Red Deer Counterbalance Forklift Training - Demand is always high for our popular Counterbalance Forklift Truck Training courses. A Counterbalance forklift is a forklift with a weight that counters the balance, enabling the load's weight to be spread equally 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 machine so it is visible to the forklift driver. This particular type of forklift truck must only be utilized on prepared surface or on stable, level ground.
Forklift drivers are required to obtain training which will allow them to better know the right or proper method across the forklift arms. The trainee would be taught to correctly raise and lower the load vertically and how to tilt the mast of the lift truck, moving the mast between 5 and 15 degrees both backwards and forwards. Trainees would know the RTITB standards required for safe forklift operation. Trainees would also know the types of attachments for the forklift arms.
