Proper Daily Forklift Inspections: a Guide to Success

Daily inspections of your lift equipment are not merely suggestions, they're the law.  Maintaining compliance also saves potential fines and litigation should an accident occur, and it provides an opportunity to catch small potential problems before they blossom into costly repairs or breakdowns.

This month's Feature Article walks you through what you and your operators need to be aware of before the forklift is operated.  Need a checklist? Download our FREE daily inspection checklist. 

Our goal is to help you operate a safe, productive and compliant lift truck fleet. If you need assistance with your forklift operator training please contact Michele Piontek at 555-530-1832.
