If you have come to our website to find second hand fork lifts in and around Lancashire then we would like to give you some tips.
If you are searching for second hand fork lifts in and around Lancashire you may wish to know that leaks on a second hand forklift are not cheap to fix and although some leaks can be repaired in a short time with a relatively inexpensive seal kit, leaks on triple stage masts can take much longer and be very expensive to repair.
Whilst looking for second hand fork lifts in and around Lancashire you should be aware that a bakery was fined £25,000 plus costs of £30,000 following an accident in which an employee was killed and another severely injured when they used a forklift to raise a 2 tonne dough mixing machine in order to access a broken drive belt.
While investigating second hand fork lifts in and around Lancashire take into account the physical restrictions of the areas in which a machine will have to operate. In particular consider any doorways through which your forklift will have to move. If your doorways are standard 1.8m (6ft) or 2.4m (8ft) high then you obviously wont be able to use a machine with a collapsed mast height of over 3m (10ft). Before making your selection make sure that all the doorways and openings that it will need to fit through have been measured.
While investigating second hand fork lifts in and around Lancashire you should be aware that a business was fined £2,000 and plus costs when a Health and safety Executive inspector found a worker being lifted eight feet into the air on a forklift truck to fit a company sign on the building. Although no one was hurt this incident had all the hallmarks of an accident waiting to happen. Accidents involving fork lift trucks make up a significant proportion of accidents in the workplace and it is an employer’s responsibility to ensure that drivers receive proper training and that equipment is used correctly.
