Common hazards associated with pallet jack operation include falling objects (struck by hazards). Loads can fall, and operators can too. If you move a loaded pallet jack too quickly, over uneven floors, or on inclines, the load may topple. You could be injured if the load falls, and the load and/or the workplace may be damaged. Straining to move a stuck pallet jack or failing to maintain control on an incline can cause the operator to slip and fall. This lesson focuses on the safe operation of both manual and powered hydraulic pallet jacks.
