Design Your Own Magliner Mix and match parts from our modular components system for the customized hand truck to meet your needs. Select from the components and accessories on the following pages Your Perfect Hand Truck Let Magliner Help Customize Your Hand Truck Frame 1 Handle 11 Nose AM Wheel 815 Accessory C5 Stair Climber = 111-AM-815-C5 Weighing In The weight of a hand truck can vary by as much as 30 pounds! Hand truck weight can make a significant difference on driver stress and fatigue. The average beverage delivery driver will lift nearly 14 tons less per year by selecting a hand truck just three pounds lighter. What is the difference between a weightlifter and a route driver? The average beverage driver will lift at least 24,000 pounds per day, and nearly 45,000 pounds during peak season. Weightlifters stretch before and after they lift weights; most drivers do not. Weightlifters give their muscles a minimum one day break to recuperate from lifting weights. Route drivers continue to use muscles, slowly causing degeneration. Most injuries don t happen from one-time occurrences they happen from repetitive movements over time. Increase the longevity of your hand truck Before you begin your workday, always inspect your hand truck. An inspection takes only a few minutes but can save you time and inconvenience later. Conduct a general overview look for any bent or broken parts and repair or replace immediately Check the tires look for wear and check to be sure they are properly inflated (if pneumatic tires) Review fasteners tighten any loose bolts Never use a hand truck that isn t in proper working order. If you use a broken hand truck you risk damaging your load and more importantly, you risk injuring yourself or others. 11
As the industry leader, Magliner has created this section to help you design the hand truck that best suits your needs. These recommendations are based on ergonomic evaluation, customer feedback, and engineering specifications. Frames #1 Straight back #2 (or B) Straight back lattice #3 Curved lattice back #4 Straight back with bolted molded cross members #5 Curved back with bolted molded cross members #6 Two straight (top) and one curved (bottom) bolted cross members Our most popular frame. Excellent general purpose frame for a wide variety of package sizes and use in most industries. A variation of our #1 frame with a vertical strap to best manage small package sizes. An all aluminum frame with curved cross braces and a vertical strap. Excellent for managing small cylinders or pails. Similar to our #1 frame but with polymer cross braces. The polymer cross braces are high strength and exceedingly impact resistant. They help protect against metal to load contact and reduce the potential for load damage. The curved polymer cross braces are specifically designed to cradle and provide stable load management for larger cylindrical loads. High impact resistance makes them excellent for managing heavy loads like kegs. A variation of the #4 and #5 frames providing high impact resistant polymer cross braces. Perfect for managing loads with a variety of shaped packages, specifically cylinders and boxes. Stress-Resistant Frames Heavy-duty frames with wider cross members for maximum durability. Recommended where the user frequently moves maximum loads and/or encounters high shock impact situations such as stairs, ramp-to-ground and other uneven terrain transitions. C Straight back D Straight back lattice This frame handles the most popular package sizes beverage cases, boxes, etc. A variation of our C frame wih a vertical strap, perfect for transporting smaller packages. Handles Handles are often selected based on user preference. The following are general benefits of the different handle types Magliner offers. Overall, the more simple the handle, the less weight it adds to the hand truck. Horizontal Loop Vertical Loop Double Loop Single Grip Double Grip Most popular handles allows user to grip on multiple locations depending on situation. Add additional comfort with vinyl sleeve or additional load support with U brace. Provide the optimum break-back comfort and allow users multiple gripping choices. Allow vertical gripping for easy break-back or horizontal gripping for controlled rolling; excellent for stair climbing or descending. Provide optimum balance point between user and hand truck; use high grip for control on stairs or low grip for easy turning. Excellent steering capability and firm grip for solid load control. 12 1-800-MAGLINE (624-5463) www.magliner.com
Design Your Own Hand Truck Noses Die-Cast Magnesium Extruded Aluminum and Steel Our most popular and highest value nose plates magnesium is extremely lightweight and durable, weighing 1/3 less than comparable products made from aluminum. They are temperature resistant so they work well in cold weather and freezers. Magnesium noses flex rather than break and easily return to their original shape for long life. Available in a variety of sizes to fit almost any load requirement. Excellent for scooping stacks and stair deliveries. Available in a variety of sizes making them an excellent choice for unusual package sizes. Wheels In general, 8 wheels in a similar tire and wheel compound are lighter than 10 wheels; 10 wheels typically provide better maneuverability over more diverse terrain environments. Mold-on rubber (815) Pneumatic (1060/850) Microcellular (1010) Balloon cushion (1030/830) A cast magnesium hub makes this one of our lightest wheels. The bonded tire is durable and rolls well over most paved surfaces. Pneumatic tires provide excellent shock absorption and load protection. Best uses include uneven terrains or surfaces such as gravel. Shock absorption means reduced impact on loads for less damage. Recommended when loads are consistently near maximum capacity. (Magliner recommends checking air pressure regularly and maintaining proper pressure). Microcellular wheels work well on challenging surfaces including rough and uneven terrain. Microcellular wheels are long lasting never need air, never goes flat. They provide some of the shock absorption capabilities of a pneumatic. A lightweight, excellent rolling tire and wheel that provides shock absorption characteristics only surpassed by a pneumatic. Shock absorption means reduced impact on loads for less damage. Hand Truck Accessories Stair Climbers Help climb and descend stairs with less effort. Optional polymer glide strips improve the ability to negotiate curbs, steps and stairs while reducing the potential for load damage or loss associated with stairs and curbs and they protect stairs from damage. Folding Nose Extends the length of the hand truck nose to carry additional bulky packages. Their use reduces the overall capacity of the hand truck to 300 pounds. Hi-U Frame Extension Keg Hook Available in several heights. These extensions provide additional stability for unusually high loads; add the optional padded cover to cushion arms for better comfort and fewer injuries. Provides additional stability for keg delivery especially on stairs. Wheel Guards Adding wheel guards provides a barrier between the wheels and the load, reducing damage especially useful with overlapping loads like flour bags. Accessory Bag Provides a secure place to carry hand-held computers, pencils, food service splits and other supplies. 13
