Powered PalletPal® Levelers/Lifters
Powered PalletPal Levelers/Lifters from Southworth are engineered to improve efficiency and safety in material handling operations, accommodating a variety of pallet sizes, weights, and product dimensions. With operator-controlled height adjustment via foot controls, these lifters allow for easy loading and unloading at optimized working heights. The manual turntable top enables 360° rotation, ensuring that operators can always work from the near side, minimizing strain and improving productivity.
For added versatility, choose from the hydraulic configuration for 115-volt power applications, or the pneumatic option for environments with shop air (80 psi/15 cfm).
Key Features
- Load Capacity: Handles various pallet sizes and weights efficiently.
- Height Adjustment: Operator-controlled for precise positioning.
- Turntable: Low-friction bearing-supported turntable
- Mobility: Fork pockets for easy relocation
- Power Source: Hydraulic units operate on 115-volt power; pneumatic units on shop air (80 PSI/15 CFM)
- Stability: Features a wide base for stability during operation

Customization Options
Solid Disc Cover
Solid steel disc cover can be used in place of an open turntable ring. Ideal for damaged pallets or small / odd sized pallets or skids.
Bellows Accordion Skirting
Black and yellow vinyl skirting wraps can be added to keep the area underneath the unit free from debris. The pleats expand and contract as the unit raises and lowers.
Change Primary Voltage
This option allows you to change the primary voltage to 460/3/60 (hydraulic units only).
One-Touch Auto Leveling
One-touch auto leveling makes it easy to raise or lower the lift platform with a touch of a button. Especially helpful in palletizing applications where box dimensions remain constant from load to load.

Troubleshooting
Lift will not lower
Possible Cause | Check This |
Down valve may be energized | Check the solenoid in the valve with a volt meter. |
Flow control needs adjustment | Adjust flow control as needed. |
Lift will not raise
Possible Cause | Check This |
Weight of load too heavy | Ensure that the actual weight of the load is at or below maximum allowed. |
Motor not running | Check the main disconnect switch, fuses, and wiring to the motor. A 20 amp designated breaker must be supplied for 110V. |
Hydraulic oil level low | When lift is raised as far as possible, oil level should be 3/4" from bottom of tank. When lift is down, 3/4" from top. |
Lift has reached its upper limit | Upper limit switch may need to be adjusted. |
Motor may be "single phasing" | If motor hums but does not turn, check motor wiring and line fuses. |
Motor voltage too low | Supply voltage should be +/- 10% of the rating at the motor terminals. |
Tank vent plugged | If supplied, remove solid plug from tank and insert vent plug. |
Suction filter clogged | Clean suction filter as described in periodic maintenance. |
Vacuum leak in suction line | Check all fittings in suction line. |
Down valve may be energized | Ensure that the down valve coil is not being energized when the up button is pushed. Verify no stray voltage to down valve coil preventing it from being fully closed. Check the wiring. |
Missing coupling | Ensure that debris is not holding the down valve plunger open. |
Lift fails to hold
Possible Cause | Check This |
Down valve may be leaking | Remove down valve and inspect for debris which may be preventing it from closing. |
Down valve may be energized | Ensure that the down valve coil is not being energized when the up button is pushed. Verify no stray voltage to down valve coil preventing it from being fully closed. Check the wiring. |
Cylinder may be leaking | Check for oil in cylinder in the vent line. |
