CFTS tailors inspections to truck type
17 August 2018
When it comes to forklift inspections, one size does not fit all. From counterbalance to stacker trucks, telehandlers to demountables, each has its own unique components and inspection requirements.

Developed by a team of experts from the industry’s top manufacturers and trade associations to meet the precise requirements of the HSE, CFTS Thorough Examinations have been tailored to cover the widest range of lift trucks, including counterbalance trucks, telehandlers, rough terrain trucks, man-up models, and reach trucks.
With any lift truck it’s crucial that both the lifting mechanism (mast, chain, carriage, forks, etc.) and vehicle itself (tyres, brakes, steering, etc.) are examined. CFTS interactive guides demonstrate how Thorough Examination covers both LOLER and PUWER legal requirements across different trucks.
