Also know as a Lull or Telehandler
Course Description:
This program is designed to provide the forklift operator with an understanding and awareness of forklift operations and hazards. This training program meets OSHA's training requirements for forklift operations (OSHA 1910.178). The course consists of classroom study (course manual provided), a written exam, video presentation, on-site hazard assessment, equipment inspection, and a "hands on" performance evaluation of each operator.**
Participants will receive a laminated Photo ID “Certificate of Completion” wallet card valid for three (3) years upon successful completion of this course (This card is not a Hoisting License). The customer will receive class rosters and course evaluations. In some states (MA & RI) a Hoisting License is required. This operator safety training certificate satisfies OSHA's requirement for training or re-training every 3 years. This class is not a Hoisting License class. If a Hoisting License is required, you must apply for the Hoisting License and attend the hoisting license exam through the state to which you operate a forklift. Course Materials Provided: - Forklift Safety Handbook - Pre-operational rough terrain lift truck inspection checklist - Hand Signal Chart Minimum Class Size: 4 students
**Customer Must have a Rough Terrain Forklift on site for the hands-on training portion of this course.

Course Objectives:Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:Understand technical and stability aspects of forklift operations.
- Understand how to identify work place Hazards.- Causes and results of forklift accidents.- Demonstrate how to conduct a site and equipment safety
inspection.- Demonstrate through a written exam and "hands on" training,
an understanding of safe forklift operations.- Preparation for rough terrain forklift hoisting license test.- An evaluation shall be completed at the time of the initial
training and every 3 years thereafter (per OSHA).
Topics to be Discussed: Most serious forklift accidents, types of forklifts, responsibilities of a forklift operator, review of load charts, site evaluations, equipment inspection, recognizing hazards and forklift stability.
Refresher Training & Re-Training: Refresher Training is required every 3 years, per OSHA. Re-training is required when there is an accident or near miss, when a different machine is introduced, when the work location changes, or when an evaluation indicates the need. (OSHA 1910.178)
NOTE: Some States require that you have a hoisting license in order to operate a Rough Terrain Forklift. This includes needing one for training as well. Before operating any equipment, it is up to the operator of the equipment to check with their state to see if a Hoisting License is required. Hoisting Licenses are obtained through the State(s) to which you operate this equipment.
