Product Description

Power Assist Pallet Jacks for Ergonomic Heavy Load Movement

Vestil Ergonomic Power Assist Pallet Trucks are designed to help operators move heavy palletized loads with less physical effort, making them an ideal solution for warehouses, manufacturing facilities, distribution centers, retail stockrooms, shipping departments, and other material handling environments. Built to improve productivity while reducing worker strain, these manual pallet trucks feature an innovative power assist function that helps initiate backwards travel through controlled handle movement.

Designed to Reduce Operator Effort

Starting and maneuvering a fully loaded pallet truck is often the most physically demanding part of the job. This product family is engineered to minimize that challenge by reducing the force required to move heavy loads. The ergonomic design helps personnel transport pallets more efficiently while lowering fatigue and strain associated with repetitive pushing and pulling.

Power Assist and Hydraulic Lift Performance

These power assist pallet trucks combine traditional hydraulic pallet jack lifting with an added travel-assist feature for smoother load movement. Operators can quickly lift and lower loads with the hydraulic hand pump, while the integrated assist controls help support backwards travel when engaging the handle properly. Nose wheels positioned at the front edge of each fork help provide cleaner pallet entry and exit for improved handling in daily operations.

Built for Industrial Material Handling Applications

Constructed from rugged steel for long-term durability, Vestil Ergonomic Power Assist Pallet Trucks are made for demanding industrial and commercial use. They are well suited for companies looking for an ergonomic pallet truck, power assist pallet jack, heavy-duty manual pallet truck, warehouse pallet mover, or a safer alternative to standard hand pallet trucks. This product family is a practical choice for businesses focused on workplace ergonomics, operator comfort, and efficient pallet handling.

Model Details

The Ergonomic power assist pallet truck is for anyone who has operated a fully loaded pallet truck and knows the most strenuous part is getting the wheels to start rolling. This pallet truck solves this back breaking problem. Pumping the handle of the pallet truck serves two purposes. First, it serves the traditional purpose of lifting the forks. Second, switch the power drive accumulator and by pulling the handle back, the pallet truck begins to roll backwards automatically, thus reducing the pulling force.

  • Rapid lifting and lowering through a hydraulic hand pump function
  • Ergonomic design requires only seventy-five (75) pounds of pulling force when fully loaded
  • Nose wheels are located on the front edge of each fork to assist in clean pallet entrance and exit
  • Rugged steel construction stands up to demanding workloads
