Safety Rules

Only properly trained and authorized personnel
should operate forklift trucks. Wear a hard hat and
safety shoes when operating a lift truck. Do not
wear loose clothing.
Inspect and check the condition of your forklift truck
using the operator's check list before starting work.
Immediately report to your supervisor any obvious
defects or required repairs.
Do not operate your truck in unauthorized areas.
Know your forklift truck and think safety.
Do not compromise safety.

operator's seat.
Keep arms, legs and head inside the confines of
the operator's area. Keep hands and feet out of the
mast assembly.
Do not start, stop, turn or change direction
suddenly or at high speed. Sudden movement can
cause the lift truck to tip over. Slow the speed of
your truck and use the horn near corners, exits,
entrances, and near people.
Never operate a lift truck with wet hands or shoes.
Never hold any controls with grease on your hands.
Your hands or feet will slide off of the controls and
cause an accident.
