question about self loading transpallet

This transpallet climb up in the truck! It look cool for me, and will solve a lot of problems, but anyone know something about safety concerns?

Pretty slick, I suspect it will do as advertised for load and height. But, I'm not sure given US tort activity that it would be a good idea for anyone but the owner to use it in the states.

Yeah, and be sure to keep your feet out from under the lowering machine or bottom/rear forks. Tipping could be a problem area, too. Yes, very slick machine.

I've got a large pallet to pick up in the next town.

Then I realize there isn't any way to load the jack into the bed of my truck. What do I do, put a few bags of concrete on a pallet as a dummy load so I can get the jack in the bed? Seems the tiniest bit wasteful.

There is counterweigth in the tip of the forks!

I used it in the UK. The forks are counter-weighted, so there's no problem if there's no load on them. Anything under 600kgs it was a quickie for getting things done alone and by myself. HAd to be sure that the ground was as smooth as possible. Not a problem in the lorry and rarely at the site.
