Conduct a thorough prestart inspection for forklifts before each shift. This checklist covers visual damage, brakes and steering, seatbelt and controls, warning devices, tires, fluids and leaks, battery or LPG, ventilation and gas checks, tines, guards and ROPS, and reverse beeper, lights and horn. Verify onboard documentation, certificates and rating plates. Confirm operator licensing and competency, communicate emergency procedures, and sign off, tagging out any unsafe equipment.
