Document Summary

This Safe Work Procedure outlines the safe use, maintenance, and battery charging protocols for pallet stackers. Operators must always verify that the weight of the load does not exceed the stacker’s rated working load and ensure no person rides on the stacker. Pre-start checks include inspecting the battery, wheels, lifting mechanisms, and controls for proper function. Damaged or suspect equipment must not be used.

Operational precautions emphasize moving loads on smooth, level surfaces, carrying loads close to the ground, and avoiding sharp turns with elevated loads. Operators must wear high-visibility clothing and foot protection, and use lights and horns to warn others. Battery charging requires a ventilated area, adherence to manufacturer guidelines, and the use of eye and hand protection. Smoking and ignition sources must be avoided. These guidelines ensure the safe and efficient operation of pallet stackers.
