Highlights of contestants

There are three steps to master the practical operation of forklift truck: the first is to follow the stroke of the number 8 to go with water on pallets, which examines the stability and operation specification of forklift truck driver. The second is to follow the stroke of “I” to stack and move, which aims to examine the accuracy of the forklift operator’s stacking skill, whether pressing the line or crossing the line. The last step is to drive the forklift to its original position. The driver is required to stop the forklift according to the relevant operating procedures and accurately park it in the original position. These three steps are actually the daily work of forklift operators. Only reasonable operation specifications can ensure the assembly efficiency of goods.
