Question 46
When traveling up a ramp without a load on the forks, the correct practice is to have the forks pointing down the ramp for safety and stability (to prevent the forklift from tipping backward as it ascends, the weight distribution is better with forks down).
Hanging a leg outside the operator’s compartment while carrying a wide load is unsafe as it can lead to injury from obstacles, loss of control, or entanglement. So the answer is False.
Slippery or wet floors reduce traction, so driving slowly and avoiding them (if possible) is a safety measure to prevent accidents. Thus, the statement is True.
