Telehandler Forklift: An Interactive Guide
Book Thorough ExaminationOfficial Partner
In order to abide by both LOLER 98 and PUWER 98 and receive a CFTS-approved Thorough Examination, all parts of your telehandler forklift truck must be examined for signs of damage, wear and tear or malfunctions that can jeopardise the safety of the forklift operator and any bystanders.
However, some inspectors claim to offer a full Thorough Examination, but in reality are only offering the basic LOLER 98 checks. A fully accredited CFTS Thorough Examination will scrutinise all elements of your truck.
To help clarify what should be checked on your forklift when undergoing a Thorough Examination, we’ve outlined the checks for a telehandler forklift here in a helpful interactive guide. Book your telehandler forklift Thorough Examination today — call our team.

Fork arms can become weakened through abrasion and stress, so the arm strength must be monitored. They must not be cracked or damaged in any way that prevents them from complying with ISO 5057. The locations of the forks and their end stops are also checked.
