Pallet Trucks.

Pallet trucks are simple yet effective material handling devices designed to lift and transport palletised loads. They typically consist of a pair of forks that slide under the pallet, a hydraulic lifting system, and a handle for steering. 

When selecting a pedestrian pallet truck from the LiTE range, consider the weight capacity to match your typical loads – our models range from 1.5t to 2.0t. Look for ergonomic tiller heads and controls to reduce operator fatigue during everyday use. Check the fork dimensions and overall length to ensure compatibility with your pallets and workspace. The turning radius is essential for manoeuvrability in tight spaces like retail stockrooms or narrow aisles. For the LiTE range, prioritise straightforward operation, low maintenance requirements, and features like lithium-ion batteries for reliable daily performance.

Electric pallet trucks in the LiTE range offer numerous benefits like reducing physical strain on operators, as the electric drive and lift systems handle loads with minimal manual effort. The lithium-ion batteries provide long-lasting power with low operating costs and no water filling required, reducing downtime. They operate quietly, making them ideal for indoor use in retail and light warehouse settings. Fast charging capabilities mean minimal interruptions to your working day, while the straightforward design keeps maintenance simple and servicing costs low.

The LiTE range is designed to match different everyday applications without unnecessary complexity. The PWL15-20E-Q2 offers compact dimensions ideal for tight spaces and lighter loads. The PWL16-20-Q2 adds pallet entry rollers for faster handling in confined areas like lorries and elevators. The PPL20-Q2 includes a rider platform for improved efficiency over medium distances.

Each model focuses on specific day-to-day requirements, ensuring you get the right level of capability for your operation without paying for features you don't need.

The LiTE range pallet trucks have load capacities from 1.5 to 2.0 tonnes, perfect for standard everyday pallet handling.

These specifications make them suitable for retail, light logistics, small manufacturing, and workshop environments where reliable performance matters more than heavy-duty capacity.

The primary difference in value is that motorised (fully electric) pallet trucks offer superior long-term ROI through increased productivity and lower physical operating costs compared to manual or semi-motorised alternatives.

While manual trucks have a lower initial purchase price, electric models like the Lite range provide better value through:

• Fully powered lifting and propulsion 
• Reduced Total Cost of Ownership 
• Rapid payback as the electric power quickly pays for itself
