How do you drive a forklift?

with the steering wheel

Like a car in reverse

Foot to the floor all of the time, bang shift from forward to reverse. Then again we have a sr20de+t in ours

Neat. The Toyota truck I use sometimes has a 4AGE in it.

Depends on the forklift.

What does it have the other times?

It's kinda like playing vidya. Just make sure not to run over the janitor.

How do you drive a boom lift?

are these good for jousting?

Steers with the rear so cornering is sharp as shit and you have to constantly be aware of your ass end because you can seriously fuck somebody up. Other than that and the 3 levers for the forks, up down/left right/tilt up and tilt down, its pretty much just an auto go cart death machine.

It's actually really easy.

Reverse back a little, shift into forward and floor it. Wheelspins for days.

By getting stuck at the dock because they didn't clear away the ice

No they're only good as a catapult

I don't. I got an education and a real job.

Any good for lobbing rotting carcasses into your enemie's fortress'?

drove them daily for a few years. find them scary as fuck to drive, mainly due to non fork lift drivers paying zero care around them and not realising how heavy/powerful they are.

Stopped driving them and switched to maintenance department to work on the automated ones that are taking over our plant and the industry. Dying breed OP.

Accurately and on special lines.

Omfg I kekd so hard I cried a little

Like a car but without clutch and the indicator is used for forward/reverse

Drove this one daily for 2 years before company went bankrupt, now I do a stock picker and its boring as fuck.

>put in reverse and floor it
>crank wheel hard in either direction
>smash into forward
>one wheel spinz on a dime as long as you got balls

Last day in the building we roasted the tires on all the lifts real good. I left a 30m smear of rubber on the floor going back towards the office. Good times.
