United Kingdom

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

Fork-lift trucks carrying one or more workers must be adapted or equipped to limit the risk of the fork-lift truck overturning, e.g.:

  • by the installation of an enclosure for the driver, or

  • by a structure preventing the fork-lift truck from overturning, or

  • by a structure ensuring that, if the fork-lift truck overturns, sufficient clearance remains between the ground and certain parts of the fork-lift truck for ride-on workers, or

  • by a structure restraining the workers on the driving seat so as to prevent them from being crushed by parts of the fork-lift truck which overturns.
