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.

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.
