What is the best way to handle an uneven load on a forklift? Tilt the load against the backrest. If the load is unstable, lift the load slightly first, then carefully tilt it back so that the load stays tight against the backrest. If it's a stable load and secure on the pallet, tilt first, then lift. Once the load is lifted, lower it to a safe traveling height. What is the correct position when picking up a load? Keep the load close to the waist. The load should be kept close to the body for as long as possible...
