Industrial Truck Operation
4.1
Safety regulations for truck operation
Travel routes and work areas:
Only use lanes and routes specifically designated for
truck traffic. Unauthorised third parties must stay away from work areas. Loads must
only be stored in places specially designated for this purpose.
Travel conduct:
The operator must adapt the travel speed to local conditions. The
truck must be driven at slow speed when negotiating bends or narrow passageways,
when passing through swing doors and at blind spots. The driver must always
observe an adequate braking distance between the forklift truck and the vehicle in
front and must be in control of the truck at all times. Abrupt stopping (except in
emergencies), rapid U turns and overtaking at dangerous or blind spots are not
permitted.
Travel visibility:
The operator must look in the direction of travel and must always
have a clear view of the route ahead. Loads that affect visibility must be positioned at
the rear of the truck. If this is not possible, a second person must walk in front of the
truck as a lookout.
Negotiating slopes and inclines:
Slopes or inclines may only be negotiated if they
are designated traffic routes, are clean and have a non-slip surface and providing
they can be safely negotiated in accordance with the technical specifications of the
truck. The truck must always be driven with the load unit facing uphill. The industrial
truck must not be turned, operated at an angle or parked on inclines or slopes.
Inclines must only be negotiated at slow speed, with the driver ready to brake at any
moment.
Negotiating lifts and docks:
Lifts and docks must only be used if they have sufficient
capacity, are suitable for driving on and authorised for truck traffic by the owner. The
driver must satisfy himself of the above before entering these areas. The truck must
enter lifts with the load in front and must take up a position which does not allow it to
come into contact with the walls of the lift shaft. People travelling in the lift with the
forklift truck must only enter the lift after the truck has come to a halt and must exit the
lift before the truck.
Nature of loads to be carried:
The operator must make sure that the load is in a
satisfactory condition. Do not carry loads unless they are positioned safely and
carefully. Use suitable precautions to prevent parts of the load from tipping or falling
down,
