Forklift Myths – Debunked!

Whilst some myths and legends are fun, forklift myths are very much the opposite. If you’re looking for more advice about forklifts, look no further – here’s some of the top myths about forklifts debunked!

Any forklift can do the job. Not true at all – there are a number of specialist models depending on your products, requirements and available space. Think carefully when considering what sort of forklift you need in your warehouse.

Forklift maintenance is optional, most important when your forklift breaks. Absolutely not the case! Regular maintenance means you can catch small problems before they become fatal to your vehicle – make sure you have a regular forklift maintenance schedule – and stick to it!

Forklifts are easy to operate without training. Importantly, this is absolutely untrue – training is imperative. Not only should only trained professionals use forklifts, but their training should be regularly refreshed – best practise can change and bad habits can creep in. A strong training schedule is an absolute must.

And that’s where we can help!
