to all the people using (container)reach stackers,overseas.
(i,m in oz)
are you operating on forklift tickets or did you have to upgrade to for instance, a non slewing crane licence.

Yes....no prior licensing for reachstacker operators. There are licences for the smaller forklifts, but we don't require them - we do train them of course. I'm working on getting my accreditation so they can get something official. I need reachstacker operators in a BAD way right now - we just got a Hyster Yardmaster II and we have a 2 year old Kalmar DRF-450 which is also a good machine.

Hi Finn,
Sure I will go to the resume section and look you up. Actually we trained up an Ozzie on the Kalmar DRF-450 - he was on a working vacation.
Or email me at stephen dot harvey at ray-mont dot com
