Wear appropriate protective clothing<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Forklift operators must wear appropriate safety clothing. These include a hard hat, safety shoes and reflective vest.<\/li>\n<li>Work clothes should be well-fitted. Do not sew loosely as they may get caught in the machine.<\/li>\n<li>Do not hold the steering wheel or gear lever with greasy hands.
