Qualified Operators - UniCarriers FG20 Series Operation & Maintenance Manual

TRAIN OPERATOR TO STACK SAFELY
■
Unstacking
"Stacking" means piling up a palleted load or
material directly on top of each other, without using
racks or shelves to separate them. If stacking work
is not done properly, the loads may slip or fall,
endangering the operator as well as fellow workers
in the area.
Safety classes should be held to train all operators
in the proper method of stacking and unstacking
loads.
(Your UniCarriers dealer can provide information
about safety stacking training.)

HOME!
Do not let people take chances. An operator who is
overworked or fatigued, an operator who is feeling
unwell, or an operator who is intoxicated must not
be allowed in the driver's seat.
