Forklifts
A fork lift is a vehicle used for lifting and moving heavy objects. A good example of how a forklift is used can be found at grocery warehouses. Large palettes of products are pulled from the shelves, and a forklift is used to move them to lift and load them onto the trucks for delivery.

For those UK based people - Following forklift training a test is undertaken and a licence if competence is proven in the safe handling of a forklift is issued by a registered examiner. Each forklift type requires training followed by a test and the issue of a licence to operate that type of machine. Failure to do so is a breach of the health and safety at work act which is punishable under UK law. Quite a difference to requirements of other countries.

How often do you change oil on a forklift?
If you are referring to the engine motor oil, a good practice is 200-300 hours. All forklift maintenance is performed by the hourmeter. The hydraulic oil is usually changed every 1-2 years, depending on how dusty the operating environment is. The hydraulic system has several filters to clean the fluid during operation.
What does sideshift on a forklift?
This attachment allows you to shift the forks (tynes) from side to side (from the drivers seat) allowing for small adjustments to be made by the operator; enabling alignment with pallets without manoeuvring the entire forklift.
Benefits:
- Allows accurate fork positioning without the operator having to manoeuvre the truck.
- Reduced fuel and truck wear.
- Faster loading or unloading pallet times.
- Reduced pallet damage
These are the basic features on a forklift.
- Mast: The mast is the vertical support that permits raising and lowering the load.
- Carriage: A support structure where the forks are attached or mounted.
- Back Rest: Attached to the carriage and prevents the load shifting backwards, it protects the mast cylinders hoses as well as preventing any goods falling through the mast and hitting the operator.
- Fork (Tynes): The cantilevered arms attached to the load carriage, that engage the load.
- Lift Cylinder: Controls the amount by which the mast structure, forks and carriage may be raised or lowered in the vertical.
- Overhead Guard: A framework/roof, providing overhead protection for the operator from falling objects.
- Tilt Cylinder: Controls the amount by which the mast structure, forks and carriage may be tilted beyond the vertical position, forward or backward.
- Rating Plate: This is used to inform users of the maximum load a forklift can legally carry.
- Counter Weight: The weight installed by the manufacturer to give stability to the machine under load

Meaning of forklift tire 6.50x10-10pr?
6.50 means that the tyre/tire is six and a half inches wide.
The 10 is the rim diameter in inches that it fits onto.
The 10pr stands for "ten ply rating" so the tire/tyre strength is equivalent to an old-time tyre that had ten actual plies of canvas in its construction. Nowadays steel and nylon are used as reinforcement and as far as I know canvas is no longer used. One problem with canvas or cloth reinforcement is that it eventually rots and the tyre bursts.
How do you park a fork lift truck correctly?
Tilt the forkhead until the tips of the fork tines touch the ground, set the brake, shut off the engine and, if you are the only assigned driver, take the key. Usually you're not the only assigned driver, so usually you leave the key in it if it has one in the first place.
