Markham Forklift Training Schools - Have An Efficient And Safe Work Place With Our Forklift Training Schools

Are you looking for a job as a forklift driver? Our regulatory-compliant mobile equipment operator training provides instruction in types of lift trucks, pre-shift check, fuel kinds and handling of fuels, and safe operation of a lift truck. Practical, hands-on training assists participants in acquiring essential operational skills. Program content covers current rules governing the utilization of forklifts. Our proven forklift courses are meant to offer training on these types of trucks: counterbalanced forklift, powered pallet trucks and narrow isle forklift.

Do not raise or lower the fork when the lift truck is traveling. A load should not extend over the backrest due to the possibility of the load sliding back toward the operator. Check for overhead obstacles and ensure there is adequate clearance prior to lifting a load. Stay away from overhead power lines. Once the load is raised straight up, tilt it slightly back.

While the load is lifted the forklift will be less stable. Make certain that no pedestrians cross under the elevated fork. The operator should never leave the lift truck when the load is lifted.

While handling pallets, forks should be level and high enough to go into the pallet and extend all the way underneath the load. The fork's width should provide even distribution of weight.

Set the brakes and chock the wheels before loading and unloading the truck. The floors must be strong enough to support the combined weight of the load and the forklift. Fixed jacks could be installed to support a semi-trailer that is not coupled to a tractor. The height of the entrance door should clear the height of the forklift by at least 5 cm. Edges of docks, rail cars and ramps must be marked and avoid them.
