Important notes when using a new forklift

Important Notes When Using Forklifts
One, check the overall forklift when operating

– Before the forklift is operated, check its appearance and add fuel, lubricating oil and coolant.

– Check the total of starter, main engine and brake.

– Check that all lights, signal lights, horn system are full and working properly or not.

– Check if the pressure of the hydraulic components and the temperature are normal of the forklift.

– After the forklift is running, check the external leakage of all hydraulic connections for normal or not.

– In addition to checking the above contents, if it is an electric forklift, it should also be checked according to the relevant inspection contents of the electric forklift.

Two, start the operation

– Before running, look around and confirm that there are no obstacles preventing the safety of driving, then honk first before starting.

– For vehicles with air brakes, the brake gas pressure gauge must reach the specified value to start the engine.

– When the forklift starts to load, the driver needs to first confirm that the load is stable and reliable.

– Start running slowly, then speed up.

Three, the notes when driving a forklift

– When driving goods, the height between the bottom of the fork and the ground should be 300-400mm and the fork post should be tilted backwards.

– Do not lift the fork too high when driving. When driving in and out of the construction site, keep an eye out for obstacles in the sky. When the load is lifted, be aware that too high a load will increase the overall height of the forklift truck and affect the stability of the forklift.

– After unloading, should pay attention to lower the fork to the normal driving position before turning the steering wheel.

– When turning, if there are pedestrians or vehicles nearby, they must signal their horns and prohibit turning at high speed. Pay attention to sharp turns at high speed that will cause the vehicle to lose its lateral stability and overturn.

– For forklifts with internal combustion engines going downhill, never turn off the engine and slide.

– For non-special cases, do not brake suddenly while driving a loaded vehicle.

– When the load has an incline exceeding 7 degrees and the speed is higher than the first gear up and down, the brake system will not be used except in special cases.

– When the forklift is in operation, it must comply with the traffic regulations in the factory, must keep a certain safe distance from the vehicle in front.

– When the forklift is in motion, the load must be loaded at the lowest position that does not obstruct the driver’s view. The lifting post must be properly tilted back, except in the case of loading or unloading, and must not exceed the specified load. When transporting large objects, if the goods block the driver’s view, this time should be moved by reversing the forklift.

The forklift is driven by the rear wheel to steer, so you must always pay attention to the swaying behind the truck to avoid the sudden turn that often occurs when you first start driving.

– When the forklift is going downhill, the steering wheel must be reversed to prevent the goods from falling.

Four, the process of loading and unloading the forklift truck

– When the forklift uses a fork lift. Note that the distance between the two forks must be adjusted as necessary to balance the load of the two forks to avoid deflection. One side of the item should be close to the shelf and the fork weight should meet the load center curve requirements.

– The height of the load should not obscure the driver’s view.

– In the process of loading and unloading goods, the forklift must be braked.

– When the forklift approaches or moves goods, the speed must be slow and steady, be careful not to press the objects, wooden mats, … on the wheels to avoid rolling objects flying and injuring people.

– When picking up goods with a fork, the fork should be as deep as possible under the load, and the tip of the fork should not touch the cargo or other object. Minimal column inclination should be used to stabilize the load to prevent the load from sliding backwards. When lowering the load, the fork mast can be tilted forward a small amount to facilitate loading and retracting.

– It is forbidden to pick up goods at high speed and collide with hard objects with a fork.

– Personnel are prohibited from standing on the forks while operating the forklift.

– For forklift operations, personnel must not stand around the forks to avoid spilling goods and causing personal injury.

– Do not use forklifts to lift people participating in overhead activities, to avoid accidents from falling from a height.

– It is not allowed to use the brake to release the cargo by inertia force.

The above is the sharing of basic information for forklift users, hopefully useful for readers.

  • cac-loai-cang-nang Common Forklift Damage and Troubleshooting

    Common Forklift Damage and Troubleshooting 1. Fork damage: – Question: How to detect and handle fork damage? – Answer: To detect fork damage, you need to regularly check for bending, cracking, or deformation. If any abnormal signs are found, regular maintenance and replacement of the forks are necessary to ensure safety and work efficiency. 2. Uneven forks: – Question: What should we do when we notice uneven forks? – Answer: When the forks are not even, you need to check and adjust them to ensure proper alignment. This may require the intervention of an experienced technician or the use of specialized equipment for adjustment. 3. Hydraulic oil leakage: – Question: How does hydraulic oil leakage affect the forklift and what is the solution? – Answer: Hydraulic oil leakage can affect the operation of the forklift and workplace safety. The solution is to check hydraulic system connections, hoses, cylinders, and other components to find the cause of the leakage. Then proceed with repairing or replacing damaged components. 4. Loss of pressure: – Question: What causes loss of pressure in a forklift and how to troubleshoot it? – Answer: Loss of pressure can be caused by oil leakage, air in the system, or worn components. To fix this issue, you need to check the entire system from pump, valves to cylinders to determine the problem and repair or replace components as needed. 5. Stuck or damaged mechanical parts: – Question: How should we handle stuck or damaged mechanical parts in a forklift? – Answer: For issues related to mechanical parts such as wheels or rotating shafts, maintaining regular maintenance is crucial to prevent machine deterioration. If a jammed or damaged occurs, detailed inspection is needed to determine the cause followed by repair or replacement of components as required. 6. Broken cables or shaking: – Question: What should be done when forklift cables are broken or shaking? – Answer: If cables are broken or shaking, stop using the forklift immediately and conduct an inspection. Replace damaged cables with new ones according to manufacturer specifications by an experienced technician. 7. Loss of control or electrical system failure: – Question: When encountering problems with electrical systems, how do we restore control of a forklift? – Answer: Check electrical components such as fuses, relays, switches, and control circuits. Repair or replace faulty components while always following safety procedures when working with electrical systems. 8. Uneven shaking: – Question: How does uneven shaking during lifting affect operations and how can it be fixed? – Answer: Uneven shaking not only makes it difficult to control the forklift but can also damage goods and operators. Check forks, wheels, suspension components to determine causes of shaking then proceed with necessary repairs or adjustments. 9. Malfunctioning safety sensors: – Question: Why is maintaining safety sensors important and what should be done when they malfunction? – Answer: Safety sensors help prevent accidents and unwanted incidents. When a sensor malfunctions, use diagnostic equipment to identify issues then proceed with repairs or replacements. 10. Cooling system failure: – Question: What are consequences of cooling system failure and how can it be fixed? – Answer: Ineffective cooling can lead to overheating which affects performance and damages components. Check fans, radiators, hoses, coolant fluid flow blockages or leaks. 11.Brake system failure Question : When brake system fails what needs 2 b done Answer : First stop using d lift n inspect d brake sys . Check d master cylinder , brake fluid n connections 2 find d cause . If any signs f wear r damage r found , immediately replace those parts . Regular maintenance s important 2 prevent brake sys issues . 12.Poor mechanical response Question : How 2 fix poor mechanical response f d lift not moving smoothly r getting stuck ?
