MAKE SURE YOU ARE READY

• Do not use this truck unless you are trained

and certified.

• Be certain you understand how your truck works and

the hazards that go with it. Don't use the truck if you

have any doubts.

• Know the capacity of your truck. Make certain you use

the correct units of measure.

• Some trucks are not allowed in areas where there are

fire hazards. Be certain your truck is the correct fire

safety type for the area.

• Make sure your hands and shoes are clean and dry, and

your clothing is proper for the job.

MAKE SURE YOUR TRUCK IS READY

• Inspect your truck before using it (see pages 21 and 22).

If it's not working right, or something is broken, report

the problem to your supervisor. Don't use the truck.

• In an open area, test the braking. Check at a slow travel

speed first, then a faster one. Know the distance it takes

to stop before you start work.

The most

important

component

is you.

USE CAUTION, BE ALERT

• Watch where you're driving. Don't let any part of your

body get pinned or crushed between the truck and a

fixed object.

• Stay to the side of the truck when traveling power unit

first. Make sure the truck won't hit your leg or run over

your foot.

• When traveling forks first keep both hands on the control.

Be careful when changing direction. Keep your feet

clear of the truck.

• Travel in the direction that gives you the best view.

Look where you are going and slow down in congested

areas.

• Slow down for wet or slippery floors. Don't run over

things. Watch out for rough floors.

• Look where you are going before you change direction

of travel.

• See that you have room to drive and turn. Watch out

for power unit swing.

• Slow down when making turns.

• Avoid sudden movement of controls. Learn to use them

smoothly at a moderate, even rate.

• Be extra careful if you must use your truck in an area

where there is a risk of falling objects.

• Never ride on your truck.
