Kitchener Counterbalance Forklift Training - Demand is always high for our popular Counterbalance Forklift Truck Training courses.

Counterbalance forklifts are made so the weight on the lift is counterbalanced by the weight behind the centre of gravity. The load is projected out from the equipment's front so it is visible to the operator of the forklift.

Forklift drivers are needed to acquire training that would allow them to better know the right or proper method across the arms of the forklift. The trainee would be taught to properly lower and raise the load vertically and how to tilt the lift truck mast, moving the mast between 5 and 15 degrees both backwards and forwards. Individuals training will know the RTITB standards needed for safely operating the forklift. Trainees will likewise know the types of attachments for the arms of the forklift.
