Lifting
FORKLIFT
1.Starts and Stops
-Never start to move your vehicle, in either
direction, until you have checked to see that
your path is clear.
-Avoid sudden starts. A vehicle going in sudden
motion might strike a fixed object or an
unsuspecting bystander.
-Avoid sudden stops. A quick stop is and easy
way to lose all or part of a load.
-Never step out of your truck until it has come to
a complete stop.
-When a fork - lift truck is not in use, the forks
must be fully lowered with the tips of the forks
touching the floor. The controls must be placed
in neutral, and the parking brake must be applied
to prevent movement.
2.Load Handling
-Know the rated capacity of your truck in terms
of load weight and load center distance. These
essential details are always shown on the
manufacturers name plate.
-Never load your truck beyond its rated
capacity.
-Never allow anyone to sit or stand the counter
weight in order to increase the lifting capacity of
your truck.
-Never attempt to lift damaged pallets or crates
if a hazard will be created as a result of their
faulty condition or position.
3.Travelling
-All traffic regulations must be observed,
including authorized speed limits.
-Other vehicles, traveling in the same direction,
must not be passed at intersections, blind spots,
or other dangerous locations.
CRANE OR HOISTING DEVICE

device must not be used as an operating control,
unless the crane is also equipped with a backup
limit switch.
-A load must not be lowered below a point
where less than 2 full wraps of wire rope remain
on the hoisting drum. If there is doubt
concerning the safety of a crane or hoisting
means, the operator must immediately stop the
crane, and report the condition creating the
doubt to the supervisor.
-In the event of power failure, the operator must
place all controllers in the off position.
-When an operator leaves a crane unattended he
or she must land any attached load, place the
controllers in the off position, and open the
main switch. Before closing a main switch the
operator must make sure all controllers are in the
off position. The main switch does not need
