handles standard Euro and UK pallets as well. If you regularly cross raised thresholds, a standard 200mm truck alongside it is worth having.
Q: Can it be used outdoors?
On level, sound tarmac or concrete, yes. Nylon rollers are not suited to rough ground, gravel or unmade surfaces — a rough terrain pallet truck with pneumatic tyres is the correct tool for those conditions.
Q: What is covered by the warranty?
A full 12 months from delivery, parts and labour, carried out on your site. Wear items damaged through misuse or overloading are excluded.
