Which action is part of operating a pallet jack to move it?

To move a pallet jack safely, you need to lift the forks off the floor so you can maneuver the load smoothly. This is done by positioning the control lever to the appropriate setting and pumping the handle to raise the forks about 3–5 inches off the ground. Raising the forks reduces friction against the floor, gives you better control, and prevents the pallet from scraping the floor as you move it. The other actions don’t provide the necessary hydraulic lift or control: lowering the forks to the floor defeats the purpose of clearing the surface; attempting to move with no lifting or with a one‑hand pull isn’t how the jack operates, and simply pushing the handle forward won’t engage the lift needed to relocate the pallet safely.
