When dismounting a forklift, there are several specific things to take into account. When dismounting for example, make sure to never jump from it and to face the vehicle. Maintain a 3-point stance, that means to consistently have one foot and both hands or vice-versa in contact with the equipment. Be sure to wear oil resistant and non slippery shoes as correct protective shoes can definitely help to keep you safe. Do not wear loose clothes or dangling jewelry, since these items might become caught. Wear the correct kind of clothing. Make sure the the floor and the area surrounding the lift truck is free of fluid or debris which could potentially result in a dangerous slip.
