How Much Is A Manual Lift Truck? What Factors Should Be Considered When Choosing A Manual Lift Truck?

Oct 23, 2025

1, What are the types of transport vehicles

A handling vehicle, also known as a pallet truck or handcart, is a commonly used handling equipment in the logistics industry. There are many different types, mainly divided into:

1. Hand push trucks: including high lift scissor trucks, electronic scale trucks, manual pallet trucks, etc.

2. Semi electric handling vehicles: Semi electric handling vehicles, semi electric pallet trucks, etc.

3. All electric handling vehicles: all electric handling vehicles, all electric pallet trucks, electric pallet handling vehicles, etc.

4. Explosion proof manual hydraulic handling vehicles: Explosion proof ground ox handling vehicles, Explosion proof pallet handling vehicles.

In addition to the above, there are also simple handling vehicles, fast lift handling vehicles, manual handling vehicles, heavy-duty handling vehicles, economical manual handling vehicles, galvanized handling vehicles, ultra-low lift handling vehicles, stainless steel handling vehicles, weighing handling vehicles, paper tube handling vehicles, mountain handling vehicles, lifting handling vehicles, etc.

2, How much is a manual lift truck

Hand pushed transport vehicles work through a foot operated hydraulic pump to easily raise the platform to the required height, suitable for lifting and moving goods in various industries, facilitating transport work. The factors that affect the price of hand pushed transport vehicles mainly include: oil cylinder, wheels, outer width and fork length, and rated load capacity. Generally speaking, the larger the tonnage, the higher the design level, body material technology, and manufacturing technology requirements of hand pushed transport vehicles, and the relatively higher the price.

The price of hand push trucks on the market generally ranges from over 1000 yuan to over 10000 yuan, and the specific choice of how much money depends on the needs of the moving work and the tonnage requirements of the hand push trucks.

3, What factors should be considered when choosing a transport vehicle

When choosing a transport vehicle, it is important to avoid blind selection and consider multiple factors comprehensively, including:

1. The height of the pallet in the national standard is generally raised by 185mm, and various manufacturers of manual hydraulic handling vehicles in the national standard have also achieved a low height. Generally, hydraulic transport vehicles have two heights when placed at low points: 85mm and 75mm. For manual hydraulic transport vehicles, the height of the fork from the ground can reach 51mm, and some even 35mm, which is a special requirement. The low release manual hydraulic handling vehicle has low cost, relatively low efficiency, fast automatic lifting, and easy operation, making it a good tool for material retrieval and handling.

2. The width of the forklift fork: This key depends on the size of the pallet used. Generally, the standard size of manual hydraulic trucks is divided into two types: wide truck 680 * 1220 and narrow truck 550 * 1150. The specific type of truck that is suitable for oneself depends on the size of the pallet currently in use.

3. Hydraulic vehicle oil cylinder technology: Currently, all manual handling vehicle enterprises use two types of hydraulic cylinders, one is an integrated casting oil cylinder, and the other is a welded oil cylinder. Both have their own advantages, but in terms of technology, different manufacturers may lead to significant differences in quality.

4. Wheel material configuration: Generally, wheel materials can be divided into polyurethane and nylon, which need to be selected according to the different usage sites. For sites with better geological conditions and smoother ground, polyurethane wheels can be used for easy pulling. If the ground is not very good, and it is cement or asphalt road, or even worse road conditions, then choose nylon wheels, which are light to pull, flexible to rotate, and have a certain degree of wear resistance.

5. Thickness of forklift steel plate material: Generally, a standard 3.0-ton manual handling vehicle uses 4mm thick steel plates, and some slightly inferior steel plate thicknesses may result in cutting corners, so be careful when purchasing to prevent manufacturers from cutting corners and gaining price advantages. Such handling vehicles are also prone to malfunctions in subsequent use.

6. Load capacity: Generally speaking, there are four types of load capacities for Chinese standard manual handling vehicles: 2.0t, 2.5t, 3.0t, and 5.0t. However, according to the segmentation of market demand, some manufacturers' handling vehicles are also subdivided into 1.5T, 2.0T, 2.5T, 3.0T, 4.0T, and 5.0T load capacities, covering different tonnage operation needs of low, medium, and high. Customers can choose according to their actual needs.
