ABSTRACT:
A pallet system for transporting an item, such as a copier or printer, is described. The system comprises a base with feet and upstanding corner pieces which engage around the feet of an identical base to enable the stacking of pallet systems that are not in use. The item or copier to be secured to the base is retained between a fixed rear support member and an adjustable front support member. Location points are provided on each of the support members for engaging a locating member attached to the copier. The position of the front support member is adjustable by means of a scissor jack which is secured by a jack base to a point near the front of the base of the pallet system. The scissor jack is operated by rotating its operating knob, which includes a torque limiter to limit the torque applied to the copier, thereby enabling the copier to be firmly secured on the pallet without damaging it.
