When a paper slip sheet breaks while trying to pull a load onto forks, the following steps should be taken:

Stop the forklift: Stop the forklift immediately to prevent any further damage to the load or to the equipment.

Assess the situation: Check the load to see if it is still secure and determine the cause of the paper slip sheet breaking.

Remove the broken paper: Carefully remove the broken slip sheet from the load and the forks.

Replace the slip sheet: If possible, replace the broken slip sheet with a new one or use an alternative method to secure the load, such as shrink wrap or pallet.

Resume operations: Once the load is secure, you can resume the operation, following proper safety procedures and making sure to inspect the equipment regularly to prevent future incidents.
