Product Information
Full details
The GPC Compact Sack Truck Gi960Y is designed for homeowners, small business owners, and logistics personnel who need a reliable, space-saving solution for moving heavy items. Its primary strength lies in its lightweight aluminum frame and folding mechanism, which allows for effortless transport and storage in tight spaces; however, users should note that while it supports up to 90kg, it is intended primarily for moderate domestic or light commercial moving tasks rather than heavy industrial hauling.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This sack truck requires no tools for setup; simply extend the handle by lifting it until it clicks into place and fold down the steel toe plate. To ensure long-term functionality, wipe down the aluminum frame with a damp cloth after use to remove debris, and periodically inspect the wheel axles to ensure they remain clear of dust or hair. Store the unit in a dry, indoor environment to prevent oxidation and to keep the folding mechanisms operating smoothly. Always retract the handle and fold the toe plate completely before storing.
