Thanks!

Good idea but several mistakes.

Under each fork there are 2 little wheels, 1 is missing.

I don't know if it is an italian conception, but a normal transpalet must have the big wheel aligned with the arm, not offset.

And the handle is missing.

I agree with Alex about the rear dual wheels setup (and the missing front wheels and control handle as well). A 1:1 one with such a setup would not last very long....

The Plus Model one



or the J's Work ones



and also the Hauler one :



look to be more accurate....

H.P.

I agree with the big wheels and the release lever. But one roller under each fork is possible.

In my company, we use a Hubwagen that has two small rollers left and right of the lever. These rollers are moving freely, which mean the can maneuver beteer in tight confinements.

I agree on the single folk wheel. The other issue with the rear wheel, how does it turn, with brackets on the outside of the wheel? I think you could rotate the wheels from behind to underneath and then rebuild the trapezoid frame work to have the forks sit level. Since it's not carrying weight, I would separate the wheels and add a post in the middle so you could turn the jack. Then cause I don't understand how does the jack raise on a spring action and not a hydraulic jack? You could fashion a hydraulic jack and add the lever. At least that's what I think I would do with my pallet jack.
I think Frenchy's options are better for a more realist pallet jack. The Plus model looks to be for European pallets and J Model for American pallets from what I can see with the fork spacing but I could be and probably am wrong with that.

Hi Ryan. Usually the front has 2 wheels aligned under the front handle that are aligned to the pull handle. They turn as you pull or push on the handle in the direction you want to go. They do not move separately or independly.The release handle is normally on the right side in the yoke that you pull. The back (wheels) are a cylinder shape which stay down as you pump it up to move. Normal pallet jacks, the rear wheels do not maneuver, only rotate forward and backwards. Basicly like the wheels on a traier.Hope this helps answer your questions about this.Note key word is usually. I'm sure there are exceptions I have never seen or used.

Thank you for your comments guys. I completely missed the rear wheel problem, sorry for that... Now that you all mentioned it I browsed through a lot of reference images and couldn't find this kind of rear wheel setup.

I guess there are indeed better options on the market.
