4.13 - Forklift Operations cont.

NOTE: When the operator is over 25 feet (7.6 meters) from or out of sight of the industrial truck

and forklift, the vehicle is unattended and (A) above should apply.

• When leaving a industrial truck or forklift unattended, either:

− The power will be shut off, brakes set, the mast brought to the vertical position, and forks left in the

down position. When left on an incline, block the wheels, or

− The power may remain on provided the brakes are set, the mast is brought to the vertical position,

forks are left in the down position, and the wheels will be blocked, front and rear.

• When the operator of an industrial truck and forklift is dismounted and within 25 feet (7.6 meters) of the

truck which remains in the operator's view, the load engaging means will be fully lowered, controls

placed in neutral, and the brakes set to prevent movement. Exception: Forks on fork-equipped industrial

truck and forklifts may be in the raised position for loading and unloading if the forks are raised no more

than 42 inches above the level where the operator and loaders are standing and the power is shut off,

controls placed in neutral and the brakes set. If on an incline, the wheels will be blocked.

• Vehicles will not be operated on floors, sidewalk doors, or platforms that will not safely support the

loaded vehicle.

• Prior to driving onto trucks, trailers and railroad cars, check their flooring for breaks and other structural

weaknesses.

• Cross railroad tracks diagonally, wherever possible. Parking closer than 8 ½ feet from the centerline of

railroad tracks is prohibited.

• Do not load trucks in excess of their rated capacity.

• Do not move a loaded vehicle until the load is safe and secure.

• Take extreme care when tilting loads. Tilting forward with the load engaging means elevated is

prohibited except when picking up a load. Elevated loads will not be tilted forward except when the load

is being deposited onto a storage rack or equivalent. When stacking or tiering, backward tilt will be

limited to that necessary to stabilize the load.

• Place the load-engaging device in such a manner that the load will be securely held or supported.

• Take special precautions in securing and handling of loads by trucks equipped with attachments, and

during the operation of these trucks after the loads have been removed.

Every employee who operates an industrial truck and forklift will be instructed in the following procedures

and in any other practices dictated by the work environment. Such information will be provided at the time

of initial employment. Copies of these instructions, printed in a language understood by the majority of the

employees, will be conspicuously posted at a place frequented by the drivers.

4.13.2 - Employee Operating Instructions

• Securely fasten your seat belt.

• Where possible, avoid operating the forklift/industrial truck near ditches, embankments, and holes.

• Reduce speed when turning, crossing slopes, and on rough, slick, or muddy surfaces.

• Stay off slopes too steep for safe operation.

• Watch where you are going, especially at row ends, on roads, and around trees.

• Do not permit others to ride.

• Operate the forklift/industrial truck smoothly-no jerky turns, starts, or stops.

• Hitch only to the drawbar and hitch points recommended by forklift manufacturers.

• When forklift is stopped, set brakes securely and use park lock if available.
