Nanaimo Counterbalance Forklift Training

Nanaimo Counterbalance Forklift Training - Counterbalance Forklift Training courses are always in high demand. The Counterbalance forklift is a forklift that is designed along with a weight which counters the balance, equally distributing the weight of the load across the forklift arms. Counterbalance forklifts are designed so the weight behind the center of gravity is counterbalanced by the weight on the lift. The load is projected out from the front of the machinery so it is visible to the driver of the forklift. This particular type of forklift truck should just be utilized on level, stable ground or on a prepared surface.

Forklift drivers are needed to receive training which will allow them to better know the right or proper way across the forklift arms. The trainee will learn to correctly lower and raise the load vertically and how to tilt the mast of the lift truck, moving the mast between 5 and 15 degrees both backwards and forwards. Trainees will be taught the RTITB standards needed for safe forklift operation. Individuals training will also know the kinds of attachments for the forklift arms.
