Off-Road Forklift Daily Safety Inspection
A forklift should be checked before loaded work begins. Brakes, steering, forks, mast, tires and warning devices are especially important on uneven outdoor sites.
Start with the real job
Do not select equipment from one maximum number. Describe the normal job, the hardest condition and the limits around the work area. This makes quotations easier to compare and reduces configuration changes later.

Common questions
What information should be sent with an inquiry?
Send the application, working conditions, required dimensions, destination and any limits that affect access or operation.

When are final specifications confirmed?
Final specifications are confirmed in the technical quotation and order documents before production.
