Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 004B Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.178(q)(7): Industrial trucks shall be examined before being placed in service, and shall not be placed in service if the examination shows any condition adversely affecting the safety of the vehicle. Such examination shall be made at least daily. Where industrial trucks are used on a round-the-clock basis, they shall be examined after each shift. Defects when found shall be immediately reported and corrected. (a) Inspection of forklifts are not being performed prior to being placed into service. Observation of Crown electric forklift (model # RM6000, serial # 1A443722) in operation, identified an exposed bare copper battery cable that was in contact with the metal battery housing of the forklift. This exposed employees to an electrical shock and electrical fire hazard.
