Good morning everyone, at least it is here in Wisconsin. After reading this I printed it off and talked to our head fleet maitenance mechanic and he said that it is extremely unlikely that it could be over ridden by shifting from reverse to forward very rapidly. If it does there is a malfunction in the system somewhere. With that said we also agree that either the lift truck operators have way too much time on their hands to be trying ways to override the system, no matte what they are doing, or someone has given them the access codes to make the changes which should be a strict no - no, as we are talking sfaety issues here and if they are overriding the system in other means, this could be over riding the warranty as well. I would have the manager give AN EFFECTIVE NOW WARNING and let it be known, if the employee responsible is caught making these alterations, immediate termination will be the result.
