What are the risks when operating a rough terrain forklift?

In rough-terrain forklift handling operations, phenomena such as overloading, unstable and unbalanced loading and unloading of goods, and accidental falling of goods causing injuries frequently occur. Possible causes include: during operation, the rough-terrain forklift lifts the load too quickly, or the speed during transfer exceeds the specified limit, and sudden braking or avoidance in response to a situation causes the goods on the vehicle to fall; it may also be that the goods are not tightly secured to the vehicle body as required, or the loaded goods do not match the fork arm device, causing the goods to fall from the fork carriage. To address this risk, the following key points can be used to solve or minimize it: operating a rough-terrain forklift should strive for stability; before transporting and driving, stack the goods neatly and secure them tightly to the fork carriage; when driving, avoid sudden braking and sharp turns; promptly level uneven driving surfaces; at the same time, operate according to relevant regulations and procedures, and do not load or unload goods beyond the rated capacity. When the load on the fork carriage is too heavy, it can cause the rear of the vehicle to lift. If a person is allowed to stand at one end of the rough-terrain forklift at this time and use body weight as counterbalance, the rear of the vehicle will suddenly tilt upward when lifting the goods, causing the person to fall and be injured. The cause of such an accident may be overloading the rough-terrain forklift, or a lack of protective measures at the position where the person stands. Regarding the safe use of rough-terrain forklifts, operators should carefully check before operation whether components such as the seat belt, horn, lights, and reversing alarm are functioning properly, pay attention to the forklift's operating speed, and check changes in vehicle stability. Operators should fasten their seat belts, follow relevant standards before each operation, and at the same time correctly select and install tires, and choose suitable inner tubes according to tire specifications.
