Any warning signs/instructions on the implement provide important information and
must be observed.
Ensure that you are familiar with the equipment, forklift controls and functions before

Ensure that you watch out for wandering individuals (particularly children!).
Always match your speed to the conditions and speed limits imposed.
Remember to take into account the size of any attachments to the forklift/loader you

Special Safety Instructions
Take extra care when hitching up or un-hitching the bag lift to/from the forklift/loader.
Be aware of what is under the bag lift (such as someone’s feet) before dropping it off.
Ensure that the forklift/loaders hydraulic system is in full working order.
Never allow any person to stand between the forklift/loader and the bag lift during
connection or at any time unless the forklift/loader is secured against rolling away by
use of a parking brake and/or wheel chocks.
It is forbidden to allow any persons to ride or sit on the bag lift at any time. Observers
should maintain a safe distance when machine is in use.
When performing any adjustments to the bag lift the forklift/loader engine must be
switched off to prevent the hydraulics from operating.
The driving characteristics of the forklift/loader are influenced and altered by the
attachment of mounted machines and it is important to ensure adequate steering and
braking ability as required.
