First of all, the forks are not supposed to go all the way down to the floor, that would defeat the purpose because they would drag and you wouldn't be able to pick up a pallet. But if you think the forks should be able to go down further, just stand on the forks while pulling the lowering lever. You may need to grease the machine

Pallet jack will not go down

Is it a manual pallet jack? At the base of the arm you will see a lever that the handle controls (usually it is at the end of the chain). Assist the lever by pushing it in further than the handle can able. That should allow the lift to lower. Sometimes the pallet needs to be level to lower. If it is a powered lift, check the limit switches. Good luck!

Different Types of Fork Lift Trucks

both lifting and transporting of materials.These days building
projects all use forklift trucks.
There are many different types of forklift truck. Here are some of the
most well known;

batteries and includes scissor lifts, stackers and pallet jacks

Sideloader - this includes both Stand on End Control and Sit Down End Control.

Hand pallet truck - a pallet truck that is usually electrically powered.

Truck mounted forklift - usually a diesel run truck.

A small percentage of the forklift truck market includes high-end
speciality trucks.

In more recent years, Automated forklift trucks have been developed in
order to try and reduce the wages paid and operational costs of
running regular trucks. The popularity of automated forklifts has
grown massively.

I have a 9960 singer machine and am trying to use the buttonhole presser foot for the first time and I can not get it to sew T

the buttonhole foot snaps on to the presser bar, there's a little lever at the back of the presser bar that releases the foot, then put the buttonhole foot down on the needle plate & use the presser foot lifter (number 11) to lower the presser bar down onto the buttonhole foot & you'll hear a click sound when it snaps on & make sure to use the buttonhole lever(number 31) because the machine won't sew a buttonhole unless that lever is pulled down.

Pallet jack won't let down. The lever is moving the cam on the side at the bottom.

9 out of 10 times its the Valve in the rear of the piston housing the one that you pull the lever to let it downor kick with your foot as the valve return isent returning.back to the header tank..
