Barrie Forklift Training School

Barrie Forklift Training School - The Importance Of A Forklift Training School When Using The Machine - OSHA and CSA establish criteria for forklift safety training that meets current standards and regulations. Anybody planning to use a forklift is required to successfully complete safety training prior to using whatever type of forklift. The accredited Forklift Operator Training Program is meant to offer individuals training with the practical skills and information to become an operator of a forklift.

There are forklift operation safety regulations which must be followed pertaining to pre-shift inspections, and regulations for loading and lifting.

Prior to a shift starting, an inspection checklist has to be done and submitted to the Instructor or Supervisor. If any maintenance problem is discovered, the machinery should not be used until the problem is dealt with. To indicate the machinery is out of order, the keys need to be removed from the ignition and a warning tag placed in a visible place.

Loading safety rules consist of checking the rating capacity on the forklift nameplate and determining if the load weight falls within capacity. The forklift forks must be in the down position when the forklift is starting up. Don't forget that there is a loss of roughly one hundred pounds carrying capacity for every one inch further away from the carriage that the load is carried.

Lifting must begin with the driver moving to a stopped position roughly three inches from the load. The mast should then be leveled until it has reached a right angle with the load. Raise the forks to one inch underneath the slot on the pallet and drive forward. Next lift forks four inches. Tilt back the load to secure it for moving. Drive the lift in reverse if the load obscures frontal vision. Check behind and honk in order to alert other personnel. Do not allow forks to drag on the ground.
