The rating assumes a balanced load on a flat, hard surface - going up a curb, over a threshold, or onto a ramp raises the effective load well above the static weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDo I need a two-wheel or four-wheel truck?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo-wheel trucks tilt and balance the load, which suits stacked boxes and drums moved short distances. Four-wheel platform trucks carry the load flat and are easier over long runs, but need more room to turn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat PPE goes with manual material handling?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSafety-toe footwear is the baseline because the failure mode is a dropped or rolling load. Grip gloves help with loads that shift. Neither substitutes for matching the equipment to the load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes OSHA set a maximum lifting weight?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. OSHA has no numeric lifting limit; it addresses manual handling through the General Duty Clause. NIOSH publishes a lifting equation that is widely used to evaluate tasks, but it is guidance rather than a regulation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is a stair-climber hand truck?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA stair-climber uses a tri-wheel cluster or belt so the truck rotates up one step at a time instead of being dragged. It reduces the shock loading on the operator but does not reduce the total weight being moved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere do the specifications on this page come from?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey are taken from the manufacturer's published listing.
