AVOID FALLS

• Stay away from the edge of docks and ramps.

• Check that bridgeplates and dockboards are secure. Be

certain that either the trailer wheels are chocked or the

trailer is locked to the dock. Check capacities. Be sure

your truck, with load, isn't too heavy for where you are

driving.

• Make sure the load you are moving is stable. Center

the load. Be even more careful with long, high or wide

loads. They can be less stable.

• Don't take your truck onto an elevator unless you are

authorized. Check the capacity or load limit and make

sure there are no people present. Enter load first and

set the brake.

BE CAREFUL TRAVELING ON RAMPS AND GRADES

• Stay out of the path of the truck.

• With or without a load, travel with the forks pointed

downgrade.

• If a load requires that you travel with the forks upgrade,

be even more careful. Operate the controls from the

side of the truck.

• Slow down and don't turn on ramps or grades.

WATCH OUT FOR OTHER PEOPLE

• Slow down. Yield or stop for pedestrians.

Use your horn when you come to a crosswalk

or intersection.

• Be careful that you don't pin or crush someone.

For example: Never drive your truck toward anyone

standing in front of a fixed object.

• Never allow anyone to ride on your truck.

• Keep others away from your truck while you're working.

• Don't let anyone use your truck unless they are trained

and certified.

• Watch out for power unit swing when turning.

WHEN LEAVING YOUR TRUCK

• Lower the forks. Turn the truck off or disconnect the

battery.

• Avoid parking on inclines. But if you must, block the

wheels of your truck.
