Mobile Plant - daily operator checklist

Select Mobile Plant type
- Telehandler
- Forklift
- EWP
- Scissor Lift
- Skid Steer
- Excavator
- Concrete Pump Truck
- Crane
External condition
- Safe
- Requires attention
- unsafe to operate reported and tagged out.
- N/A
Select the correct attachment for the task
Fork arms (or attachment) in good condition
Visual checks on fork arms (or other attachment) to ensure that they are undamaged, not distorted and are securely attached to the carriage plate.
Visual check of fork tine/jib carriage-plate for cracks
visual check on the carriage plate to ensure that it is in good condition, not distorted and that any quick-hitch fittings are in good condition, no visual cracks and correctly latched.
Telescopic boom
A visual check to ensure that there is no obvious damage or distortion, that all warning decals are clear and in place and, where there are visible hydraulic hoses and pipes, that they are undamaged and free to track the boom. A working check to be conducted later.
Hydraulics (pipes, union, hoses) If any leaks are present it must be tagged out of service
A visual check on all other hydraulic pipes, unions and hoses to ensure that there is no damage, leakage or distortion likely to lead to breaks, etc. where visible, a check on hydraulic rams to ensure that there is no rust or scoring likely to lead to leakage past seals, etc
check engine oil, brake fluid and coolant level
Wheels & tyres
A visual check to ensure that all wheel nuts are present without signs of “working”, that there is no leakage from hubs, that no foreign bodies have become trapped in the wheel mechanism, that types are in good condition with no chunking, splits or signs of apparent structural breakdown. This could include a periodic check on tyre pressures.
This would be a general walk around to note any surface damage, light lenses damaged, mirrors in place and adjusted, decals clearly displayed, etc. Also included would be any moveable panel being secured
Cab & cab doors /windows/ROPS/
An inspection of all cab windows and door for cleanliness and any evidence of damage, cab door lock effective and secure, and with particular attention on the window alongside the main boom to be in position, secure, clean and undamaged.

Internal & operational Checks

Operating cab clean with no loose items in cabin
This check is about the floor of the cab and the access to it including mounting steps, rubber mats, floor area, etc, and clearing any rubbish, mud, stones, paper, refreshment refuse, etc that could block the full operation of any of the controls.
Registration label and plate if used on public road
Operator’s seat & restraint
This is a check on the seat itself, its condition and adjustability, and any presence microswitch control that might be installed. Also included would be the condition of the restraint system and its fastenings, as necessary including the inertia lock.
Please take a photo of the Data Plate and Load Charts (do not use plant is load chart is not easily accessible & readable)
Maximum boom length
Maximum lift capacity at extended length & height
Once in the seat, the operator can check the load charts and rated capacity information for condition, content and clarity.
Warning lights and instruments (must have a operational flashing light that can be seen from all directions)
Once started up, the operator can then check warning lights, hour meters, instruments for correct operation and any fault codes being shown. A round check of all lights and beacons for operation.
A check reversing beeper
Hydraulic controls
The operator should operate all hydraulic controls over their full range, noting any obvious defects, rough operation, ability to reach full extension, which will show that the system is fully operational . The operation of the longitudinal load moment indicator or control can be checked during the above process.
Tyers - inflated, tread on tyre, no deep cuts, no canvas or steel belts visible, no bulges in side walls
Drive & braking (All systems)
The operator should check all brake systems in both travel directions and that drive is satisfactorily delivered in all modes.
Steering (All modes)
Finally, the steering should be operated, while the machine is moving in both directions, over its full steering lock in all modes (i.e. front-wheel, four-wheel and crab-steer).
Is load operations within rated capacity of the Telehandler
Are the following conditions present on site
please add information
Select control measures in place
Minimum photos: until from all sides, interior cabin, hydraulic lines, forks, backrest, jib attachments, tyres, flashing light
External condition
- Safe
- Requires attention
- unsafe to operate reported and tagged out.
- N/A
The correct attachment for the task is selected
Fork arms (or attachment) in good condition

Visual check of fork tine/jib carriage-plate for cracks
Visual check on the carriage plate to ensure that it is in good condition, not distorted and that any quick-hitch fittings are in good condition, no visual cracks and correctly latched.
A visual check of mast and ram to ensure that there is no obvious damage or distortion, that all warning decals are clear and in place and, where there are visible hydraulic hoses and pipes, that they are undamaged and free to track the mast. A working check to be conducted later.
Hydraulics (pipes, union, hoses) If any leaks are present it must be tagged out of service
A visual check on all other hydraulic pipes, unions and hoses to ensure that there is no damage, leakage or distortion likely to lead to breaks, etc. where visible, a check on hydraulic rams to ensure that there is no rust or scoring likely to lead to leakage past seals, etc

A visual check to ensure that all wheel nuts are present without signs of “working”, that there is no leakage from hubs, that no foreign bodies have become trapped in the wheel mechanism, tyers are in good condition with no chunking, splits or signs of apparent structural breakdown. This could include a periodic check on tyer pressures.
