Picking up a load from the front

– Drive the truck slowly.

– Slowly insert the forks into the pallet

until the fork shank touches the load or

the pallet.

– Raise the load slightly and slowly

reverse the truck.

The ground surface must be in good

condition to ensure this works correctly.

Transporting a load

– Always transport a load outside the

narrow aisle as low as possible, allowing for ground clearance.

– Always transport loads with both forks. When transporting heavy loads always

ensure that both forks carry an equal weight.

– Gradually accelerate.

– Drive at constant speed.

– Always be prepared to brake. Only stop suddenly in dangerous situations.

– Reduce speed accordingly at narrow bends.

Depositing a load

– Drive the truck carefully up to the storage location

Before a load can be deposited, the driver must ensure that the storage location is

suitable for storing the load (size and capacity).

– Raise the load handler so that the load

can enter the storage location without

striking any objects.

– Carefully push the load into its storage

location.

– Carefully lower the load handler so

that the forks are clear of the load.

Avoid placing the load down suddenly to

avoid damaging the load and the load

handler.

– Carefully remove the load handler

from the load.

– Fully lower the load handler.
