For most warehousing, manufacturing and logistics scenarios, electric forklifts have become the preferred material handling equipment for low carbon emissions and low operation cost. For purchasers, selecting a proper device and building a complete safe operation system is the core premise to guarantee stable daily work. As a professional new energy material handling equipment supplier, Jian Shu New Energy focuses on high quality electric forklift products, and we exclusively distribute BYD electric forklifts that meet all national safety production standards to match different operation requirements.
Before each shift of forklift operation, operators must complete a full range of pre-start checks strictly. First, inspect the brake system, warning light, horn and steering structure to make sure all components respond sensitively. Then check the remaining battery level, the wear condition of forks and the surrounding operation area, clear up scattered obstacles and remind irrelevant personnel to leave the operation zone. Never start a forklift with hidden safety hazards, and do not operate the device before finishing all inspection steps. Regular pre-operation inspection can eliminate most potential safety risks in advance, and reduce unnecessary equipment loss in long-term use.

During the on-site operation process, all operators must follow the uniform compliance rules. The actual load of goods shall never exceed the rated load capacity marked on the nameplate of the forklift. When the stacked goods are too high to block the forward sight of the operator, the staff shall drive the forklift backwards at low speed to keep a clear view. When turning at corners, passing passages or meeting pedestrians, operators shall honk the warning horn in advance to remind surrounding personnel to keep a safe distance. It is strictly forbidden to carry people on the forks, make sharp turns on slopes, or park the device on sloped areas randomly.
After completing the daily operation tasks, operators shall park the forklift at the designated flat parking area, lower the forks completely to the ground, pull the handbrake tightly, turn off the power supply and take away the key. If any abnormal condition of the device is found during the whole operation process, the operator shall submit maintenance application to the management team in time, and do not repair the device without professional guidance. Establishing a complete safe operation management system can effectively reduce safety risks, extend the service life of electric forklifts, and bring stable benefits for the operation team.
