What do you have to have in order to drive a forklift?
Typically, forklifts feature two brake pedals: a service brake and a parking brake. When the forklift is moving, the service brake pedal is utilized to reduce speed or come to a complete stop. This brake uses the hydraulic system of the forklift to provide pressure to the brake shoes or pads, slowing or stopping the vehicle. The service brake pedal functions similarly to the brake pedal on an automobile and is typically situated to the left of the accelerator pedal. On the other side, the forklift is kept in place while it is parked by the parking brake pedal. The forklift is held stationary by this mechanical brake, which operates independently of the hydraulic system and makes use of a different set of brake shoes or pads. To aid prevent unintentional activation while driving, the parking brake pedal is often placed to the right of the accelerator pedal and is frequently distinguished by its vivid colour or distinctive form. Forklift operators can control each brake independently when the service and parking brakes are on different pedals, which can increase safety and lower the likelihood of accidents. The operator can use the parking brake to stop the forklift without mistakenly using the service brake, which could put extra strain on the brake shoes or pads.
