A manual pallet lifter is used across a wide range of industries. The MPT7 is regularly chosen in the following working environments:
Food retail and general retail.
Delivery days are busy – crates, pallets of drinks, and confectionery all need to reach the shelves quickly. The MPT7 allows a single worker to manoeuvre full pallets through narrow aisles without waiting for assistance. That independence saves both time and labour costs.
Small production facilities and assembly workshops.
In manufacturing environments there is often no room for a forklift, yet materials still need to be moved. The mechanical pallet lifter MPT7 fits into tight workspaces and allows precise, stable load placement.
Warehouses and logistics centres.
In a warehouse, the MPT7 serves as an everyday tool for receiving, sorting, and positioning goods. It fills the role where large machinery is excessive but manual handling is inefficient and physically demanding.
Cold stores and food processing facilities.
In low-temperature environments, battery-powered equipment frequently struggles with reduced charge capacity. The manual pallet lifter MPT7 operates regardless of ambient temperature, making it a reliable choice for freezer warehouses and meat processing plants.
Builders’ merchants and industrial goods suppliers.
Heavy materials – tiles, cement, metal profiles – require equipment that simply gets the job done. The MPT7’s 1,000 kg load capacity means that most standard pallets are handled without difficulty.
Small businesses and start-ups.
For businesses just getting started, investing in a forklift is rarely justifiable. The MPT7 pallet lifter, available from €718.45, offers a professional-grade solution without significant capital outlay.
Not every business needs a forklift. Here is an honest comparison to help you make the right decision:

Conclusion: If your business moves loads several times a day within a single space using standard pallets, and your load requirements do not exceed 1,000 kg, a mechanical pallet lifter is the smart, cost-effective choice. A forklift only becomes justified when workloads are consistently high or lift heights exceed 2 metres.
A pallet lifter is a manual warehouse device designed for lifting and transporting pallets and heavy loads. The operator slides the forks under the pallet, raises the load a few centimetres off the floor using the hydraulic lever, and moves it using the handles. The MPT7's mechanical design delivers consistent lifting force without any electronics or fuel.
The MPT7 is rated to a maximum load capacity of 1,000 kg. This corresponds to a standard European pallet carrying a typical production or logistics load. Overloading can damage the equipment and create a safety hazard - always observe the limits specified by the manufacturer.
The MPT7 has a fork length of 1,150 mm with adjustable width, making it compatible with standard EUR pallets (1,200×800 mm) as well as other sizes. The adjustable fork width allows adaptation to different pallet types and non-standard loads - a significant advantage over fixed-fork models.
No certificate or specialist training is required to operate a manual pallet lifter. The ergonomic handles and intuitive controls allow operators to get up to speed quickly. It is advisable to read the safety instructions and learn the correct working posture to reduce strain on the back and prevent workplace accidents.
A manual pallet lifter such as the MPT7 is powered entirely by the operator's physical effort - no charging or fuel is needed, and maintenance requirements are minimal. An electric pallet lifter offers greater speed and less physical strain, but requires battery charging, regular servicing, and is considerably more expensive. For small to medium workloads, the manual option is often the more cost-effective solution.
