[@homesteadmaterialshandling5776]

I am an officer personnel and I approve this message! Just because you have the key, doesn't mean you should drive it!

[@Statimtek]

A mistake that was common on all these examples was the driver had his forks too high off of the ground, the forks should always be just high enough to clear imperfections in the floor, normally no higher than a cigarette pack. At the end, when the driver approached his lift then went to put the phone down, his forks were off the floor, a forklift should always be parked with the forks flat on the floor. Raised forks are a tripping hazard and can injury a pedestrian or product when the lift is in motion. Also the example of the driver driving outside, he should have stopped and honked his horn before entering the warehouse. Difference in light can make it difficult for the driver to see an obstacle or pedestrian inside the building, and sounding horn warns others that he is coming through the door.

[@johanfagerstromjarlenfors]

The official theory book where i live say you should have the forks about the height in the middle between feet and knee

[@Statimtek]

​@@johanfagerstromjarlenfors I guess that depends on what type of surface you are driving on . That may be applicable to construction sites where you are driving over dirt, but that is too high for a warehouse.

[@johanfagerstromjarlenfors]

@@Statimtek That is the height they say for warehouse

[@Statimtek]

@@johanfagerstromjarlenfors Let's look at the pros and cons of both sides of this question. 1.What are the pros of having the forks that high? None 2. What are the cons? If you run into someone you can seriously injure them. If you run into something you can cause serious damage to product, equipment, or other materials. If you go around a corner with a load that high off the floor you run the risk of tipping over. You and the load are unstable. (High center of gravity) 3.What are the pros of having the forks as low as possible? It is safer, you reduce the risk of tipping over or your load tipping over (lower center of gravity) If you run into someone or something the chance of doing damage is minimized greatly. 4. What are the cons of having your forks low? You tell me.

[@johanfagerstromjarlenfors]

@@Statimtek If you have the forks that low you will run in to a place on the leg with a lot of small bones and stuff that will make a really hard work for the doctor to fix compared to if you run in to them in the middle of a large bone. And i’m just telling what is the legal way of driving. If you don’t drive that way and someone catches you you will have to pay a lot of money

[@o0o-jd-o0o95]

i AM 45 years old and i have been driving forklifts off and on my whole life ( including telehandlers). so i get a job at a hardware store in a very small town in california and whenever i pick up a load ,which is usually stacked as high as the trucks doors allow, i drive backwards with the load to get to my destination. these idiots used to call me reckless for doing so. ( i say used to because i quit working there) they have almost no experience driving forklifts and these morons are trying to tell me how to drive a forklift. it was unbelievable😡 it made me so angry

[@ianfraser8662]

if you can see fully over the load ..i.e load is no higher than backrest then its fine to drive forward ..other than that its backwards 90% of the time . Also I am from Scotland and health and safety is obviously wayyy different in America !! Lol

[@TLDsProductions]

The funny part about this is you missed/ignored other mistakes when pointing out mistakes... such as your driver always had the forks too high and your driver didn't stop at intersections after the first time you said that was a common mistake... well you are right I guess, he made that mistake several times, haha... Consistency in a training video is important!!!

[@starkruzen]

The most common mistake that I see, and this video did not point out was, while driving in reverse, never place your hand around the rear up-right. You can pinch or crush your hand. 600/8:49

[@wayneheaney6271]

Most the counter balance forks iv been on have had a grab handle with a horn on the rear upright. Well up to about 2.5t, anything heavier it hasn't had it though.

[@chrisbuckley1785]

How could you pinch or crush your hand? The back of the lift extends much further then that part.

[@starkruzen]

@@chrisbuckley1785 it happens often enough that newer forklifts have installed hand holds on the in-ward side of the rear up rights. It’s just natural for an operator who is backing up to reach out and grab the upright with their hand. If you operate a forklift in areas such as construction sites there can be many protruding edges that can cause you to crush your hand if struck. As a retired Firefighter we responded to several forklifts accidents where this exact incident happened.

[@chrisbuckley1785]

@@starkruzen I did try and take notice today when I was on the lift. There's definitely a few times if I grab the back bar it'd be considered a body part out of the cab. Still think it'd take a specific kinda accident but do see how someone could get messed up personally I prefer when they have the hand there cause imo it's a natural reflex to grab there when driving backwards. Anyway just figured I let you know I took a look and see what your saying. ✌️✌️

Second mistake on "Mistake No.2", The driver entered the forklift from the right side across the hydraulic controls to his seat. Only enter the forklift in this case on the left hand side with 3 point contact; never across hydraulic levers.

[@davidbaker2626]

@3:17 he's backing with his hand wrapped around the upright. Never put your hand (or any other body part) outside the operator compartment unless you want your extremities crushed.

@@KhariConception Yale is definitely more comfortable to use and it is a high quality machine. where i used to work we would use the hell out of the forklifts. personally i spent 8-10 hours loading, unloading trucks, picking and sorting at a relatively fast pace. always liked Yale. we had 1 Toyota and that thing looked like it went through a war but it still worked like a charm!

[@2002southzone]

Also, it's safer to drive with your fork blades slightly above the deck. This driver drove with his blades too high off the floor.

[@PraveenSriram]

1) please sound your horn when going into busy areas of the warehouse 2) make sure seat 💺 belt is functional 3) keep all of your limbs inside the forklift for safety 4) don’t move at unsafe speeds. Identify where pedestrians are and check for spills and leaks in the area. 5) don’t maneuver when your view of the area is masked. 6) don’t maneuver over loads that are not secure!! 7) definitely don’t operate a forklift and a cell phone 📱 at the same tile like driving a car 🚙!

[@ElmerJFudd-oi9kj]

You are a fast learner sir.😊

[@SilentHillsDarkest]

not just busy areas, it is always good to sound your horn when you cannot see, like around a corner. all it takes is 1 person walking to the restroom or someone doing inventory. it is YOUR responsibility to yield and let them pass. you are not driving an emergency vehicle. also if there are other forklift operators you want to take extra caution to sound your horn but also listen for other horns. all safety is important but the MOST important thing that applies to everything is always be aware of your surroundings. if you follow that rule, you should never have an accident. it is also important to know your machine. with experience you will develop a "hi-lo sense" where you can feel how much room you have in tight areas.

[@fukkinjesus]

other mistakes in this video: steering with the right hand - this means the operator does not have control of the controls for the lift section of the forklift. steering should be done with the left hand and right hand resting on the lift controls ready for any required movement. using the steering wheel as though its a car - forklift steering wheels will have a hand grab on them to enable fast turns of the wheel for tight corners. steering like a car does not enable this, and can lead to loss of steering control in tight situations. in common mistake number 6, there is no reverse beeper to alert pedestrians, and the operator doesn't honk his horn to signify leaving an aisle. he also has his hand outside of the ROP cage when he braces himself against the rear pillar to reverse. no body parts should be outside the ROP cage during use. in common mistake number 5, the operator does not sound his horn when entering a factory door from outside. this is done to alert any pedestrians inside of an entering vehicle. in my experience the most common mistake made by forklift operators is the lack of scheduled pre-start inspections. this is done to high light any service concerns, ensure service schedules are adhered too, check safety equipment is present and working, and makes the operator aware of any broken or faulty items.

[@Robbie-mw5uu]

you dont need a hand on controls if you do not have a load

[@darryltognarelli6769]

Before getting on the forklift you should inspect for any kind of fluid leakage, when turning on the propane make sure there is no propane smell and if there is always replace the seals and when the forklift was going in reverse I didn’t hear the reverse beeper

The last warehouse I was working at, half of the forklift drivers had wireless earbuds in. You don't want to know how many near misses happened . Of course the drivers were complete assholes and would ignore you or cop an attitude if you said something. Management only really cared about meeting numbers and if they didn't see it, it didn't happen. I would love to learn forklift operation as a work skill but it's just too much risk not enough reward if this is the kind of bullshit I have to deal with on the job.

Second of all on one of the clips he had his forks adjusted unevenly and didn’t mention anything about checking or readjusting them so you don’t push pallets away when loading the forks if you haven’t had experience with euro/American/other pallets you won’t understand but they are all different and can fuck you up or any racking you are pulling from

[@rickjeske2187]

Another mistake was he did not move straight back to clear the pallet to the left. He actually shifted that pallet to the left. That's how pallets are broken and inventory gets damaged.

[@RiverMersey]

Firstly, ALL days should be fork-lift safety days! Secondly, I agree with the all of the safety issues already raised in the comments. Thirdly, as a UK fork-lift driver of over 25 year's experience, I would raise further safety issues... Here we have a gas-powered truck being extensively driven inside - while that would be acceptable for brief occasions in UK, for prolonged use an electric truck would be used inside. Forks, conveniently painted red in this video, are out of balance on the backrest towards the right of the truck. A truck often has a fork side-shift but that isn't intended to be used to compensate for unbalanced forks. Driver began using a truck that had it's keys left in the ignition. All drivers should have a key that they are responsible for and it prevents other unqualified workers from attempting to use the truck. Last example had the truck with keys in it, engine running, forks in a traveling position and yet the driver was out of the cab. Loads should be lifted as close to the truck as possible - not towards the tips of the forks. When the driver was reversing with a load while not looking in the direction of travel, the load should also have been repositioned to be touching the backrest - that is what the backrest is for! Presenter was explaining that loads should be secure while standing by racking that had a pallet containing oil drums. Lifting full oil drums that are on a simple pallet and lose causes them to lean outwards from each other. Oil drums should at least be shrink wrapped together or preferably loaded onto a specifically designed oil barrel pallet. Another comment raised this but I'd like to further clarify... Different companies have different requirements regarding workers having to wear hardhats, hi-viz vests, abrasion resistant gloves, etc. However, I would expect there would be a universal requirement to wear safety shoes. Being fair to the video, some safety shoes can now look like conventical shoes. However, I don't think I've ever seen "pointy-toed" safety shoes!

[@toyotamaterialhandlingsyst5881]

Hi Joe! This is a training center in one of our facilities in Atlanta, not an actual warehousing or distribution operation. The pallets stood up on their ends is by design. In our forklift operator courses we use them as a training aid. They simulate the actual racking itself. If the pallet is hit by a new operator during training, it falls and makes a loud noise which the trainer then uses as a teaching opportunity. We also have a "figure 8" course inside this facility where operators are trained on driving forward and reverse. We use pallets as training aids there as well. Very effective tool that we use as part of our course curriculum. But you are 100% right, this would be a violation in an operational environment.
