Walk-Around Inspection
Make a thorough walk-around inspection before
mounting the lift truck or starting the engine. Look
for such items as loose bolts, debris buildup, oil or
coolant leaks. Check condition of tires, mast, car-
riage, forks or attachments. Have repairs made as
needed and all debris removed.
Before starting the gas engine, push the accelera-
tor pedal all the way down once and then slowly it
to set the automatic choke.
1. Inspect the operator's compartment for loose
items and cleanliness.
2. Inspect the instrument panel for broken or dam-
aged indicator lights or gauges.
3. Test the horn and other safety devices for proper
operation.
4. Inspect the mast and lift chains for wear, broken
links, pins and loose rollers.
5. Inspect the carriage, forks or attachments for
wear, damage and loose or missing bolts.
6. Inspect the tires and wheels for cuts, gouges, for-
eign objects, inflation pressure and loose or missing
bolts.
7. Inspect the overhead guard for damage and
loose or missing mounting bolts.
8. Inspect the hydraulic system for leaks, worm
hoses or damaged lines.
9. Look for transmission and drive axle leaks on the
lift truck and on the ground.
