WHAT EXAMINATIONS INCLUDE AND WHEN THEY'RE REQUIRED
A thorough examination inspects all critical forklift components, including the mast, overhead guard, carriage, lifting chains, hydraulics, brakes, steering, and safety devices like horns and warning lights. Load testing is conducted when necessary to verify safe lifting capacity. These inspections are typically required every 6 or 12 months, depending on machine usage and working environment. Additionally, forklifts must be examined after any major repair, refurbishment, or modification to confirm ongoing safety.
HOW THE EXAMINATION PROCESS WORKS & REPORTING
We offer flexible inspection options, conducting examinations either on-site at your business or in our fully equipped workshop. After inspection, a detailed report and a LOLER-compliant certificate valid for the inspection period are issued. Our reports clearly outline any faults or areas requiring attention, along with recommendations and quotations for any necessary repairs. This ensures transparency and easy management of your forklift fleet's safety status.
