3 Protect Yourself

WEAR YOUR OPERATOR HARNESS

Falls from a platform can cause serious injury or even death.

• Use your operator harness and tether when elevated and working with an open side gate or with the narrow

front rail option. Read the warnings on the harness.

• Check your harness and tether. Replace them if they have ever been used to stop a fall, or if damaged or worn.

LOOK WHERE YOU'RE DRIVING

• If you run into things you can be injured. You could fall from the truck or the load could shift and hit you.

Make certain there is nothing in your path, on the floor

or sticking out of the racks.

• Always be alert to the area around you and watch where you are driving. You could be pinned or crushed by objects intruding or poking into the operator area.

DRIVE CAREFULLY

• Keep your hands on the controls and feet on the pedals.

Keep your entire body in the operator area. A foot or

hand caught between the truck and a fixed object will be crushed or even cut off.

• Keep your truck under control at all times. Drive at a speed that allows you to stop safely. Be even more careful on slippery or uneven surfaces. Do not drive over objects on the floor.

CHECK YOUR LOADS

• Before you pivot a load, make certain it won't intrude or poke into the operator area. Do not handle long, wide or unstable loads. Check clearances before using traverse.

Know the Hazards

AVOID FALLS AND TIPOVERS

Tipovers are very serious accidents, you can be crushed or even killed. The best way to prevent injury is to know where you are at all times and follow the rules of safe truck operation. There is no sure way to avoid injury during a tipover or a drop from a dock.

• Be careful if driving around docks or ramps. Stay away from the edge. Watch where you're going.

• When traveling out of the aisle, keep the forks or load close to the ground. Watch for overhead obstructions.

Perform all truck movements smoothly and at a speed

that will give you time to react in an emergency.

• Turret Stockpickers should not be used on ramps or grades. If you must drive on a grade, travel slowly and don't turn. If carrying a load, point the forks upgrade.

If unloaded, point the forks downgrade.

• An unloaded truck can also tip over. Be just as careful using an unloaded truck as you are using a loaded one.

USE YOUR TRUCK SAFELY

• Keep hands and feet away from all moving parts such as the load handler, masts or wheels. Don't sit or stand on the side gates.

• Never stand on or under the forks, or allow anyone else to stand on or under them. Never allow passengers on the truck. There is no safe place for them.

• Before you leave your truck:

• Come to a complete stop.

• Lower the forks to the floor.

• Shut the truck off with the key or power disconnect.

Your Turret Stockpicker

TURRET STOCKPICKERS

Your turret truck is designed to transport, stack and retrieve loads.

YOUR TURRET TRUCK IS NOT AN AUTOMOBILE

With a load it may weigh more than 6 automobiles.

• You don't steer the same.

• You don't brake the same.

• You don't accelerate the same.

HOW TO DRIVE YOUR TRUCK

Put the side gates down. Keep your hands and feet inside the operator compartment and on the controls. Look in the direction you're going.

WHEN TO USE THE HARNESS AND TETHER

Wear your harness and attach the tether whenever the operator compartment is elevated and you have a side gate open. (The harness may be either a belt or a body harness, depending on company and state requirements.)

Wear your harness and tether at all times if your truck has a narrow front rail option.

WHAT IS YOUR TRUCK CAPACITY?

Capacity is the load (including pallet or container) that can be lifted to a given height at a given load center. See the capacity plate on your truck. Make certain you use the correct units of measure.

WHAT IS LOAD CENTER?

Load center is the distance from the faces of the forks to the center of an evenly distributed load.

LOADS MUST BE CENTERED & EVENLY DISTRIBUTED

Your truck could tip over, in any direction, if a load is placed or shifted to the front, back or side of a pallet or container.

Know the Hazards

KNOW YOUR LOAD

Do not exceed the capacity shown on your truck's capacity plate. Be careful when handling long, high or wide loads. Do not handle unstable loads.

EXCEEDING TRUCK CAPACITY CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT

Know the capacity of your truck as shown on your capacity plate. Make certain you use the correct units of measure. Pay attention to:

• Weight of load

• Load center

• Lift height

HYDRAULIC OPERATIONS CAN AFFECT STABILITY

Be careful when using operations such as traverse, extend or pivot. Remember that anytime the forks move, the load moves also. This can affect stability. Perform all operations smoothly.

CENTER THE LOAD

Your truck could tip over if a load is placed or shifted to the front, back or side of a pallet or container. Make sure your load is evenly distributed and centered over the forks.
