Forklift Training Programs Alberta

Forklift Training Programs Alberta - Are you looking for work as a driver of a forklift? Our regulatory-compliant mobile equipment operator training offers instruction in types of lift trucks, pre-shift inspection, fuel types and handling of fuels, and safe operation of a forklift. Hands-on, practical training assists participants in obtaining essential operational skills. Course content includes current rules governing the use of forklifts. Our proven forklift programs are designed to provide training on these types of trucks: narrow isle forklift, counterbalanced forklift and powered pallet truck.

How to Handle Loads Safely

Do not raise or lower the fork while the lift truck is traveling. A load must not extend over the backrest due to the possibility of the load sliding back in the direction of the operator. Check for overhead obstacles and ensure there is plenty of clearance before raising a load. Stay away from overhead power lines. When the load is raised straight up, tilt it slightly back.

When the load is raised the lift truck would be less stable. Make sure that no pedestrians cross beneath the elevated fork. The operator should never leave the forklift while the load is lifted.

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

Before loading or unloading the truck, chock the wheels and set the brakes. Floors need to be strong enough to support the weight of the load and the forklift combined. Fixed jacks can be installed in order to support a semi-trailer which is not coupled to a tractor. The height of the entrance door must clear the forklift height by at least 5 cm. Mark edges of docks, rail cars or ramps and avoid them.

Do not stay inside a lift truck for a long time without correct ventilation. The inside of the truck must be properly lighted and free of trash, loose objects and obstructions. Inspect for holes in the floor. The installation of material that are non-slip on the floor will help avoid slipping. Clear whatever obstacles from docks and dockplates and ensure surfaces are not oily or wet.

Never push or tow other vehicles making use of a forklift.
