Counter Balance is a common type of forklift engineered to lift heavy loads and move through narrow aisles effortlessly. The heavy counterweight on the back keeps the rear wheels on the ground. The front wheels act as a fulcrum between the counterweight and the load. A typical counterbalance lift truck has a three-point suspension system. It forms the stability triangle base and allows seamless maneuvering on uneven floors. It has a straightforward mechanism. However, accidents can occur due to a lapse in judgment or inexperience. Surveys show that effective training programs improve lift truck operators’ safety and performance by as much as 70%. OSHA requires employers to give proper training to all their lift operators. It also states that only trained and authorized personnel can operate specific equipment.
