[@adurobaquophy4063]

Hi, thanks a lot for your video, I had training prior to watching your video, and a night before the final test I watched your video. it gave me so much confidence, technics and I must say you basically did the job for me with your step by step procedure. I passed successfully. I recommend everyone to watch this tutorial beofre an attempt to operate a forklift.

[@ForkliftProTips]

Aduroba Quophy thank you for your positive feedback I'm glad you passed the test

A full check is only done early in the morning, you cross boxes on a card, hes explaining so it goes slower, otherwise a real check is much quicker, write your name and then on the rest of the shifts you just check the breaks, steering and lifting, something you can do while on the move.

Thanks

[@healthycitizen1926]

I was kind of feeling slightly not alot just slightly insecure about wanting to go into the forklift driving field because all my friends drive semi trucks . But your confidence and showing the forklift and its functions in the beginning of the video makes me feel alot better . And another cool thing is it’s engine and if any person knows a man love engines and any form of complex engineering awesome video snd i cant wait to start🙏💎

[@zareaper002]

Same bro all my friends drive semis where I work and I was the only one doing the forklift but i ended up learning both now with patience and courage you can achieve anything

[@aligator9552]

I have 24 solid years of experience, and although I am safety conscious, neither me or 99 percent of other people go through such a through inspection. Usually, it's Ok, the forks are attached, there's no puddle of hydraulic fluid on the ground and away you go. I promise you, virtually everyone who have a checklist to fill out with a forklift they drive everyday goes check, check, check etc. This is a very good instructional video and he did cover all safety aspects you need to watch out for.

[@Brianyasterzemski]

I have been watching every video I can find. Doing every practice test I can find. Now looking into operation, working the lift controls, pre inspection examples and I am now comfortable putting out money to get my certification. Thank you EVERYONE for the education. Now I am looking into some simulated forklift experience and I'll be ready to go.

[@Mactelo]

Could you please tell me where did you find the practice test?

[@dndrecords6103]

Thanks I got my test today at my new job ! 🙌 perfect training 👌 I'm prepped

[@AndehX]

Interesting to see the different rules and guides for fork lifts in different countries. Over here in the UK we're instructed to never apply any tilt while the pallet is still in the racking. That would be an instant fail. Tilt can only be applied once the pallet is at ground level. I have my test tomorrow, so im going through different videos to brush up on my revision

[@kp-legacy-5477]

It's state based in Australia You can only tilt when at ground level a metre away in Australia aswell

[@alexroper6255]

i was told low hight full back tilt when moving

[@AndehX]

@@alexroper6255 That's how it is in the UK too. Full back tilt whenever the truck is in motion.

[@ayayron9243]

Whoo-Hoo! i am now a certified forklift operator thank you so much i really gained confidence and knowledge from this Video!!!!!! Edit: I am now no longer a certified forklift operator, i was involved in a workplace accident where i didnt complete a pre start check and the chain failed. there was a spotter under me and he got crushed by a 1.5 tonne pallet R.I.P Davo never forgotten now im homeless but i can always re apply at another forkilft operating centre!!!!

I once witnessed a coworker flinging shit at his forklift. He was changing the propane tank and the connection busted and started leaking a few seconds after turning the valve on. He was trying to shut the valve off while doing his best not to freeze his hand. He ran out of ammunition so we just watched the propane escape while laughing our ass off.

Thanks very much for the lecture It's very helpful sir

[@bifutake]

No one noticed the far left pedal that looks like a clutch but is never used in this video, as far as I could see? I wonder what it's for. EDIT: Ok, I just found the answer on another video. They call it an "inching brake". It disengages the transmission so you can use the gas pedal to raise/lower the lift faster without having to switch the gear to neutral. So, almost like a clutch because they're both used to disengage transmission but on a normal car you also use it to change between gears. On a forklift I guess you only have forward, reverse and neutral so there's no need for a proper manual clutch. I'm also assuming it has an automatic gear shifting system to prevent excessive wear on the transmission.

Wrong. Its the operators responsibility to ensure it's safe to use. If not you follow out a MRF. Maintenance Request Form
