Doosan Warehouse Forklifts
Forklift Truck Training
In order to receive certification as a forklift driver, you must undergo training on an industrial-powered forklift, or lift truck. The training program should be specific to the forklift type and attachments that you would be using on the job site. Training should also reflect the environment wherein you will be working. Forklift safety should be a main concern for both the trainer and the operator trainee.
General Credentials
Prior to assuming any operator duties, all forklift drivers should undergo training and certification. Basic credentials for using a forklift include being at least 18 years old and the physical ability to safely control and operate the unit.
Pedestrian Safety
The top concern of any forklift driver must be the safety of pedestrians. Pedestrians near the forklift are at risk of death or injury from getting hit by the machinery or its attachments. Pedestrians always have the right of way, and forklift drivers should honk their horns when working near pedestrians or at crosswalks or intersections.
Weather Conditions
Forklift accidents frequently occur on loading docks. These areas become dangerous if rain leaks in through open dock doors making the floor extremely slippery. Wet floor conditions could lead to a hazard and operators must be aware of potential hazards when working in loading dock areas.
Certification
Certification courses for forklift operators include both practical training and classroom instruction that can be tailored for the specific requirements of each work environment. Training should be completed on the type of forklift and attachments that will be used by the trainee in the workplace.
Accidents
Each year roughly one hundred individuals die in forklift accidents. There are one hundred thousand forklift injuries reported every year. Most of these accidents are avoidable with attention to safety and correct operator training.
Doosan High Capacity Forklifts
Telescopic Forklifts
Telescopic forklifts provide height and versatility. These models are equipped with a pronged lift on an arm that extends over the top of the truck. The arm, or crane, is called a telescopic boom. The boom enables the person utilizing it to lift the cargo to great heights while maintaining a high degree of control. Regular forklifts could not move the load towards and away from the cab of the forklift, while a telescopic forklift can allow that movement. The telescopic forklift is commonly used in both agriculture and construction. It is recommended for applications where greater control and lift is necessary.
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 which allow the operator to utilize uniform clamping force when picking up a cargo. It is available with a backrest which protects the loads from damage.
A slip sheet attachment fits onto a slip sheet forklift. It is utilized for storing systems which don't use pallets. The attachment clamps onto the slip sheet and pulls it onto the forks on the forklift. This kind of system is useful for overseas shipments and intra-corporate deliveries.
A man basket is a lift platform meant specifically to lift employees. The basket attaches to the forklift forks, 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 worker's safety harness.
