Powered Industrial Truck Training Topics Covered:
- What are the Powered Industrial Truck certification process steps, and why are these important? (safety procedures, information on how to operate the specific truck at your facility, and finally, a supervised driving evaluation session)

The Seven Classes of Powered Industrial Trucks:
- Class 1 – These are the common forklift or counterbalance lifts that are powered by electric motors (These include not only counterbalanced lift trucks but also sit-down rider tow tractors, stand-up rider forklifts, and three-wheeled electric forklifts)

- Class 5 – These are forklifts that have pneumatic tires, which allow them to be driven on rough or unpaved surfaces (Rough terrain forklifts and container handlers are examples of Class V Powered Industrial Trucks)
- Class 6 – These are tractor-like machines that don’t “lift” loads but tow them. (Class VI examples include tugger trains, burden carriers, and more)
- Class 7 These are rough terrain forklifts designed to operate on rough, uneven, or unpaved surfaces. (Examples of Class VII Powered Industrial Trucks include rough terrain container handlers, telehandlers, telescopic boom rough terrain forklifts, straight mast rough terrain lifts, and variable reach rough terrain lifts)
