Security problems with truck-mounted forklift!!!

Hi Folks,

I have a big problem with truck-mounted forklifts. As you probably know the forklift is placed at the rear of the truck, which heavily compromises the driveability of the truck. It is also very tricky to mount and disassembly. I harmed myself already in doing this. It is also very copious because of the lost loading space for the weight that must be carried when the truck is empty. I would like to ask you if you have any idea how to solve these problems? I need some suggestions for alternative mounting possibilities to improve the driveability also.

Help :D

Truck-mounted forklifts pose significant security risks if not handled properly. Their operation requires strict adherence to safety protocols to prevent accidents and injuries. Issues such as unsecured loads, inadequate training, and improper maintenance can lead to disastrous consequences. Employers must prioritize comprehensive training and regular equipment inspections to mitigate these risks effectively.

this is very important vlog.
Addressing security concerns in truck-mounted forklifts is pivotal for workplace safety. Rigorous training, regular equipment maintenance, and adherence to operational guidelines mitigate risks. Employing robust access controls and anti-theft measures further enhances security, safeguarding both personnel and assets in the dynamic environment of material handling.

Sounds like you have too small of a truck or too short of a bed or the rear wheels are positioned too far forward. Can't really get specific as you don't provide enough information - forklift type, deliver truck, mounting type (manufacture's kit or homemade type). I've laoded and unload - Teledyne Princeton, Moffet & Navigators without issues & I am a sales type.

Truck mounted forklifts are commonly used here in the US and they travel with and without payloas (lumber, sod, bricks, roofing materials, etc.) at speeds well above any posted speed limit w/o issues - unless the brakes ain't too good.
