FAQs
What is an electric pallet truck?
An electric pallet truck (also known as a powered pump truck) is a motorised piece of equipment which is designed to lift and transport palletised loads. They are usually operated by a control panel or throttle on the handle which moves them in the desired direction and raises or lowers their forks. They’re also considered to be a more ergonomic option than manual pallet trucks.
You can also find semi-electric pallet trucks, such as this Pramac pallet truck, which operates with an electric transition movement but still has a manual pump lifting mechanism that raises and lowers the forks. Essentially, semi-electric pallet trucks combine manual and electric functions.
Typical features of an electric pallet jack are:
An electric motor to operate the equipment - some pallet trucks will also feature inbuilt chargers.
A handle or control panel.
An emergency stop button to halt the vehicle if necessary.
Pneumatic, solid rubber or polyurethane tyres (you can find tyres to suit your work surface).
Two robust forks which slot into pallets so they can be lifted with ease.
How much does an electric pallet jack weigh?
The weight of an electric pallet jack will depend on a number of factors, such as the model of the pallet truck and who it was manufactured by. That said, the weight of an electric pallet truck is typically around 453kg.

How to use an electric pallet truck
Operating a powered pallet truck is relatively straightforward. Here are some simple steps to get you started:
Before operating your pallet truck, check it over for any damage or faults to ensure it is safe to use.
Familiarise yourself with all the controls so you are comfortable using them. Please be aware that controls may differ from model to model.
Place your load securely on the pallet truck forks.
To manoeuvre the truck, gently pull the throttle towards you to move forward, and away from you to go in reverse. Steer carefully and be mindful of your surroundings.
To raise your load, press the "Up" button. Ensure the load is balanced before you start lifting.
To lower your load, push the "Down" button.
When you’ve finished using the electric pallet truck, store it away safely and recharge the battery so it is ready to use next time.

Are electric pallet trucks subject to LOLER?
LOLER (Lifting Operating and Lifting Equipment Regulations) are regulations which businesses operating lifting equipment must comply with. Vehicles subject to LOLER are those which can lift loads higher than 300mm. Generally, pallet trucks won’t fall under LOLER as they don’t lift loads high enough off the ground so there are smaller risks involved.
You can find out more about LOLER and electric pallet trucks here.
Do you need a licence for an electric pallet truck?
An industrial truck licence will be required for an electric truck if it can reach speeds higher than 6 km/h or if it has a ride-on platform installed.
Is an electric pallet truck suitable for outdoor use?
This will depend on the model, but pallet trucks are typically designed for indoor use, usually in warehouses. That said, you can find both semi and fully electric pallet trucks which can be used outdoors in dry conditions, but you should check with the manufacturer that the product is suitable for this. For example, some trucks will feature special tyres or other weather-resistant features.
Do safety checks need to be carried out on an electric pallet truck?
Electric pallet trucks which lift loads above a height of 300mm must be inspected on an annual basis (this is a requirement of the Health and Safety Executive).
Which electric pallet truck is right for me?
Here at Manutan UK, we understand the importance of choosing the right pallet trucks and trolleys for your workplace, which is why we’ve listed some considerations for you to make:
Where will you be using the pallet truck? You should consider the environment the truck will likely be used in. If you’re planning on using it outdoors, you’ll need to look for a truck with tyres to suit rougher terrains.
What will you be transporting? This will determine the maximum load weight you require. Moreover, if you’re moving fragile goods, you’ll want a truck with a lowering valve, so forks are raised and lowered more carefully.
What fork length will be required for your palletised loads? If you’re operating in a small warehouse, you may prefer an electric pallet trucks with shorter forks.
Will you require any special functions, such as a crawl speed button, to carry out tasks more efficiently?
What’s your budget? We offer electric pallet trucks at a range of prices to suit your budget.
Will you need to record the weights of loads? If so, a pallet truck with scales will give you accurate readings and streamline the process.
How often will the electric pallet jack be used and how long will it be used for at one time? Some trucks will have a longer battery life and will require charging less often.
