Forklift Training PPT
Powered Pallet Truck (PPT) operator training for safe operation of electric pallet movers in warehouses.
About This Course
Powered Pallet Trucks (PPTs) are among the most commonly used pieces of equipment in warehouses, retail distribution centres, and manufacturing facilities. Despite appearing straightforward to operate, PPTs present real risks of injury to operators and other workers if not used correctly.
