When I train the greenies on PE, I stress several aspects to them. 1- make sure your as far as possible underneath the load. 2 - before moving, lean the boom back as far as possible. 3 - don't jerk the controls and imagine your controlling a robot arm smoothly moving. 4 - don't aim with tilt but level. 5 - use two feet even when not on manual forklift, as even the automatic function like a clutch. 6 - obsolete now on newer forklifts, leave forklift running if within eyesight and a lifted load is on forks in order to reduce seal failure gravity falls. 7 - steer with the front tires, not the back ones that steer (makes sense to operators). 8 - understand and accommodate the load bearing on each different stage of the boom. Just because a forklift is rated for a certain amount of weight, doesn't mean it can support that weight through 2,3,4 stages on the boom. Maintenance, momentum, speed, and friction all effect the lifting capacity and factor into the safe operation of the equiptment.
Wow, tottaly speechless, he should of just got his neighbour to operate the forklift, and as for the guy acting counterweight, you sir deserve to be flattend like a pancake
They already have one. what they need is a forklift operator an operator would know the safety rules with operating a forklift and that his forklift would not be able to lift that load.
All the comments given are correct..in addition to the bad mechanical condition of the truck and the heavy loads which exceed the capacity of the forklift truck.
Never try to turn with a big load in the air. Back straight up and lower to the ground then turn. He made this hard on himself. The forklift is too small but s good operator could've done a much safer job.
if there was a list of 7 deadly forklift sins what you mentioned would certainly make the list... also the uneven, loose gravel ground wasn't much help either
First, check the load and confirm if your forklift can lift it. Ok so let's say you can't confirm the weight the fact that the back wheels are lifting off the ground means the load is too heavy. Turning with your load in the air is another no no. Guy climbing on the back of the FL is another no no.
Those loads are a pain in the arse. I had a few yrs under my belt before i started unloading similar loads and it takes a few loads to get the knack of.
lmfao you had me cracking up with this one, I drive a forklift in a warehouse for a living, everything that these guys did goes against operating one of these things omg
Main problem is that forklift was not designed for loads that heavy. Worked in a lumber yard for 7 years operating forklift, anybody who would have attempted that would have been fired IMMEDIATELY. Had the pleasure of watching a co worker attempt to bring 20 ft wide load of lumber through a 16ft wide aisle by driving with the full bunk 30ft in the air over the racking. He tapped the brakes slightly to slow down, the entire mast twisted, swung the load, plummeted from the sky, and took out the entire aisle of cantilever racking. Needless to say he didn't come back.
Heavy loads that the forklift cannot lift or have difficulty in lifting become dangerous as soon as it is loaded on its feet. The forklift operator should use the hydraulic arms calmly and touch sensitively. The truck driver has put himself in great danger here. Occupational safety is not provided in most places at world standards. If you notice, 7:21 does not fully enter the pallet. And the distance remains. Life is so short that you can't understand how it went.
Absolute idiot... I make lifts everyday that take me out of chart and more experienced operators I work with make picks more than id be comfortable with. But you put an idiot like that in a forklift without a load and he is going to kill some one. Holding the throttle wide open like and idiot...
With an operator and not a driver this is a one-person job. Nice to remove the cover on roof of forklift. Pre covered units of plywood can be difficult but very simple. Ford slightly tilted, pick up on top of unit while driving in so you don't drive forks into tarp of bottom unit,
Is it the job safety video "How not to do it"? What a nincompoop! The neighbour doesn't seem to like his forklift. If he really is a carpenter, it's amazing that he is still alive.
I think I’ve found the wrong video somehow I was only looking around because i’ve got my refresher tomorrow as a little reminder ffs.this should be used for beginners in the classroom lol
When unloading, you lift the load, reverse back a little so you don't move the pack behind it, then tilt back. You then have your steering wheel straight, not turned,and gently reverse back, looking in the direction of travel. By reversing back straight, you can lower the load as soon as possible, as the lowest position is the safest. Humans should never be used as counter weights. Get a bigger machine! When you park it, forklift blades should be on the ground, tilted forward and handbrake on. If you're moving a tall load that restricts forward vision, drive in reverse. Just follow the logic.
one of his issues is he keeps cutting the wheels way too deep... look at the 6:22 mark... dude you ain't moving with the wheels cut that deep... he keeps killing the engine trying to move like that... same thing at the 8:38 mark, i mean dude what are we doing here?????
As a newly qualified 3 & 5 tonne forklift and a 7.5t sideloader operator (I won't say driver)...this made my brain bleed. The sausage struggled to get the first pack off and when he did, his arse was bouncing up and down... what did he think would happen with the second pack?
@@charlesnelson838 I've just watched this again with a few months hardcore liftyboi experience under my belt and honestly, I want to jump through the screen, slap both the idiots and do it myself. Lol...I've been told I'm not an operator anymore too. I'm a driver now! Woohoo! Haha!
Olá está bem claro que carga ultrapassar os limites da empilhadeira. Ainda bem que nada aconteceu pois esse cara que subiu na máquina para fazer o contra peso correu um grande risco de se machucar feio
Si la carga supera la capacidad del fort lifts.. no tienes cuando poder realizar el trabajo. Vi 4 errores....no te pusiste el cinturón de seguridad, dejaste subir a una persona al equipo, dejaste que una persona subiera al mástil y que pasara por debajo de las.horquillas
Dónde le dieron la certificación a este operador claro si se le puede decir operador, lleva hasta la carga mal el tiene que bajar la carga inmediatamente y llevarla al raz del suelo!! 💀💀💀 Este hombre es un peligro!!
No puedo creer lo que nos hijos vieron de verdad algo inapropiado riesgos de todas formas esa persona es un peligro y más el trailero al poner en riesgo su propia vida y pensé que en Estados Unidos no se asían esas maniobras
Guey no tienes que curvar mucha la direccion solo entra y listo con la llantas de la direccion rectas ese pedal no es el apropiado el que estas pisando con la pierna izquierda en el centro hay otro que tambien hace el mismo trabajo, y es mas seguro.
no one gave advice to this driver, 1. the forks must go all the way under the load, 2. as soon as you lift a load, especially a heavy one, before moving, tilt the crane with the load towards you or as close as possible to the forklift, then the load will come on the rear wheels, 3. as soon as you move away, immediately lower the load as close to the ground as possible..
I saw a video where a load was to heavy and the back wheels went up and someone tried hopping on the back to weigh it down like in the video and they fell under and got crushed
