Home » Pallet Handling » 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).

Troubleshooting

Lift will not lower
Possible CauseCheck This
Down valve may be energizedCheck the solenoid in the valve with a volt meter.
Flow control needs adjustmentAdjust flow control as needed.
Lift will not raise
Possible CauseCheck This
Weight of load too heavyEnsure that the actual weight of the load is at or below maximum allowed.
Motor not runningCheck the main disconnect switch, fuses, and wiring to the motor. A 20 amp designated breaker must be supplied for 110V.
Hydraulic oil level lowWhen 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 limitUpper 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 lowSupply voltage should be +/- 10% of the rating at the motor terminals.
Tank vent pluggedIf supplied, remove solid plug from tank and insert vent plug.
Suction filter cloggedClean suction filter as described in periodic maintenance.
Vacuum leak in suction line   Check all fittings in suction line.
Down valve may be energizedEnsure 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 couplingEnsure that debris is not holding the down valve plunger open.
Lift fails to hold
Possible CauseCheck This
Down valve may be leakingRemove down valve and inspect for debris which may be preventing it from closing.
Down valve may be energizedEnsure 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 leakingCheck for oil in cylinder in the vent line.
