Hello,

I would like to ask for some advice on charging batteries on FLT's safely. Currently the charging area is in our Warehouse.

Would like to know how Operators should complete this task safely.

Your help and advice would be appreciated.

Katie

Hi Katie,

If you need any more help, let me know and I can send you a SSOW for battery changing that will give you some pointers. It will depend on the type of trucks you have as the methods for changing can vary, the suppler of the trucks/batteries is also a good port of call for information.
