I know of an end user (that division of a fortune 1000 manufacturer) who always keep the forks slightly tilted forward. they are also very careful, and drive at a max of 4 MPH, and have no lost time accidents in over 6 years. there is just no way they were going to listen to me, when I told them that was just plain wrong.
Who and how can you argue with a 6 year accident free, 100+ employee and 35+ sitdown forklift operation with a safety record like that.
