Checking your Fork Truck for Safety
Like any industrial equipment, the fork truck should be used with some care. However, not like a car, steering is done on the back wheel giving the equipment a different center of balance. Anybody working within the vicinity of a fork truck and anybody operating this particular machinery should understand safe operating procedures and workplace safety guidelines.

Safe operation of a forklift before driving it will include a visual inspection. Worn tires and fuel leaks are potential dangers that an operator should inspect. The lifts, forks and the overhead guard must be checked thoroughly. The safety handle should be utilized just when the forklift is being mounted.

The horns, alarms and lights must be tested to guarantee that they are working well. Monitors and gauges must be adjusted properly. The seat should be adjusted and safety belt fastened prior to starting the truck.

Taking careful turns and choosing a lower rate of speed will help the operator avoid tipping the machine. If the load blocks the vision of the operator, the truck should be driven in reverse gear. Always be aware of the location of any obstacles and pedestrians when driving.

The operator must always sit in the cage enclosure and keep all parts of the body inside the vehicle so as to avoid any risk of injury. The forks must be kept a few inches above the floor while driving. Never lower or raise lifts while you are driving or the truck could become unstable. Never permit anybody to walk under lift when the engines are running.

Basic driving safety includes stopping at intersections and watching for approaching traffic. It is a great idea to sound the horn before proceeding as well as periodically when operating within aisles. That way, you will alert any approaching individual to your presence.
