    Great introductory video. I have over 25 years experience warehousing. Eight years as a trainer. Competent on a sit down counterbalance, stand up counterbalance (as shown here) and narrow aisle reach truck with outriggers. I have trained or re-certified over 2300 employees. Like I said, great video. Three things I would like to comment on. 1) When stopping or changing directions using the directional control it is called plugging. Perfectly acceptable way to stop, slow down or change direction. The dead man is for emergency stops only as you said. 2) Right foot on the dead man only. Do not put both feet on it. It is your emergency stop and you don't want to have to jump off it when someone walks out in front of you. KEEP YOUR LEFT FOOT INSIDE THE MACHINE. It is very easy to let the left foot hang out the back. #1 injury using these machines is getting ones foot smashed. 3) You mentioned traveling with the tilt all the way back. This does stabalize the load, although if the load consists of many cases or individual pieces, every time you hit a little bump (like the seam in concrete sections) the load will shift slightly toward the operator. If you travel a long distance, the load will look like this / when you get to your destination. Use only enough tilt to keep the load stable. Good job.

    I've dabbled with a couple of weird ones. Don't know what they're correctly called. So one was a large truck possibly 2 ton capacity side-loading reach for long or wide loads. Once picked up, the load was lifted half the height of the vehicle then retracted and lowered on to the deck of the vehicle which extended to the front and rear of the truck. Fork tilting was done by pivots on the axles - so the whole truck tilted. It had 2 feet that could be lowered for stability. Make: Lancer Boss. The other odd one was a warehouse electric which could change direction on the spot 90° and had 360 steering. It had 4 wheels, one near the (reach) forks which was like a normal front wheel, the one diagonal to that was a free caster wheel with a suspension spring, the other rear wheel was the steering & driving wheel and the one diagonal to that could be turned hydraulically up to 90° to change the axis of travel. So it could travel forward/reverse as well as left/right. A direction pointer on the top of the wheel that steered indicated the direction of travel - as it was capable of going backwards in forward and forwards in reverse !

    I was always trained on a stand up machine to ALWAYS drive in reverse on the ones where you stand sideways for more control. I have used a few stand up forklifts where you actually stand facing forward which in that case reverse is harder. A Crown reach truck has almost zero visability through the front. but in my experience, reverse is safer because at top speed if you make small movements the back moves an inch, the front moves a foot sided to side. if you turn the wrong way by mistake at top speed, it's easier to correct in reverse before something bad happens its also easier to make turns in reverse because you can see how close you are to a rack when your right on top of it from the back. the forks will just follow you around like a trailer. I worked at Pentair in anoka and they pretty much expected top speed at most times to meet quotas. but i've used these in several places of work and usually no one drove forward until they were picking a pallet. just like its far easier to drag a pallet jack behind you and not even pay attention because its going to just follow you than it is too push it forward across the building. those are my thoughts.

    Have confidence don't give up it takes time aa. When I was new I would practice on an empty dock and I would get a stack of empty pallets preferably chep ( the blue ones) remember those pallets can look the same frontwards or sideways the truck is there is usually a white paint mark on one of the skids on the side.. take your stack apart with your lift one pallet at a time top to bottom and restack next time take your stack apart and restack but from the bottom up gotta do a little more thinking that way but remember we all started out the same way... You will be an all star in no time..

I’m in training with several other ppl and got nervous went to drive with forks in front of me and that is to never be done where I work. Only to drop off my pallet. So basically driving in reverse at the rear of this machine going “forward” everything is backwards. My problem today I was driving too slow lol. I thought slow was good. Guess going at a turtles pace isn’t good for production. I’m going back today for training and hope now after watching this I’m more comfortable and be ready for my certification. It’s my call. If I’m ready to certify or not. Right now I’m making the same money regardless. For me. It’s all about safety and confidence. Ty!

  • @Mr539forgotten
    @Mr539forgotten4 жыл бұрын

    I'm not sure if I should technically advise against this, but the biggest thing you want to master with any forklift is compound movements - especially on a reach. You don't want to be performing 2 or 3 operations in series, such as a fork reach, a fork tilt and a fork raise, such as when picking a pallet up off the floor. Instead, you want to learn to be fluid with the controls so that you can raise up the forks and tilt at the same time, then as you clear your legs (on a reach) retracting the forks back into the mast. Same thing for putting a pallet down, you don't want to reach your forks out, lower them, then tilt them forward in 3 rigid operations, you want yo do it in one, smooth, compound movement. Learning to do efficient compound movements is how you safely increase production speed, rather than operating faster than you can or going full speed 24/7. Another fun trick to learn, especially with the reaches, is to learn how to float the pallet when you're reaching. So if you come in to drop the pallet and you've driven the reach too far forward, maybe because the space was tight and you didn't have a straight approach, then you can essentially drive to where you want the pallet to be on the floor and as you slowly reverse the reach, you extend (reach) the forks. It takes a while to learn this compound movement because you've got to train your brain to perceive the pallet whilst your perspective (you) is moving and it takes pretty fine motor skills too. Pretty cool though when you reverse the reach truck and push the pallet forwards at the same rate so the pallet basically floats there. ... Then all you have to do is drop the pallet down and drive off like a badass, don't forget to tilt the forks all the way forward or you'll catch the pallet and drag it with you, making you look like a complete idiot and undoing all your hard work and expert operator training. Another thing is if you're working in high-density narrow aisle warehousing, when you learn to drive the reach, it's going to be really really difficult at the start to get the correct angles to face into the racking to pick pallets. There is no golden rule per se, but the trick is to watch your caster wheels on the legs because they're your indication of your turning circle. A reach truck has an oversteer, so you can pivot on your inside caster when and you can see it not moving at all, or you can oversteer it and you'll see your inside caster moving backwards towards you whilst your outside caster moves forwards... If that makes sense. If you pivot steer the reach, using your inside leg (the caster wheel) as the pivot point, it's almost certainly going to be very very tight to make that 90 degree turn from travelling down an aisle to facing the racking. Remember, these narrow aisles are only a little over 2 pallets wide, just wide enough for two reach trucks to travel side by side - barely wide enough to make the 90 degree turn. When I first learned, I wasn't instructed, I was just told that I had the requisite forklift ticket so I could legally drive it, so just take it slow until I figure it out. I would try to point steer on that inside wheel and I would end up almost stuck in the aisle on and angle because my turning circle was too wide or I would 'aim' my pivot point right at the edge of the pallet, then I'd have to inevitably oversteer to make the tight turn thus I would not be facing the pallet in line - I would be off to the side. The trick is to 'overshoot' the pallet because you have to oversteer it to make that tight turn. The hard part is your brain organically learning how to judge the length of the overshoot to square up to the pallet properly. Imagine closing a door. Imagine the door frame is the pallet and the door is the forklift. Just how the door pivots on the hinge to go from 90 degrees to closed, you'd intuitively think the best way to square up to a pallet in an aisle would be the same thing - to treat your inside legs caster wheel as the 'door hinge' and to pivot on that point until you square up to the pallet. Not so. However, if you overshoot it by just about a foot, then when you 'oversteer' and inevitably that pivot point wheel rotates back towards you, it moves into place and you square up nicely... Yep, anyway, definitely not the easiest skillset to instruct via writing. But those would be the two most important things about driving a reach. Consciously observe that oversteer and try to learn how it works; your brain will eventually understand it. And, learn how to make compound movements.

    I'd say the hardest thing to learn on this forklift is the steering. It's different from a car. When you're going in reverse on this forklift, you turn the wheel the opposite way from what you would do in a car. It makes this forklift very maneuverable. That doesn't mean everything else is easy to learn per say, but learning the steering I'd say, is the hardest. And it's exactly like he said at the start. The only way to learn is to drive it. Put in the hours on it. And little by little you will get better at it.

    Had to go to my near by tech school today to get trained on the standup forklift. Thanks to this video ( and the fact I’m a fast learner) I went in and killed the training. The man said in all the years he been teaching forklift, he had NEVER had anyone just come in and move the machine like a pro. He thinks I touched a forklift before when I haven’t touched one a day in my life til today🤭. I was on the exact same machine. Thank you so much and I will send recommendations to you guys👍🏽😊

    I drove a sit down forklift for over 9 years. Still figuring this one out four days later. While others who have no previous experience hop on this one and go. The trick is to don't overthink it. It's all muscle memory . Just use short steering wheel movements for travel. Until positioning at lift location. Me thinks🤯

    @@jimsox881 See my post a little ways above. I just started a new job a few days ago. I drive a truck, pulling a trailer between two company buildings. I have to load and unload at each building when I arrive. At one building I use sit downs and everything is great (I've driven sit down forklifts at other jobs, but not for years). At the other building I have to use a standup and so far I hate it, at least the one they have for me to use. The joystick is way too sensitive in my opinion, but I've never driven any other standup so I have nothing to compare it to. A tiny movement of my hand for for a fraction of a second can cause disaster. I only have about a total of about an hour running the standup in two days, and I've improved a lot since the first time I got on it, but damn, I do NOT like that machine. At least not yet.

    Although I already do operate a stand-up fork truck, you should have the camera straight on the operating dash panel. In some parts of the vid the camera isn't even on the operating lever. U also want the camera to have a close up right smack on the button U use on the lever. Ppl have left Gr8 comments on here, they are espically helpful for those who haven't operated a stand-up. Have a Gr8 day

    In the training I've had, you only drive backward when the pallet of material you're carrying is too high to see over easily. Depends on where you are though. Do what the guy who signs your paycheck tells you to do. That's the best way to get the next paycheck.

    Also if you drive forward your field of view is blocked with the mast. It is ok to drive forward for short distances, but as a rule of thumb you should always drive with the forks trailing you and you will always be looking in the direction of travel.
