Summary of basic safety operation specifications and precautions for electric forklifts

Electric forklifts are currently widely used material handling equipment in warehousing and factory settings. The standardization of the operation process is directly related to the safety of personnel, goods and site facilities. The implementation of corresponding operating guidelines throughout the process is the core prerequisite for the operation.

Before starting the equipment, it is necessary to check around the car to confirm that there is no obvious damage to the appearance of the body, no foreign body stuck in the tire gap, and no deformation and cracking of the fork. Then test whether the brakes, steering system, warning lights, and honking functions are running normally. At the same time, confirm that the remaining power can support the needs of this operation. Adjust the seat position and the angle of the rearview mirror, fasten the safety belt, and drive for a short distance without load after starting. Confirm that the response of each power function is normal. If there are irrelevant personnel around the operation area, it is necessary to sound a reminder in advance to avoid and eliminate the surrounding safety hazards before officially starting the operation.

Safety precautions in the transportation process, the whole operation needs to strictly abide by the speed limit requirements in the site, the main road of the factory should be kept at a low speed, and the horn should be slowed down in advance when passing through turns, entrances and exits, and crowded passages. Keep a sufficient safe distance from other surrounding equipment and personnel. During the driving process, it is strictly forbidden to carry people illegally, and do not turn sharply in the ramp area unless there are special circumstances. Under normal driving conditions, the fork should be kept at a safe height of 10 to 20 cm above the ground, and the door frame should be properly tilted back to avoid the goods slipping. When encountering the situation where the front line of sight is completely blocked by the goods, it is necessary to choose to reverse the car slowly or arrange for the guide personnel to open the way in front. It is strictly forbidden to rush blindly. Do not slam the direction or step on the brakes during the whole process to avoid

Safety operation specifications for loading and unloading stacking links. Before forking the goods, adjust the spacing between the two forks, so that the weight of the goods is evenly distributed on the two forks to avoid partial loading. At the same time, strictly abide by the rated load requirements of the equipment, and do not overload the operation. When lifting high-altitude goods, the door frame should be moderately tilted back to ensure that the center of gravity of the goods is stable. When picking and unloading goods at high levels, the speed should be further reduced. It is forbidden for personnel to stand on the forks or pallets to lift heavy objects, and personnel should not be allowed to pass or stay under the suspended forks. When stacking goods, make sure that the cargo space is placed smoothly. After confirming that the goods will not slip down, slowly withdraw from the fork and exit the operation area.

The parking operation requirements after the end of the operation. After the operation is completed on the same day, the electric forklift should be parked in the designated special parking area, and do not occupy key positions such as fire exits and emergency safety exits. After stopping, the fork should be completely landed, the door frame should be adjusted to the horizontal normal state, the handbrake should be pulled, the power supply of the whole vehicle should be turned off, and the key should be unplugged. The equipment with insufficient remaining power warning value should be transferred to the special charging area for standardized charging. The charging operation should be kept away from flammable and explosive items. If abnormal situations such as abnormal noises and brake failure are found in the equipment during daily operation, it should be stopped and reported as soon as possible. Do not let the equipment run with faults. Regularly cooperate with the point inspection and maintenance work of the equipment, which can not only reduce the long-term wear and tear of the equipment
