Try to remain within the operator cab.
·
Grasp the steering wheel firmly
Push feet firmly against the floor plate of the cab.
·
Try to keep as far away from the point of impact as possible. Take care when loading and unloading

Never stop carrying out forklift maintenance. Specialised personnel should be assigned to this job,
equipped with the
necessary tools and appropriate instructions. Only authorized personnel shouldcarry out maintenance and repair
work.
-
Check the best route to reach the working area.
-
It is
prohibited to transit or remain under suspended weights or machine parts which are only
supported by
hydraulic
pistons,
chains or
cables.
-
Maintain the handles and footholds used to enter and operate the machine clean and free of
oil
and
grease to
avoid slipping or falling.
-

machine.
-
It is prohibited to enter or exit the machine during operation.

prohibited to stop or undertake any kind of intervention
in
the area between the wheels of the
machine
while
the
engine
is
running.
The

-
Some
operations are easier to carry out with the horizontal
arm
lifted.
Before doing so, precautions must be taken to prevent the arm from accidentally lowering using he
devices
designed for this purpose for each specific forklift model.
-
Maintenance or repairs
may
not
be
carried out without the appropriate lighting.
-
Direct the spot light beams to ensure that personnel are not blinded.
-
Before handling cables or electric devices, check that connections are correct and that the devicesare
operational.

Before carrying out any electrical welding
on
the forklift, disconnect the battery to avoid possible
damage
to
electric
and
electronic equipment.

It is prohibited to lubricate, clean or adjust mechanical
components
while moving.
-
Operations which require the use of specific tools may not be carried out without these tools.
-
Do not use tools in an unsatisfactory condition or in an improper manner (e.g. use a clip instead of afixed clamp).
-
Regular checks should also be carried out on
all
those elements whose excessive wear or aging could
lead to a
risk of accident, for example: hydraulic pipes, brake lining, tyre tread, etc.
-
Should operator protection suffer an impact that induces a crack or permanent deformity, as this
is
a safety
element,
it
must be replaced with a new item.
-
All modifications which affect the capacity and safety of the forklift must be authorized by the manu-
facturer or by an
official industrial actor, with an update to instruction manuals and plates if necessary.
