Hazards result from the interaction of these forces in the
work place.
What are some examples of hazards in each category?
![Page 8: Fork Truck Operation Train the Trainer - A Supplement to the S.A.F.E. Program Presented by: RCS Services.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070411/56649c805503460f949368d2/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Realizing the “Center of
Gravity” is the key component to
prevent tipping incidents.

As the load is raised, the combined center of gravity will also rise.
![Page 13: Fork Truck Operation Train the Trainer - A Supplement to the S.A.F.E. Program Presented by: RCS Services.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070411/56649c805503460f949368d2/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Effects of corneringon truck stability
Which of these trucks is more stable?
![Page 14: Fork Truck Operation Train the Trainer - A Supplement to the S.A.F.E. Program Presented by: RCS Services.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070411/56649c805503460f949368d2/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Exercise caution when:
Lifting and tilting the load
Positioning the load on the stack
Turning corners
![Page 15: Fork Truck Operation Train the Trainer - A Supplement to the S.A.F.E. Program Presented by: RCS Services.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070411/56649c805503460f949368d2/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Tip over may occur
Turning at excessive speeds
Overloading the truck
Travel on uneven surface
Tramming the truck with the load in a raised/tilted position
Applying brakes or acceleration while turning
Excessive braking can cause forward or backward tips (depending on direction of travel)
![Page 16: Fork Truck Operation Train the Trainer - A Supplement to the S.A.F.E. Program Presented by: RCS Services.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070411/56649c805503460f949368d2/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
If the truck startsto tip over
Never jump from the truck
Brace yourself
Lean away from the direction of the tip
Hold on firmly
Always wear the seat belt!

What are the effects of adding an attachment such as a carpet rod or a drum clamp to thelift truck? Hint: Adding the
attachment to the front of the truck will move the load further from the truck frame. Also consider the weight of the attachment.
