OPERATING PROCEDURES
44
A lift truck with-
out an over-
head guard pro-
vides no such
protection and
other personnel
have no over-
head protection.
Avoid hitting ob-
jects such as
stacked mate-
rial that could
become dis-
lodged and fall.
The operator must exercise care while working near such
objects. Whether the lift truck is loaded or empty, do not
travel with the load or carriage in a raised position.
WARNING
Keep yourself and all others
clear of the lift mechanism.
Never allow anyone under or
on the forks.
NEVER put hands, arms, head or legs through the
mast or near the carriage or lift chains.
This warning applies not only to the operator but also
a helper. A helper must not be near the load or lift
mechanism while the operator is attempting to handle
a load. The lift mechanism has moving parts with
close clearances that can cause serious injury.
