What this lesson covers
This lesson covers the OSHA rules for forklifts, slings and aerial lifts: when a truck counts as unattended, which truck fits which hazardous atmosphere, how and when slings are inspected, and what an aerial lift operator must and must not do. These are number-heavy rules that the exam tests directly and that prevent real load, tip-over and fall incidents.
