While investigating fork lift truck hire in and around Durham you might wish to be aware that a forklift driver also has a legal duty to ensure the safety of others. In one case a forklift driver working at a sawmill was fined £1,750 plus costs after an incident in which he hit a fellow employee causing a fractured pelvis, cuts and bruises. The driver''s vision was impaired by the load he was carrying. In this case the employer had employed an in-house forklift truck trainer and the driver had received regular refresher training and re-testing and as a result it was the employee not the employer that was fined for this incident.
When you are investigating fork lift truck hire in and around Durham it might help you to know that electric forklift trucks need a battery charger and that most of the chargers require a 3 phase electric supply, which is not always available. Single phase charging units are available in the market but they usually only work on low-amp batteries.
