Know the Hazards

LOOK WHERE YOU'RE DRIVING

Always be alert to the area around you and watch where

you are driving.  You could be pinned or crushed by 

driving into walls or racks or other fixed objects.

You could also be seriously injured by objects intruding

or poking into the operator area.

WATCH YOUR FEET AND HANDS

• While riding, keep your feet on the platform and hands

on the controls at all times.  This truck weighs about

1360 kg or 3000 pounds, even without a load. You

cannot stop or even slow it down with your foot, hand

or any part of your body, no matter how slow the

truck is moving.  A foot or hand caught between the

truck and a wall, post or any fixed object will be

crushed or even cut off.

• When walking and traveling power unit first, protect

your legs and feet by staying to the side and keeping

out of the path of the truck.
