4 Industrial Truck Operation
Only use lanes and routes specifically designated for truck traffic. Unauthorised third
parties must stay away from work areas. Loads must only be stored in places
specially designated for this purpose.
The truck must only be operated in work areas with sufficient lighting to avoid danger
to personnel and materials. Additional equipment is necessary to operate the truck in
areas of insufficient lighting.
DANGER!
Do not exceed the permissible surface and point loading on the travel lanes.
At blind spots get a second person to assist.
The driver must ensure that the loading dock /dock leveller cannot be removed or
come loose during loading/unloading.
The operator must adapt the travel speed to local conditions. The truck must be
pushed/pulled at slow speed when negotiating bends or narrow passageways, when
passing through swing doors and at blind spots. The operator must always observe
an adequate braking distance between the forklift truck and the vehicle in front and
must be in control of the truck at all times. Abrupt stopping (except in emergencies),
rapid U turns and overtaking at dangerous or blind spots are not permitted. Do not
lean out or reach beyond the working and operating area.
Visibility when pulling/pushing
The operator must look in the direction of travel and must always have a clear view
of the route ahead. If the truck is carrying loads that affect visibility, the truck must be
pulled against the load direction. If this is not possible, a second person must walk
alongside the truck as a lookout to observe the travel route while maintaining eye
contact with the operator. Move the truck only at walking pace and with particular
care. Stop the truck as soon as you lose eye contact.
11.19 en-GB
53
Negotiating slopes and inclines
WARNING!
Do not negotiate slopes or inclines.
Lifts may only be negotiated if they have sufficient capacity, are suitable for driving
on and authorised for truck traffic by the owner. The driver must satisfy himself of the
above before entering these areas. The truck must be pushed into lifts with the load
in front and must take up a position which does not allow it to come into contact with
the walls of the lift shaft. Persons riding in the lift with the forklift truck must only
enter the lift after the truck has come to a rest and must leave the lift before the
truck.
