Industrial Truck Standards Development Foundation

I was researching information for elevating personnel with forklifts and found a reference to Industrial Truck Standards Development Foundation. The site offers free downloads of a number of ANSI standards it has developed for design and use of powered trucks. A number of these standards are cited by OSHA when issuing General Duty Clause citations for Powered Trucks in areas not specifically covered by 29 CFR 1910.178. They are useful tools for the safety professional.
