Trained Operators

One of the most important factors to the smooth running of a fork lift is the person who is actually operating it, as a trained driver is one that is safe, careful and will be able spot any problem as soon as it arises.

Regularly Check the Tyres

Tyres are the only suspension on a fork lift, so letting them wear down excessively could also result in drive-train wear, mast bearing wear or an accelerated wheel bearing – all of which are much more costly to repair than the expense of new tyres.

Keep the Machine Clean

Quite an obvious tip, but one many might neglect in a busy working environment. Whether you’re using a fork lift on a muddy reclamation yard Peterborough or a seemingly clean warehouse, your fork lift will still require a regular cleaning to ensure the smooth running of all components.

Before Using:

The checks you make before using the forklift could make the difference between you or someone in your factory becoming seriously injured. For this reason, it’s extremely important to check all areas of the forklift before getting in and turning the key in the ignition.

It’s advisable to check for any loose parts or faults which could potentially cause injury. If possible, you should also check the brakes, lights and that the back-up alarm is working correctly.

Drivers:

A forklift, although not as powerful as your family car or the used trucks in your business’ fleet, should be treated with the same respect. This includes wearing the seatbelt whilst driving the machine and preventing unauthorised drivers from getting behind the wheel.

As you would when driving your car around the High Street, watch out for pedestrians, give way at any junctions in your factory and if you need to let people know you’re there, (such as when going through doors or reversing) use your horn.

Pedestrians:

If a forklift is being used in the area that you’re working within, make sure never to walk under raised forks and never stand on the forks themselves.

Whilst we here at MJC can provide you with the forklift trucks Swindon and advice on how to use the appliance safely, it’s down to you as the driver to prevent accidents occurring. If you’d like more safety advice please contact us via 01235 767717.

Some of the more common situations in which you’ll require a telehandler within the construction trade includes lifting materials, such as garage doors Gloucester, roof frames and pallets of bricks from delivery vehicles, through to lifting required building materials to heights which otherwise wouldn’t be possible without hiring a crane.

Telehandlers in the Agricultural Industry:

As with in the construction industry, telehandlers within an agricultural setting can prove to be an important piece of machinery to have available. Many farmers will use telehandlers to lift and carry items including straws bales and troughs to various areas of the farm.

Telehandlers Available:

Our range of telehandlers varies from the Genie/Terex 2506 which has a maximum reach of six-metres, through to the Genie/Terex 4017 which has a maximum reach of 17 metres and is ideal for use within the construction trade.

The team at MJC Services appreciate that it can be confusing deciphering the difference between the various types of forklifts. So what exactly is a counterbalance forklift? MJC Services are here to answer your question.

A counterbalance forklift is a forklift which is generally used to transport heavy objects. The forklift is fitted with a counterweight at the rear end. This is there to counteract the weight which is being transported, significantly reducing the risk of tipping. For this reason, counterbalance forklifts are used regularly within storage and distribution centres where they have to perform loading, stacking and transportation operations on a regular basis. You can often see a counterbalance forklift in domestic storage Leicester centres as they are used to transport heavy objects.

Why Hire A Counterbalance Forklift?

Forklifts are an expensive piece of equipment, and it is not surprising why when you consider the various functions which they can perform safety with ease. Hiring removes the excessive cost of buying a forklift and the maintenance costs which accompany it.

If you need to hire a forklift Gloucester then you need to contact the team here at MJC Services today. We offer a superb range of forklifts for you to choose from which are all inspected to ensure a safe and reliable piece of equipment.

As professionals dealing with forklift hire day in and day out, we understand what a good quality contract should include. As such, we have listed key features that a forklift hire contract should include. This varies as the type and length of contracts available often differs considerably.

The LOLER state that the lifting equipment, in this instance the forklift, should be sufficiently strong enough and stable enough for the specified task. This is paramount as it ensures the safety of the operator and those in the surrounding vicinity.
