Truck Mounted Forklift - Frequently Asked Questions

What is a truck mounted forklift?

A truck mounted forklift, or TMF for short, is a category of equipment used to load or unload heavy materials during onsite deliveries. Most significantly, a Truck mounted forklift "mounts" to the back of a cargo carrying transport vehicle. It can easily be transported from site to site.

Do you need a license to drive a truck mounted forklift?

No, but truck mounted forklifts fall under OSHA's guidelines for Powered Industrial Trucks (PIT). While there is no specific requirement for an motor vehicle license, OSHA does require initial and periodic training and (re)evaluation according to OSHA 1910.178(l).

Is a truck mounted forklift a vehicle or equipment?

A truck mounted forklift is an industrial vehicle categorized as a powered industrial truck (PIT). They are used to move various materials over short distance. A typical forklift consists of a small truck frame with an attached mast assembly that raises and lowers the load. Moffett truck mounted forklifts have the added capability of being able to be mounted to the transport truck.

Is there an age requirement to operate a truck mounted forklift?

Yes, according to OSHA, "It is a violation of Federal law for anyone UNDER 18 years of age to operate a truck mounted forklift or for anyone OVER 18 years of age who is not properly trained and certified to do so."

Can I operate a truck mounted forklift on the road?

Generally, yes, when used for loading and unloading materials.

Remote Ground Mount Seat Belt Alarm Full Single-Side Off-Loading Four Way Travel Nationwide Service Team Regional Parts Distribution Industry Leading Warranty Hiab HiConnect™

Remote Ground Mount

Remote Ground Mount (RGM) allows the operator to completely mount or dismount the MOFFETT without the need to climb onto or off of an elevated truck mounted forklift. With up to a 25' range, the wireless remote control allows the operator to stand away from the machine and traffic during the mounting and dismounting process. This means staying out of the line of traffic or other jobsite hazards while giving optimal visibility during the mounting/dismounting process.

Seat Belt Alarm

The seat belt drive-interlock system now has additional alarm options to improve operator safety. The machine is now fitted with alarms, which trigger if the seat belt is not fastened and/or if the side door is not closed in the correct order. The seat presence alarm system is designed to help ensure operators wear the seat belt properly by invoking a 15 second delay if the seatbelt is fastened before the operator enters the seat.

Full Single-Side Off-Loading

Full capacity, single-side offloading is achieved using MOFFETT's Pantograph and patented Lift Assist System™ that allows the forks to reach completely across the deck of the truck or trailer and lift or place a full capacity load, while still maintaining the tilt and side shift functionality of the mast. This eliminates the need to move the truck and trailer from one side of the road to the other to complete the offloading process.

Four Way Travel

Four way steering allows the truck mounted forklift to operate safely in 4 directions: forward and back as well as left and right. This allows the operator to transport long loads in a much smaller space by carrying the load parallel to travel, eliminating the need to find alternate routes due to obstructions.
