What is the gear cage?
The
forklift cage is sometimes known as a work platform or a basket of man, because it allows a person to be safely lifted with a fork blade for a forklift in height high above the ground. The cage with a forklift is almost always made of very thick metal, such as steel, and has a flat floor with walls or railing on all sides of the platform. The back of the cage will often contain a high back that protects the worker from lifting mechanisms of forklift, and the front of the cage will contain a door or gate that allows the worker to come safely. This is done by moving the fork blade into the pockets on the underside of the forklift cage. The blades slide into the pockets until the blade is ground onto the rear wall of the cage and the forklift itself is provided on site using strings. Once the forklift is in place and chains are secured, the cage can be raised safely. The worker can enter the cage and close the gate behind, you zajisTit prevention of falls or other types of accidents.
When a cage worker, he usually wear a safety harness that can be attached to the walls of the forklift with a carabiner or hook. This prevents any accidents such as falls while the person is raised in a cage. It is likely that the cage will also contain tool trays or other work surfaces, although many cages do not. The walls or railing of the cages are usually set to the hip height, although the walls can be higher for greater safety. The lower walls allow the worker to bend when working forward.
The construction of the gear cage must be exceptionally strong to prevent crushing of accidents. Resistant metals are usually used to prevent the worker's injury if the elevator is too hard to press the cage against a solid object. The Cage floor usually has some texture, either in the form of adhesive strips or diamond plating to allowBetter traction while walking or otherwise moving in a cage. The open railings allow the worker to slip the carabiner along the entire length of the rail, which in turn allows more mobility.
