Forklift operating procedures

 
(1) Checking the vehicle
 
(1) Before the operation of the forklift, the appearance should be checked, and fuel, lubricating oil and cooling water should be added.
 
(2) Check start, run and brake performance.
 
(3) Check whether the lighting and sound signals are complete and effective.
 
(4) Check whether the pressure and temperature are normal during the operation of the forklift.
 
(5) After the forklift is running, the external leakage should be checked and the seals replaced in time.
 
(6) In addition to checking the above contents, the battery forklift should also check the circuit of the battery forklift according to the relevant inspection contents of the battery car.
 
(2) Getting started
 
(1) Before starting, observe the surrounding area and confirm that there are no obstacles to the safety of driving, first whistle and start later.
 
(2) For vehicles with air brake, the brake barometer reading must reach the specified value before starting.
 
(3) When the forklift starts, the driver should first confirm that the cargo is stable and reliable.
 
(4) Start slowly and smoothly at the start.
 
(three) driving
 
(1) When driving, the height of the bottom end of the fork should be 300-400mm from the ground, and the gantry must be tilted backward.
 
(2) Do not raise the fork too high when driving. When entering or leaving the work site or on the road, pay attention to the obstacles in the sky. When the load is driving, if the fork rises too high, it will increase the overall center of gravity of the forklift and affect the stability of the forklift.
 
(3) After unloading, the fork should be lowered to the normal driving position before driving.
 
(4) When turning, if there are pedestrians or vehicles nearby, signals should be sent and high-speed sharp turns should be prohibited. High-speed sharp turns can cause the vehicle to lose its lateral stability and tip over.
 
(5) Internal combustion forklifts are strictly prohibited from stalling when going downhill.
 
(6) Non-special circumstances, it is forbidden to brake the load while driving.
 
(7) When the load travels more than 7 degrees and goes up and down with a speed higher than the first gear, the brake shall not be used in non-special circumstances.
 
(8) The forklift must comply with the internal traffic rules during operation and must maintain a certain safety distance from the preceding vehicles.
 
(9) When the forklift is running, the load must be at the lowest position that does not hinder the driving. The gantry should be properly tilted backwards. When stacking or loading, the load should not be increased. When carrying a large object, the object blocks the driver's line of sight, and the forklift should be turned down at this time.
 
(10) The forklift is controlled by the rear wheel, so you must always pay attention to the swing behind the car to avoid the sudden turn of the car that often occurs when the beginner drives.
 
(11) It is forbidden to turn on the slope and not to cross the ramp.
 
(12) When the forklift truck is going downhill, it should be reversed to prevent the cargo from falling down.
 
(4) Loading and unloading
 
(1) When loading the goods, adjust the distance between the two forks as needed to balance the load of the two forks. Do not deflect. One side of the item should be placed against the shelf. The weight of the fork should meet the requirements of the load center curve sign.
 
(2) The height of the load shall not obstruct the driver's sight.
 
(3) The brake must be braked with the brake during the loading and unloading of the item.
 
(4) When the forklift truck approaches or evacuates the goods, the speed of the vehicle should be slow and steady. Pay attention to the wheels and do not crush the objects, wooden mats, etc., so as to prevent the crushed objects from flying and injuring people.
 
(5) When picking up the goods with forks, the forks should be forked as far as possible into the load, and the fork tip should not touch other goods or objects. The minimum gantry back tilt should be used to stabilize the load so that the load does not slide backwards. When the load is lowered, the gantry can be tilted forward a small amount to facilitate loading and unloading the fork.
 
(6) It is forbidden to fork the cargo at high speed and collide with hard objects with the fork.
 
(7) When the forklift is in operation, it is forbidden to stand on the fork.
 
(8) Forklift forklift operation, it is forbidden to stand around the fork to prevent the goods from collapsing and injuring people.
 
(9) It is forbidden to use the forklift to lift personnel to work in high places, so as to avoid accidents in high places.
 
(10) It is not allowed to use the brake inertia to slide the item.
