Lorry Mounted Forklift Truck Training (Moffett Training)
Vehicle Mounted Lift Trucks (also known as a Moffett truck) are mounted to the rear end of lorries, trucks or trailers. This allows the delivery driver who is responsible of delivering or picking goods on site to be able to use their Vehicle Mounted Lift Truck by disconnecting it off the transport. This allows efficiency on job, as the driver does not need to wait for site lift truck operators to load/unload as they can do it themselves.
The set up of this course is split into the three areas which are the Theory, Pre-Inspection and Practical. During the theory our instructors goes through the key relevant Health & Safety legislations, and the specific information regarding safety operation of the Vehicle Mounted Lift Truck. Pre-Inspection of the Vehicle Mounted Lift Truck helps delegates to identify the importance of carrying out checks before operating the truck, and the importance of reporting defects. And finally, the practical element focus is on practicing to operate the truck safely and correctly accordingly to what the task is.
