Forklift Truck Training
To receive certification as a forklift driver, you need to undergo training on an industrial-powered forklift, or lift truck. The training program must be specific to the forklift type and attachments which you would be using on the job site. Training should also reflect the setting in which you would be working. Forklift safety must be a top priority for both the operator trainee and the trainer.
General Credentials
Prior to assuming any operator duties, all forklift operators should undergo training and certification. Basic credentials for using a forklift include being at least 18 years old and the physical ability to safely control and operate the unit.
Pedestrian Safety
The main concern of any forklift operator must be the safety of pedestrians. Pedestrians near the forklift are at risk of death or injury from getting hit by the machine or its attachments. Pedestrians must always have the right of way, and forklift operators must honk their horns when working near pedestrians or at crosswalks or intersections.
Weather Conditions
Forklift accidents often happen on loading docks. These places become dangerous if rain leaks in through open dock doors leading to an extremely slippery floor. Wet floor conditions can result in a hazard and operators should know possible hazards when working in loading dock areas.
Certification
Certification programs for forklift operators include both classroom instruction and practical training which could be tailored for the particular requirements of each work environment. Training must be undertaken on the forklift type and attachments which will be used by the trainee in the workplace.
Accidents
On average, there is roughly one hundred deaths attributed to forklift mishaps, while more than one hundred thousand are injured by forklifts. Most of these accidents can be avoided with attention to safety and correct operator training.
Doosan High Capacity Forklifts
Telescopic Forklifts
Telescopic forklift models are outfitted with a pronged lift on an arm which extends over the top of the truck providing versatility and great height. The arm, or crane, is known as a telescopic boom. The boom allows the person utilizing it to maintain a high degree of control while lifting the cargo to great heights. Regular forklifts aren't able to move the load towards and away from the cab of the forklift, while a telescopic forklift could allow that movement. The telescopic forklift is normally used in both construction and agriculture. It is recommended for applications where greater control and lift is needed.
A forklift carton clamp attachments are recommended in cases requiring high volume carton handling. The attachment has arm pads with four way reversible rubber linings that allow the operator to utilize uniform clamping force when lifting a load. It is available with a backrest that protects the cargo from damage.
A slip sheet attachment fits onto a slip sheet forklift. It is utilized for storing systems which don't use pallets. The attachment clamps onto the slip sheet and pulls it onto the forks on the forklift. This kind of system is handy for overseas shipments and intra-corporate deliveries.
A man basket is a lift platform designed specially to hoist staff. The basket attaches to the forks on the forklift, held in with a chain or strap that is to be secured directly to the forklift carriage. The platform has railings to protect the personnel from falling to the ground. Brackets on the platform are utilized for fastening the worker's safety harness.
