This monthly forklift operator inspection checklist helps designated technicians assess forklift readiness and safety. It covers identification, pre-start checks for tyres, fuel, fire extinguisher, fluid levels, structure, forks, mast, lights, engine bay, load plate, guards, and controls. Post-start checks include controls, warning devices, lights and strobes, steering, brakes, and hydraulics. Record whether the unit is safe to use, note issues, and capture signatures to support compliance and preventive maintenance scheduling. Ideal for shop floors, warehouses, and wind O&M sites using forklifts.
