Manual Forklift
WhatsApp Order
A Manual Forklift is a non-motorized material handling device used to lift, transport, and position pallets and heavy loads over short distances. Operated by manual hydraulic pumping and steering, it is an efficient solution for warehouses, workshops, retail storage areas, and small-scale industrial operations. Unlike powered forklifts, manual forklifts require no electricity or fuel, making them cost-effective, low-maintenance, and ideal for indoor use. They typically feature adjustable forks, a hydraulic lift system, and sturdy wheels for maneuverability. Manual forklifts are commonly used where compact size, quiet operation, and precise handling are required in confined or controlled environments.

Low-Volume Operations
o Cost-effective solution for businesses with occasional or light-duty lifting needs.
o Requires minimal training and upkeep.
SAFETY HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
Safety Precautions
-
Inspect Before Use
o Check for hydraulic leaks, damaged forks, worn wheels, and loose components.
o Test lifting and lowering functions before operation. -
Use Appropriate PPE
o Wear steel-toe boots to protect feet from dropped loads.
o Use gloves to improve grip and reduce vibration exposure. -
Load Safely
o Never exceed the rated load capacity.
o Center the load evenly across both forks to prevent tipping. -
Ensure Stable Ground
o Operate only on flat, solid surfaces to avoid instability.
o Avoid slopes, uneven ground, or wet/slippery floors. -
Correct Handling Technique
o Push rather than pull whenever possible for better control.
o Keep both hands on the handle and walk at a controlled pace. -
Secure the Load
o Confirm that the load is stable and will not shift during transport.
o Use straps or containment if necessary. -
Watch for Obstacles
o Keep the path clear of debris, cords, or other obstructions.
o Use mirrors or spotters in blind corners or crowded spaces. -
Parking and Storage
o Lower forks completely when not in use to prevent tripping hazards.
o Do not leave the forklift unattended in walkways or exits. -
Training and Awareness
o Only trained personnel should operate manual forklifts.
o Review handling procedures and safety protocols regularly.

Boom Sprayer
A Boom Sprayer is an agricultural implement designed to apply liquids such as herbicides, pesticides, fertilizers, and water evenly over large crop areas. It features a horizontal boom equipped with multiple nozzles spaced at intervals, allowing for wide coverage and uniform spray distribution. Boom sprayers can be mounted on tractors, pulled behind as trailers, or be self-propelled units. They enhance the efficiency and accuracy of spraying operations in farming, reducing manual labor and ensuring effective crop protection and nutrition.
Direct Drive Air Compressor
A direct drive air compressor is a type of air compressor where the motor is directly connected to the compressor pump, typically without the use of belts or gears. In this configuration, the motor and the pump share a common shaft, resulting in a more compact and efficient design. Direct drive compressors are known for their simplicity, reduced maintenance requirements, and higher power transmission efficiency compared to belt-driven or gear-driven counterparts. They are commonly used in various applications, including powering pneumatic tools, inflating tires, and providing compressed air for industrial processes.
Flat Webbing Slings
A flat webbing sling is a flexible and durable lifting or towing device made from a flat strip of synthetic material, typically polyester, nylon, or polypropylene. These slings are designed for various material handling applications, such as lifting and securing loads in construction, manufacturing, and transportation industries. The flat design allows for a wide surface area, distributing the load evenly and reducing the risk of damage to the load. Flat webbing slings often feature reinforced loops at each end for attachment to lifting equipment, providing a versatile and reliable solution for lifting and moving heavy objects.
Floor Jack 3T
A Floor Jack 3T (3-ton) is a heavy-duty hydraulic lifting tool designed to raise vehicles or other heavy objects up to 3 tons (6,000 lbs) off the ground for maintenance, inspection, or repair. It uses a hydraulic cylinder and lever mechanism to provide quick and efficient lifting with minimal physical effort. The low-profile design allows it to fit under most vehicles, including cars, SUVs, and light trucks. Widely used in automotive workshops, garages, and roadside assistance, the Floor Jack 3T ensures safe and stable lifting when used with appropriate support stands.
Fork lift
A Fork lift is a powered industrial truck used to lift, carry, and transport heavy materials over short distances, commonly used in warehouses, construction sites, manufacturing facilities, and loading docks. Equipped with two forks or prongs at the front, forklifts are designed to insert under pallets or heavy items and lift them using a hydraulic system. They come in various types, including counterbalance forklifts, reach trucks, pallet jacks, and rough terrain forklifts, each tailored to specific environments and tasks. Forklifts are essential for efficient material handling, reducing manual labor, improving safety, and streamlining operations in logistics and industrial settings.
Ratchet Tie Down Straps Set
A Ratchet Tie Down Straps Set typically refers to a pair of specialized straps used for securing and fastening cargo or items during transportation. These sets commonly include two individual straps, each equipped with a ratcheting mechanism for easy tightening and securing of the load. The straps usually consist of durable webbing material and feature hooks or other fastening mechanisms on each end. The primary purpose of these tie-down straps is to provide a reliable and adjustable means of securing items to prevent movement, shifting, or potential damage during transit. They are widely used in various applications, including securing loads on vehicles, trailers, or in storage.
Vibrating Screen
A Vibrating Screen is an industrial screening machine used to separate materials by size through vibration. It consists of a mesh screen that oscillates to facilitate the sorting and classification of granular or particulate materials such as sand, gravel, minerals, coal, and aggregates. The vibration helps move materials across the screen while finer particles pass through the mesh openings, and larger materials continue over for further processing or disposal. Vibrating screens are vital in mining, construction, recycling, and material processing industries, enhancing efficiency by sorting materials quickly and accurately. They come in various configurations, including circular, linear, and elliptical motion screens, designed to meet specific application needs.
Winch
A winch is a mechanical device used to pull in, let out, or adjust the tension of a rope, cable, or chain. It consists of a spool (or drum) operated manually or powered by electricity, hydraulics, or a combustion engine. Winches are commonly used in construction, vehicle recovery, marine applications, off-road towing, and industrial lifting. Their ability to exert controlled pulling force makes them essential in material handling and rigging operations where moving heavy objects with precision is required.
