General recommendations for driving a forklift truck
Basic information for starting up a forklift truck
Entering and leaving the operator cabin, do not hold or pull the steering wheel to enter
the driver cabin, use the handles provided on the front structure of the overhead guard.
Always place one foot on the tread of the sill to prevent slipping when climbing in or out
(fig. 1)
.
Never start or operate any of the controls unless seated on the driver’s seat.
Keep the driver’s cab free of objects and tools. These may move around, block a control
or a pedal, and prevent a manoeuvre or stop the forklift.
Before starting to work with the forklift, clean any oil or fuel spills, clean and remove
grease from hands and the soles of shoes

operations and daily checks listed in the “General maintenance chart” on this Operator’s
and Safety Manual.
Check the correct position and fastening of all the guards, caps and safety stops.
Check that all the controls are operating correctly.
