@derrick_r Only if you knew buddy, we do have IDS systems with built in checklist and is a joke, we use nothing but three wheel kits on doubles, and split wheel on triples, one of the biggest problems is that they transport a lot of water heavy pallets on cheap wood, and operators are no picking up pallets on the right spot and they are tearing up pallets like crazy. We try to do as much maintenance as we can, but we don't have a full time forklift mechanic, and we can barely keep up with damaged equipment. Batteries are all well kept, fuses only get blown when they get stuck on a pallet and start burning the drive tire. As far as making people accountable for checking forklifts, or reporting damage, managers aren't doing their job, and all operators got nothing but bad habits. Triples are tearing up pallets a lot but I know it comes down to the operators.

Fact of the week
The use of "hello" as a telephone greeting is attributed to Thomas Edison. He is said to have suggested it as a simpler alternative to other greetings, such as "Do I get you?" or "Are you there?".
