Doosan Warehouse Forklifts
Forklift Truck Training Course
In order to receive certification as a forklift driver, you should undergo training on an industrial-powered forklift, or lift truck. The training must be specific to the forklift type and attachments that you would be using on the job site. Training must also reflect the setting in which you would be working. Forklift safety must be a top priority for both the operator trainee and the trainer.
General Credentials
Prior to assuming any operator duties, all forklift operators should undergo both training and certification. Basic credentials for driving a forklift include being at least 18 years old and the physical capacity to operate and control the unit safely.
Pedestrian Safety
The safety of pedestrians should be a main concern of any forklift driver. Pedestrians near the forklift are at risk of injury or death from getting hit by the machinery or its attachments. Pedestrians always have the right of way, and forklift operators should honk their horns when working at crosswalks or intersections or near pedestrians.
Weather Conditions
A lot of mishaps involving forklifts take place at loading docks. These areas become hazardous if rain leaks in through open dock doors leading to a very slippery floor. Wet floor conditions could lead to a danger and operators must know potential dangers when working in loading dock areas.
Certification
Certification programs for forklift operators consist of both practical training and classroom instruction which can be tailored for the particular needs of each work environment. Training should be undertaken on the forklift type and attachments which would be used by the trainee in the workplace.
Accidents
On average, there is roughly 100 deaths attributed to forklift mishaps, while over 100,000 are injured by forklifts. Most of these accidents can be avoided with proper operator training and attention to safety.
Doosan High Capacity Forklifts
Telescopic Forklifts
Telescopic forklifts offer height and versatility. These models are equipped with a pronged lift on an arm which extends over the top of the truck. The arm, or crane, is known as a telescopic boom. The boom allows the operator to maintain a high degree of control while raising the cargo to great heights. Standard forklifts aren't able to move the load towards and away from the cab of the forklift, while a telescopic forklift can allow that movement. The telescopic forklift is normally used in agriculture and construction. It is recommended for applications where greater control and lift is needed.
A forklift carton clamp attachments are recommended in situations requiring high volume carton handling. The attachment has arm pads with four way reversible rubber linings that allow the operator to use uniform clamping force when picking up a cargo. It comes with a backrest which protects the cargo from damage.
A sleep sheet forklift will often utilize a slip sheet attachment for storing systems which don't utilize pallets. The attachment clamps onto the slip sheet and pulls it onto the forklift forks. This kind of system is useful for intra-corporate deliveries and for overseas shipments.
A man basket is a lift platform designed specifically to raise workers. The basket attaches to the forks on the forklift, held in with a chain or strap which is to be secured directly to the forklift carriage. The platform has railings to protect the employees from falling to the ground. Brackets on the platform are utilized for fastening the safety harness of the worker.
