Qw W
The use of an industrial truck involves certain risks, which cannot be fully
excluded even with the use of electrical devices; these risks can, however,
be minimized through intelligence, consideration, and common sense. It is,
therefore, essential that operators are qualified, diligent, and physically and
mentally fit, and have been thoroughly trained in the safe use of the machine
and in materials handling techniques.
General instructions for operators and owners
Qw W
The instructions set out below apply to all users, including managers,
supervisors, operators, carriers, and employees working in the vicinity of

and enforced.

prevent damage), shelves, and in general all gangways in which the industrial
truck may possibly be used.

designed.
