Health & Safety

• The department manager or section where the attachment is to be used must ensure the operators are fully conversant with the attachment, its operation, and maintenance and that the thumb screws are fully tightened.
• Ensure the truck and attachment can handle the intended load and contents.
• Operators must keep clear of the machine whilst in operation.
• Ensure the safety lock mechanism is engaged until the emptying operation is required.
• Do not drive into the fork pockets without retracting the thumb screws.
• Do not shock load the skip under any circumstance.
• In the event of failure during operation, do not attempt rectification or re-operation while the skip is off the ground. The attachment must be returned safely to floor level for inspection.
• Do not empty the skip whilst the forks are in the side entry pockets, as this could unbalance the fork truck.
