All the customers reach truck's I look after, the operator's are trained to fully tilt back on the forks loaded or unloaded when travelling, this also helps stop wear on the fork's when unloaded ( none of mine drag along the floor, chains always adjusted correctly )

All the newer reach truck's I look after also go a lot slower forks first OR with reach extended to encourage the driver to operate the truck correctly - these features can be turned off but the management & trainers wanted it left switched on.

Fact of the week
According to studies published in the English Journal of Medicine, the impact of daylight savings is revealed by a 24% increase in heart attacks on the Monday following the spring shift forward. When clocks move back in autumn, heart attacks drop by about 21%, suggesting that loss of sleep is an important driver.
