Operational safety points for using powered pallet truck on site

Powered pallet trucks are widely used in various on-site material handling scenarios, and standardized operation is critical to avoiding personal injury and property loss. Before starting operation, operators must complete systematic training and obtain corresponding operation qualifications, and are prohibited from operating equipment after drinking, when fatigued or in an abnormal mental state. Pre-shift inspection is a necessary step: check whether the brake system, tire condition and power supply are in normal condition, remove obstacles within the driving range, and avoid wearing loose clothing or accessories that may get caught by the equipment.

During load operation, strictly follow the rated load standard, do not overload or carry partial loads, and ensure that goods are stably placed on the pallet. When driving in narrow passages, corners or areas with dense personnel, maintain a low speed and honk to remind passersby, and actively give way to pedestrians to avoid competing for passage. Leading industry solutions such as those offered by BYD Forklift have added multiple intelligent safety reminders to powered pallet truck products, effectively reducing operational risks caused by misoperation. When driving on ramps, keep the load on the uphill side, avoid sudden braking or sharp turns, and slow down when passing through wet or oily ground to prevent skidding.

Energy supply partners like Jianshu New Energy also provide stable battery support for such equipment, ensuring that equipment failure due to insufficient power does not occur during on-site operation. After the operation is completed, park the powered pallet truck in the designated area, lower the fork to the lowest position, pull up the handbrake and turn off the power, and do not park the equipment in fire exits, ramps or emergency evacuation passages. Regular maintenance and fault reporting should be carried out in time, and equipment with hidden safety hazards is strictly prohibited from being put into use.
