SECTION II QUIZ
A forklift truck steers with its rear wheels, not its front wheels like your car.
When you are planning to make a turn while traveling forward, you should steer your forklift to the opposite side of the road or isle...in the direction you are going to turn.
When traveling backward, the rear wheels should pass the comer and the front wheels should reach the corner before you start turning the steering wheel to make a turn.
A forklift truck operator must always watch the rear swing of the truck as well as the front swing of the load.
A forklift truck is much harder to steer when the forks are loaded.
A forklift truck operator should always travel with the forks four to six inches above the ground.
An operator should always inspect a load before he attempts to make a lift.
When picking up a load with a forklift truck, always approach the load squarely.
The forks should be spaced as widely as possible according to the load width and equally spaced form the sides of the carrigae.
At times, it might become necessary to make a lift with only one fork.
*
At times, it might also become necessary to "pick up short", that is pick up a load with only part of your forks.
An operator should never put his head, hands or feet out of the truck cage.
Only the small Hyster forklift should ever be carried in the plant's elevators.
It is better to drive forward up a ramp when your truck is empty.
You should drive forward up a ramp and backwards down a ramp when your forks are loaded.
SECTION II QUIZ
^ 16. Always cross railroad tracks at a 45 degree angle.
17. Passengers should never be carried on a forklift truck as it is designed for only one person...the operator. Before depositing a load, the operator should take the time to inspect the place where he is going to unload.
r 19. You should never use full back tilt when high stacking. The safest condition is when the top of the mast is only a foot to 18 inches back from vertical. If you have to leave the fork truck unattended for even a short time, you should lower the forks and turn off the engine.

3. In addition to the dolly wheels, special jacks must be placed under the front of a trailer, when the tractor is not attached, before loading begins.
4. Trailer floors should be checked for damage before loading begins. 5. The proper way to load a trailer is to load all of one side then all
of the other side.
P
6. If double stacking is required when loading a trailer, it should be done in the front and back so the extra weight will be on the axles.
7. An employee should never be lifted with a forklift truck unless a caged worklift is used.
8. When using a worklift, you must be sure that the safety pin is placed through the worklift moynt and the forklift forks to prevent the worklift from sliding off the forks.
9. It is O.K. for an employee to ride to a work site if he is riding in a worklift.
