Kamloops Counterbalance Forklift Training

Kamloops Counterbalance Forklift Training - Counterbalance Forklift Training courses are always in high demand. The Counterbalance forklift is a forklift which is made with a weight which counters the balance, equally spreading the weight of the load across the forklift arms. Counterbalance forklifts are designed so the weight behind the center of gravity is counterbalanced by the weight on the lift. The load is projected out from the front of the machinery so it is visible to the driver of the forklift. This particular type of forklift truck must only be utilized on level, stable ground or on a prepared surface.

Training is necessary for forklift operators to know the correct way to distribute the load equally across the forklift arms. Trainees would know how to lower and raise the load vertically and how to tilt the mast of the forklift both forwards and backwards between 5 and 15 degrees. Trainees would learn the RTITB standards needed for safe forklift operation. People training would also become familiar with the types of attachments for the forklift arms.
