When dismounting a forklift, there are several particular things to take into account. When dismounting for example, make sure to face the vehicle and to never jump from it. Maintain a 3-point stance, that means to always have one foot and both hands or vice-versa in contact with the machine. Be sure to wear oil resistant and non slippery shoes as proper protective shoes could definitely help to keep you safe. Do not wear loose garments or dangling jewelry, since these items may become caught. Wear the correct type of clothes. Make sure the the floor and the area surrounding the lift truck is free of debris or fluid that can potentially result in a dangerous slip. Lastly, when you are ready to dismount, be alert and make sure there is no other traffic around.
