FOR SUPERVISORS
Lift truck accidents cause dozens or hundreds of deaths every
year, and even greater numbers of personal injuries.
TCM has steadily improved the design and fabrication of our lift
trucks so they may be used more safely and efficiently, but many
accidents still occur due to improper use. Accidents are often the
result of more than just “bad driving”. The use of inappropriate
types of equipment, the selection of inappropriate attachments or
accessories, inappropriate operating environments, careless
designation of operators, and failure to properly train the operator
are other common causes of accidents.
It is not possible to describe all potentially hazardous situations
which may occur while operating, inspecting or servicing a forklift
truck. The warnings and cautions in this manual, including the
decals attached to the forklift, are not intended to cover all possible
working hazards.
If you operate, inspect or service the forklift in a manner not
described in this manual, please be careful because you do so at
your own risk.
This chapter covers the methods of accident prevention which
are primarily the responsibility of supervisory personnel.
• Pages 1 - 2 through 1 - 13 contain instructions which should
be enforced by the personnel supervising the operation of the
lift truck. Please make sure the operators also read these pages.
• Page 1 - 14 and the following pages contain specific precautions
directly related to the operation of the lift truck.
The following symbols, found throughout this manual, alert you
to potentially dangerous conditions to the owner and the
operator. Become completely familiar with the truck before
proceeding with operating, checking and servicing the truck.
This manual and the decals affixed to the truck use the following
safety alert indications.
The diagram above indicates the meanings of the terms
“forward”, “backward”, “right” and “left” used in this manual.

FOR SUPERVISORS QUALIFIED OPERATORS
1 - 2
TIRED OR UNWELL? SEND THEM HOME!
Do not let people take chances. An operator who is overworked
or fatigued, an operator who is feeling unwell, or an operator
who is intoxicated must not be allowed in the driver’s seat.
WEAR PROTECTIVE GEAR
• Always wear proper work clothes for driving. Work clothes
should be designed to prevent any part from accidentally
catching on knobs or other parts of the truck or equipment.
For example, shirts and trousers should have tight cuffs.
• Always wear a hard hat and safety shoes.
• Wear other protective gear as appropriate to the conditions
of the work site, i.e., goggles or gloves.
PROVIDE AND MAINTAIN EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT
Fire extinguishers and first aid kits should be provided and
maintained for use in case of a fire or accident. All personnel
should understand the location and use of emergency equipment.
TRAIN OPERATOR TO STACK SAFELY
“Stacking” means piling up a palleted load or material directly on
top of each other, without using racks or shelves to separate them.
If stacking work is not done properly, the loads may slip or fall,
endangering the operator as well as fellow workers in the area.
Safety classes should be held to train all operators in the proper
method of stacking and unstacking loads.
(Your TCM dealer can provide information about safety stacking
training.)

KNOW WHO TO CALL IN AN EMERGENCY
Keep information on hand to allow immediate calls for help in
case of a fire, accident or other emergency.
MAKE AN OPERATING PLAN AND DISCUSS IT
MARK THE TRAVEL LANES
Designate the travel lanes for the lift truck and mark them clearly,
so they will be kept free of obstruction.
SET SPEED LIMITS
Set appropriate speed limits on your company grounds, and
post signs that are clearly visible.
(Example)
Yard Speed

Before using the lift truck, plan out the travel routes and
operating procedures, and thoroughly discuss the details with

KEEP PEOPLE OUT OF THE OPERATING AREA
No other personnel should be allowed in areas where the lift
truck is used.
Where other people must be present, post a guide whose job
is to make sure people stay clear of moving vehicles.
KEEP UNAUTHORIZED VEHICLES OUT
Unauthorized vehicles must be kept out of the load handling
areas. Post signs or give signals as required.
ASSIGN TRAFFIC GUIDES TO CONGESTED AREAS
Post a traffic guide in confined or congested areas where other
people or vehicles may pass. All personnel must obey the
guide’s signals.
PROVIDE ADEQUATE LIGHTING
Safe operation requires well-lit traveling routes, so pedestrians
and obstacles can be easily seen. Use headlights, taillights,
helmet lamps or other lights as appropriate.
