Perfect training steps 🌹

[@MW-cx3sb]

Just a tip, if you follow these guidelines you will be sacked for being too slow. I've seen it happen first hand with people who insisted doing it as per the training guidelines of using handbrake etc. You zoom in, hard turn, drop it in the fuckin rack level and back out while barely stopping. Thats the reality. If the rack is high then you're already raising your tynes to the right level as you approach and turn into it.

This is basically it. I work as an counterbalance driver in a food hamper production warehouse, and im constantly stacking and destacking baskets. I'm raising my forks as I approach the stack, before i've even started turning into it. I see the reach drivers doing this all the time too. Time is money.

Even though these are clearly ITSSAR standard training steps, I just hate the fact you're required to engage the handbreak at every stop. It's essentially a useless step as it's something you will realistically never do in an actual working environment. I've worked as a FLT driver for over 2 years now, and the only time I engage the handbreak (or footbreak in my case) is when I stop to get off the truck, as it's just far too time consuming to constantly apply the handbreak at every stop.

So you CAN forklift while pregnant.👍

I sort of understand the concept of applying the parking brake each time as a training procedure( instilling safety) however a rookie driver is going to find out very quickly that the extra steps are unnecessary AND impractical in the real world. Would it not be better to realistically train them how to operate a forklift in a way that they will actually use once they are out there in the working world? Training them to apply the parking brake for each step is like training someone to operate a car by applying the parking brake every time they stop at a stop light or stop sign, stopping to let a pedestrian cross the street, or when they parallel park. Could you imagine a driver applying the parking brake in every step of a multi move parallel parking procedure? That just does not happen. Train a PIT driver proper safety: Looking before each move, stopping at stop signs, using the safety belt, don't speed, set the parking brake when parking the forklift etc.

Lol

[@vlladellu]

best comment so far. Bravo sir

[@nathan789summerhill3]

In the real world you'd be sacked for not getting enough done if you were to apply handbrake everytime

[@dubskiiiN]

no one uses ebrake when ur going to stack something, boom that load up line it up backup and ur off. takes way to much time

[@lloydmillership9682]

You quite clearly have never even trained properly pal

[@dubskiiiN]

@@lloydmillership9682 sorry i work in a shop where we need to get shit done we don’t have time to dick off like old lady’s driving around

[@AndehX]

@@lloydmillership9682 I mean he's right though. You don't have time to engage the handbreak every 2 seconds when stacking and destacking. You'll eventually be sacked for being too slow.

[@ĞĦØŞTY_Y]

Slow as shit, you’ll get sacked for that haha you’ll load about 2 lorry’s a day at that speed.

[@KHMR1SNV]

he's clearly learning ya moron I'm sure you were rapid when you first started.
