View :
Last Update : 2025-12-05

Part One: Pre-Operation Preparation and Inspection

I. Pre-Start Equipment Inspection

External Integrity Confirmation

Inspect the frame, mast, and overhead guard for any obvious damage

Confirm reflective markings and safety warning signs are intact and clear

Check the vehicle body for oil stains and debris

Core Component Condition Confirmation

Tire Inspection: For pneumatic tires, confirm normal pressure; for solid tires, check for wear.

Forks and Attachments:Confirm no cracks or deformation; surfaces should be smooth and free of burrs.

Chains and Pulleys: Check lubrication and wear.

II. Safety System Functional Testing

Electrical System Self-Test

Observe after power is connected Instrument panel indicator light status

Test lighting system (headlights, taillights, hazard lights)

Check horn, reversing buzzer, and other audible and visual alarm devices

Handling performance verification

Parking brake test: Verify braking effect on a flat surface

Service brake test: Test braking response at low speeds

Emergency stop button: Verify the sensitivity and effectiveness of the response

Part Two: Standard Driving Operation Techniques

I. Basic Driving Principles

Starting and Driving Control

Accelerate slowly when starting, avoiding sudden acceleration and braking

Keep the driving speed within the factory area below 10 km/h

Keep the forks off the ground Safe Height: 15-20cm

Driving Precautions

Maintain a sufficient safe distance from the vehicle in front (3 times the vehicle length recommended).

Reduce speed to below 5km/h when turning and activate turn signals in advance.

Consider your surroundings constantly, paying attention to blind spots.

II. Special Operating Conditions

Slope Operation Procedures

Proceed forward uphill, reverse downhill, maintain a straight line.

Turning, turning, or stopping on slopes is strictly prohibited.

Use the slow-down function when descending a heavily loaded slope.

Complex Environment Handling

Narrow Passages: Confirm passage space, provide guidance if necessary.

Wet/Slippery Roads: Reduce speed and avoid emergency braking. Intersections: Stop, observe, and proceed only after confirming safety.

Part Three: Loading and Unloading Operation Standards

I. Cargo Handling Process

Standard Picking Procedures

Adjust fork spacing to match cargo size

Approach the cargo slowly and accurately insert the pallet

Lift the cargo to a safe height off the ground before moving it

Stacking Operation Standards

Confirm the stacking area is level and has sufficient space

When stacking, lift the cargo to more than 30cm above the rack before moving it horizontally

When placing cargo, lower it first and then tilt it to ensure stability

II. Special Cargo Handling

Non-standard Dimension Cargo

Extra-long cargo requires additional securing Fixed

For oversized cargo, ensure sufficient aisle width.

For oversized cargo, someone must guide it during transport.

Special Properties of Cargo

Fragile Items: Handle with care, avoid vibration.

Liquid Containers: Confirm sealing, drive at a constant speed.

Irregular Cargo: Use special attachments or auxiliary securing.

Part Four: Equipment Maintenance and Care

I. Energy Management Standards

Battery Charging Procedure

Operate in the designated charging area, ensuring good ventilation.

Charge according to the instructions.

Check the connection status after charging.

Daily Maintenance Points

Clean the vehicle body and working device after operation.

Fixed Regularly check hydraulic oil level and quality.

Perform lubrication maintenance at all lubrication points according to plan.

II. Preventive Maintenance Plan

Daily: Cleaning, basic inspection

Weekly: Fastener inspection, functional testing

Monthly: Comprehensive inspection, performance evaluation

Quarterly: Professional maintenance, component replacement

Part Five: Safety and Emergency Management

I. Prohibited Behaviors

Prohibited: Overloading

Prohibited: Carrying non-operating personnel

Prohibited: Using mobile phones while in motion

Prohibited: Forcing operation when equipment is malfunctioning

Prohibited: Unauthorized operation

II. Emergency Response

Equipment Failure Response Immediately stop work and activate warning devices.

Bring equipment to a safe location and ensure it is securely stopped.

Notify professional maintenance personnel for handling.

Emergency Accident Handling

Personal Injury: Immediately cut off power and administer first aid.

Cargo Collapse: Establish a warning zone and clean up in an orderly manner.

Electrical Accident: Cut off the main power supply and report the incident.

III. Personnel Safety Management

Operator Requirements

Hold a valid operating certificate to work.

Wear personal protective equipment correctly while working.

Maintain good physical condition; do not work while ill.

On-site Personnel Management

Non-operating personnel should maintain a safe distance.

Establish a clearly marked work warning zone. Domain

Equip with necessary on-site safety supervisors

Part Six: Handover and Record Management

I. Shift Handover System

Handover Content Requirements

Equipment operating status and remaining power

Problems found during the shift and their handling

Completed maintenance work and follow-up suggestions

Standardized handover process

Both parties jointly inspect the equipment status

Fill out the handover record and sign for confirmation

Important matters should be verbally confirmed.

II. Record and File Management

Daily recording of equipment operation logs

Timely archiving of maintenance records

Detailed preservation of fault handling records

Complete retention of training and assessment records.
