Forklift Training Programs Penticton

Forklift Training Programs Penticton - Are you looking for work as a driver of a forklift? Our regulatory-compliant mobile equipment operator training offers instruction in types of forklifts, pre-shift inspection, fuel types and dealing with fuels, and safe use of a forklift. Practical, hands-on training helps participants in acquiring essential operational skills. Program content includes existing rules governing the utilization of lift trucks. Our proven forklift courses are designed to offer training on these kinds of trucks: narrow isle forklift, counterbalanced forklift and powered pallet truck.

How to Safely Handle Loads

Do not raise or lower the fork while the lift truck is moving. A load must not extend higher than the backrest because of the danger of the load sliding back toward the operator. Check for overhead obstacles and ensure there is enough clearance prior to lifting a load. Stay away from overhead power lines. When the load is raised straight up, tilt it slightly back.

When the load is raised the lift truck will be less stable. Make sure that no pedestrians cross below the elevated fork. The operator should never leave the lift truck when the load is lifted.

When handling pallets, forks should be high and level enough to go into the pallet and extend all the way beneath the load. The width of the forks must provide equal weight distribution.

Chock the wheels and set the brakes before unloading and loading the truck. The floors should be strong enough to support the weight of both the load and the forklift. Fixed jacks could be installed to support a semi-trailer that is not attached to a tractor. The entrance door height should clear the forklift height by at least 5 cm. Mark edges of docks, rail cars or ramps and avoid them.

If there is not proper ventilation into the forklift, do not stay in there for extended periods. The interior of the truck should have adequate lighting and be free of obstructions. Check the forklift cab's flooring for holes. The installation of material which are non-slip on the floor would help avoid slipping. Clear whichever obstacles from docks and dockplates and make certain surfaces are not oily or wet.

Never push or tow other vehicles with a lift truck.
