Use this forklift pre-operational checklist to complete start-of-shift safety checks and confirm your truck is fit for use. Record equipment details, inspect tyres, forks and mast, check hydraulics for leaks, verify seat belt and guards, test horn, lights, beeper and alarms, confirm gauges, brakes, steering and parking brake, and note any defects. Capture corrective actions and mark the unit out of service if needed. Suitable for common brands and models, this template helps standardize daily inspections and improve compliance.
