Forklift Load Testing

Forklift accidents do happen! And, if your forklift has not been load tested, YOU could face legal and criminal charges!

Action Equipment Company ensures that forklifts ARE legal with our load test service!

The Driven Machinery Act* states that annual load testing of forklifts is compulsory. It also states that a forklift must be examined every 6 months and a full report kept. Load testing must also be carried out after any repairs and maintenance work on masts, carriages, chains, lift and tilt cylinders.
