Product Description:
Forklift Training BACKBONE 2 Backbone™ Forklift Rear Post - New Toyota/Raymond Counterbalance Only
A safety device for reach trucks and standup counterbalanced trucks to protect operators against accidental rear-ward collisions with racking systems that may cause serious injury without reducing overhead guard protective capability.
Installed on a reach truck by simply clamping to the overhead guard from the top and bolting to the reach truck frame at the bottom by drilling small holes. No welding required. Additional padding is strapped onto the back of the unit for operator comfort.
The Backbone™ forklift rear post is fully tested to meet all required ASME and ANSI Standards.
Forklift truck operators must look in the direction of travel and keep the forklift under control at all times. One of the potential hazards faced by standup forklift operators is the crushing hazard that can arise when traveling, with the forks trailing, in a warehouse near a storage rack or similar obstruction. The risk is that a horizontal rack beam (crossbar) or similar obstruction might enter the operator’s compartment in a situation referred to as “under-ride.” This Safety and Health Information Bulletin (SHIB) discusses ways to reduce the crushing hazard to the operator associated with under-ride. Awareness of the precautions and safety measures highlighted in this SHIB can help prevent serious injuries and fatalities related to warehouse operations.
The purpose of this SHIB is to alert standup forklift operators and employers to the crushing hazard to the operator associated with under-ride; Identify standup forklift features that are available on new equipment or that can be installed on standup forklifts to address the hazard (ANSI/ITSDF B56.1-2005, para. 4.5.3, 7.30, 7.36.); Identify arrangements or modifications of storage racks that might reduce the risk of under-ride.
A forklift “under-ride” hazard arises when the forklift operator travels with the forks trailing and backs up toward the storage rack. If the operator drives the forklift too far, so that the forklift passes beneath the horizontal crossbar (i.e., the operator creates an “under-ride”), the crossbar can enter the operator’s compartment and crush the operator inside the compartment.
Proper training is essential to the safe operation of powered industrial trucks. Paragraph (l) of OSHA’s Powered Industrial Trucks Standard, 29 CFR 1910.178, contains training and certification requirements for the use of forklifts that are specific to the workplace. The standard requires employers to develop and implement a training program for all operators based on the general principles of safe truck operation; the types of vehicles being used in the workplace, including the instructions, warnings, and precautions found in the operator’s manual; the hazards of the workplace created by the use of the vehicle; and the general safety requirements of the OSHA standard. Additionally, 29 CFR 1910.178(n)(1) and (n)(6) require operators to keep the forklift under control at all times and to look in the direction of travel.
