    Hello Queen Jolene please don't sell off the channel as I remember you guys had a boss before and it didn't go well so please don't go down that path again. I think it has been so much better since you and Bad Chad went on you're own. Thanks and much love and respect from a fellow Canadian.

    I worked as a maintenance worker in a factory for 30 years and have used a hilo from time to time. It is always required to inspect the hilo before you use it. The basics are check the fuel, tires, brakes, battery, steering, lights, hydraulic fluid, etc. The seat belt is important because if you flip the hilo you want to remain in the seat. When you are driving the hilo you want to understand that the tires are usually smooth so any water or oil on the road will cause you to loose control if you are turning or driving. Make sure that your parking brake is adjusted so that it will hold the hilo in place. You are also suppose to drive backwards if your load blocks your vision. Even driving forward is difficult because your vision is partially blocked by the mast. Have fun and drive slow until you get more experience. You are smart and will do great!

  • @alancollett5566

    Just a suggestion, there is some really good one day forklift courses available as forklift accidents have become very common, WCB at least in B.C. have insisted any person operating a forklift must be certified, they are really great courses offered and taught by very experienced operators, I have been an equipment operator since 1973, I believe the basics of operating any piece of equipment should be taught by an experienced operator, their expertise is invaluable, once you understand the basics it's up to you to put them to use, like anything, the more you do it the better you'll get, My best advice is first you get good, then you get fast, don't rush!, just something to think about! CHEERS!

      Mast all the way back, you should have about 3/4in at the heals. Primary chains adjust that. Secondary chains , you tighten them up till the first rail is even with the second rail..first being the very center one.

    Hey Julian this is Jose from New Hampshire I have something that might be easier for you the handle the forklift each handle of the forklift you should paint a color for the forks will be one color and for the high it'll be another color that way you know which handle goes to what just by looking at the colors of the handle and the color of what it operates when making I think a lot easier for you for an example the red handle would match the forks the other color would match the til add the up and down that way you won't forget what handle does what you just look at the color and the magic color what the machine does color coding I hope that it works if you try my suggestion love and God bless you and Chad

  • @johnwade5747
    @johnwade5747 3 місяці тому

    Hard tired forklifts get stuck in rock really easy. If it spins the tire and you can feel it tilt just a little, it’s best to stop right there and get a vehicle to push or pull it in just a little bit because if you accelerate and let it spin any more than the tiny bit that it has , It will only get stuck worse and once it sits down on the undercarriage, it takes something really strong to move it. Any spinning at all… It’s time to regroup! We had the twins to that one at my workplace

    Glad you got yourselves a forklift. They are a great tool to have. I started driving forklifts when I was only 11 years old. They are top heavy so when moving heavy loads, take your time and don't get in a big hurry or else Murphy will rear his ugly head and you will be in for a bad day. Make sure you adhere to the load limits and follow all safety precautions of your specific model. Good luck!
