Inspecting your Fork Truck for Safety
Similar to any industrial equipment, the fork truck must be used carefully. Though, not like an automobile, steering is done on the back wheel giving the machine a different center of balance. Anyone using a fork truck and everyone working within the vicinity of this particular machine must know workplace safety guidelines and safe operating procedures.
Safe operation of a lift truck before driving it will involve a visual inspection. Worn tires and fuel leaks are potential dangers that an operator must inspect. The lifts, forks as well as the overhead guard must be checked carefully. The safety handle must be used just when the forklift is being mounted.
To guarantee that they are operating right, the alarms, lights and horns should be checked on a regular basis whilst the monitors and gauges may have to be adjusted. Safety belt must be fastened and seat adjusted prior to starting the truck.
To prevent tipping the machine, always choose the low rate speed when driving and take turns cautiously. If the load blocks the operator's vision, the truck must be driven in reverse gear. Be aware of the location of any obstacles and pedestrians while driving.
To prevent any risk of injury, the operator must always sit in the cage enclosure and keep all parts of the body inside. The forks must be kept a few inches above the ground when driving. Never lower or raise lifts when you are driving or the truck can become unstable. Do not allow anyone to walk under lift when the engines are running.
Stopping at intersections and watching for approaching traffic are basics for driving safely. It is a great idea to sound the horn occasionally and before proceeding when operating within aisles. That way, you would warn any approaching individual to your presence.
