2. Safety Instructions

Always prioritize safety when operating the multi-truck. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious injury or property damage.

• Load Capacity: Do not exceed the maximum load capacities: 150 kg (330 lbs) for handtruck mode and 200 kg (440 lbs) for platform mode. Overloading can cause structural failure and loss of control.
• Weight Distribution: Distribute loads evenly on the nose plate or platform to maintain stability. Secure tall or unstable loads with straps if necessary.
• Operating Surface: Use the truck on stable, level surfaces. Exercise extreme caution on inclines, declines, or uneven terrain. Avoid sudden stops or turns.
• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Wear appropriate safety footwear and gloves when handling heavy loads.
• Clearance: Be aware of your surroundings and maintain clear pathways. Ensure sufficient clearance when maneuvering through doorways or narrow spaces.
• Maintenance: Regularly inspect the truck for any signs of wear, damage, or loose components. Do not operate a damaged truck.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Converting Between Modes:

The STANLEY SXWT-MT519 can be shifted into a two-wheel upright handtruck or a 4-wheel cart in seconds without the use of pins or tools.

1. To convert from Handtruck to Platform Cart:
   • Ensure the truck is unloaded and on a flat surface.
   • Locate the convertible mechanism near the handle.
   • Release the locking mechanism (if any) and pivot the handle and main frame downwards until the platform is flat on the ground and the caster wheels are engaged.
   • Secure the mechanism in the platform position.
2. To convert from Platform Cart to Handtruck:
   • Ensure the truck is unloaded and on a flat surface.
   • Release the locking mechanism and pivot the handle and main frame upwards until the truck is in the upright position and the nose plate is ready for use.
   • Secure the mechanism in the handtruck position.

5.2 Using in Handtruck Mode (150kg Capacity):

• Position the nose plate under the item to be moved.
• Tilt the hand truck back slowly, using your foot on the axle or a gentle pull on the handle, to balance the load over the main wheels.
• Maintain a firm grip on the handle and push or pull the truck to your destination.
• For stairs, use the stair climber wheels by tilting the truck back and carefully rolling it up or down each step.

5.3 Using in Platform Cart Mode (200kg Capacity):

• Place items securely on the flat platform. Ensure the load is centered and stable.
• Use the handle to push or pull the cart. The heavy-duty casters allow for precise steering and maneuverability in tight spaces.
• Avoid sudden turns or movements, especially with heavy or unstable loads.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your STANLEY SXWT-MT519 multi-truck.

• Cleaning: Wipe down the steel frame with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

  • Inspect wheels and casters for wear, damage, or foreign objects. Remove any tangled debris.
  • Ensure all wheel axles and bearings are clean and lubricated if necessary.
• Fasteners: Periodically check all bolts, nuts, and pins for tightness. Tighten any loose fasteners to prevent accidents.
• Convertible Mechanism: Keep the conversion mechanism clean and free of obstructions. Lubricate pivot points lightly if movement becomes stiff.
• Storage: Store the multi-truck in a dry, protected area to prevent rust and extend its lifespan.
