1. Dear forklift operators, lady and gentlemen.

2. In the course of your training you have proven

3. that you have mastered a forklift in theory as well as in practice.

4. I therefore take pleasure in notifying you

5. that you have all passed the exam.

6. I would now like to hand out your drivers' licenses

7. for internal factory operation to you.

8. We'll start off with... Mr Bassek.

9. That's Klaus. Klaus has just successfully passed his examination

10. to operate motor-driven ground conveyance vehicles.

11. In plain English: forklifts.

12. He is now one of over 37.000 specially trained and qualified employees

13. in Germany who are completely justified

14. in calling themselves forklift operators.

15. Good morning, Klaus. Now for the serious part:

16. Your first day as a forklift operator can begin.

17. What is the very first thing a forklift operator does?

18. an all round check. Because safely working equipment

19. is the basic prerequisite for working safely.

20. Are the brakes in order?

21. Does the lifting gear function perfectly?

22. How do things look with leeway for steering? ls everything okay?

23. Well then, let's get going. Clear to start!

24. Separate vehicle routes and footpaths have been laid out

25. for everyone's safety, especially at entrances and exits to the hall.

26. But watch your step! Unfortunately there are fellow workers

27. who stray from the prescribed footpaths time and again,

28. thus endangering themselves and others, too.

29. My, that was what we call a close call!

30. That's why: Even when vehicle routes and footpaths are separated,

31. always keep an eye out for pedestrians.

32. Ah, a colleague is already waiting!

33. Morning, Klaus! Congratulations on the forklift license!

34. - Thanks a lot! - I have to get to Consignment 16.

35. Can you give me a quick lift?

36. But Klaus, you know very well: Lifting people

37. - on the fork tines is not permitted. - No, sorry, I can't do that.

38. - It's too dangerous. - Man, use your eyes!

39. All we do is take this pallet here and the whole thing's secured!

40. Ah, his colleague has found a solution.

41. But it's not according to regulations, either. Just the opposite.

42. No sooner said than done. The pallet tips over.

43. Loss of balance. Crash.

44. That's why: Never lift people on the fork tines.

45. When special assignments are called for, use a specially secured bucket lift.

46. So Klaus, now it's time for us to stack the consignment

47. into the high bay properly. Bring the forklift into position

48. in front of the area to be stacked, insert the fork tines

49. and lift the load.

50. Say, have you seen my knife here anywhere?

51. No.

52. - Where the blazes have I put it? - Then slowly drive forward...

53. and set the load down.

54. Lunch!

55. Break, mate!

56. Well, Klaus, let's get back to work.

57. What? Won't run, will it? Let me have a go. I know my way around them.

58. One second, Klaus. Don't you remember?

59. Maintenance work and repairs are only allowed to be done by qualified staff.

60. Don't you fiddle about, and don't let others fiddle about, either.

61. What's with you? 'Cause of a little thing like that?

62. After all, we're not born with two left hands, are we?

63. That's why: Never try to repair technical malfunctions yourself.

64. Report the malfunction you've determined to your superior.

65. They'll request knowledgeable staff to take care of it.

66. So, the forklift's working again. Now we're off to the next consignment.

67. Right, Klaus. Particularly when the danger exists that objects could slide,

68. it's important that the load

69. is distributed equally across the fork tines.

70. But Klaus, don't you agree that you'd have to secure a load like that

71. additionally against sliding or falling?

72. Ouch!

73. That's why: Always secure anything that could easily start to slide.

74. At best by buckling it down using special tension belts and cords.

75. Shit!

76. Especially at metal-processing facilities there are often areas

77. with increased levels of noise. In areas like that,

78. wearing appropriate ear protectors is an absolute must.
