$20.00

Overview

The vertical-mast Sit-Down Counterbalance (SDCB) forklift, commonly known as a conventional forklift, is the workhorse of today’s warehouse, distribution facility, and factory. Every day and in practically every industry, forklift operators from around the world use them to safely and efficiently load, move, and unload thousands of tons of product. While typically found inside warehouses and factories, they are also adept in outdoor settings where they can operate on smooth concrete or asphalt surfaces. Like their rough-terrain forklift cousins, SDCB forklifts have several distinguishing features and hazards that operators need to understand and appreciate before attempting to use them on the job.
