TLILIC0003 - Licence to operate a forklift truck

Central Australian Driving School offers Nationally Recognised Forklift training and licensing.

This unit covers the outcomes required for the operation of a powered industrial truck (forklift) equipped with a mast and an elevated load carriage with fork arms or other attachment for licensing purposes.

This course covers a large practical component regarding the lifting and relocation of loads using a conventional forklift. Participants will learn to interpret and clarify work requirements, access and apply safety information and procedures throughout operations, fit and remove attachments in accordance to manufacturer's specifications and coordinate activities to ensure a safe workplace. The unit is delivered in a 2 day format, with group sizes typically ranging between 6-8 people

Pre-requisites

Participants must be at least 18 years of age. Proof of ID will be required on the day: drivers licence, passport or over 18's card.
