For entering tricky pallets, try entering at an angle and then straighting out. If you are sticking to a pallet and trying to get out, try raising a touch and moving back, then lower once you've gotten loose.
the training for my job is just "this is what each button does, dont hit anything" which is also what our forklift training is. no wonder why our air vents are dented and we have garage door bottom halves that got replaced
Same. I tend to use it more too. But for really heavy loads it's extremely helpful. Plus some warehouse jobs are hiring 20/hr right now and require that you can use it frequently
Try using a regular pallet jack with a heavy skit, it's almost impossible plus the electric jack can push in and fit in weird angle areas where a normal jack cant.
I worked at a place that were real anal about taking the key out. Then one day a big accident happened and all the Polish lads got in trouble, it turned out one guy took a key home and got loads of spares cut and all the Polish boys had their own key 😅 (what do you expect when you set ridiculous targets but demand you sign out/return the key every time you need to move a pallet 20 fucking yards)
@@Patrick19833 these are forklifts, anything with forks that can lift is, by defenition, a forklift. you do indeed need a licence to operate any type of powered fork lift
Yes, you are right Luck practice makes perfect as the saying goes, I use the Lindi ride-on T20 nice for order picking, loading/offloading fleet trucks, and trailers, my personal motto: Be Brilliant at the basics. enjoy your shift and stay safe, chow.
That downhill part doesn’t seem right, that’s the opposite of a forklift where you keep the load uphill no matter which direction you go. With the load downhill it’s almost guaranteed to slip off the forks.
I don't know why he used the phrase "prevent it slipping off" but it's the right way, basically you always want to be stood uphill from the load on a PPT. Anything goes wrong the whole thing is going down and you don't wanna be stood in the way
