Material handling equipment refers to a diverse array of machinery, tools, and systems used in the movement, storage, control, and protection of materials, goods, and products throughout the manufacturing, distribution, warehousing, and logistics processes. This equipment is designed to facilitate the efficient, safe, and organized handling of materials, reducing manual labour, minimizing product damage, and optimizing productivity. This book examines the diverse world of material handling equipment, offering in-depth coverage of forklifts, order pickers, telehandlers, elevating work platforms, reach stackers, truck trailer side loaders, and pushback tugger trucks. With a focus on practicality and safety, each section delves into the uses, key components, operating principles, preparation for operations, operational practices, safe operation, and finalizing operations of these essential machines. Additionally, the book introduces vital skills and knowledge required for operating an aircraft push-out tug, including conducting pre-operational checks, operating the tug, and conducting post-operational checks. It also covers the safe operation of forklift trucks, order picking forklift trucks, telehandlers, boom-type elevating work platforms, side loaders, and pushback tractors, emphasizing planning, preparation, execution, and cleanup phases of the work or task. Whether you're a novice or an experienced operator, this book provides invaluable insights and guidance for operating these critical pieces of equipment safely and efficiently.
