• Only handle stable, safely arranged loads that are within the truck’s rated capacity.

• Keep a clear view of your travel path, and drive in reverse if the load obstructs your view.

• Never allow riders, unless there is a safe place for them to ride.

• Always keep arms and legs within the truck.

• Obey speed limits and slow down for wet floors and turns.

• Sound the horn and slow down at cross aisles or where vision is restricted.

• Maintain a safe distance from other vehicles, and never pass another traveling in your same direction.
