Load Handling,
How To Engage And Disengage A Load
1. Avoid fast starts.
Sudden movement
can cause the lift
truck to tip. People
can be hurt or killed
and material can be
damaged.
Approach the load carefully. Make sure that the truck is
perpendicular to the load. Raise the forks to the proper
height for engaging the load.
2. Move forward slowly until the forks are in position under
the load. The forks must support at least two--thirds (
@P3
)
of the length of the load.
Make sure that the load is centered between the forks.
Make sure that the forks do not extend past the load so
that loads or equipment that are behind the load being
lifted are not damaged. Lift the load a small distance from
the floor to make sure the lift truck has the capacity to lift
the load.
Be Careful of Forks
