Telehandler Operation
Be certain that the platform is securely attached to
the telehandler, lifting carriage and forks.
Be certain that the lifting carriage and forks are
secured to prevent them from pivoting freely.
Do not drive the telehandler
when occupants are in the
platform.
Always fully lower the platform and have
occupants leave the platform before driving the
telehandler.
Before elevating personnel, the area shall be
marked to warn of work by elevated personnel.
Prior to lifting personnel, platform occupants and
telehandler operator must establish a means of
communication for positioning of the platform.
Be sure that operators of other overhead and
floor level machines are aware of the machine’s
presence.
Do not adjust the stabilizers while the platform is
occupied.
