What you should know about reach truck training

• Reach trucks come in various categories, so different skills and training are required for safe and efficient operation.
• Working at Heigh: The Racking systems in reach truck operations are different to those encountered by counterbalance forklift operators. With increased racking height comes increased risk so operators must receive training that equips them to operate safely at height, with accuracy, efficiency and an understanding of the specific risks posed by drive-through and drive-in racking systems.
• No travelling on inclines because it can pose the biggest risk for reach truck operations. Our trainees must be able to recognise the risks relating to negotiating inclines and demonstrate competence in negotiating inclines with a laden and unladen truck.
• The stability and centre of gravity of a reach truck differs to a counterbalance truck because they are designed to reach out towards the racking further than their stabilising legs.
• Observe all signs. Be aware of the height of the load. Follow the work site rules and guidelines.

Do not over speed past the speed limit. Take corners and any turns slowly to minimise risk of tipping.
Avoid Hazards such as bumps.
Ensure your load is stable and secure.
