Many new and experienced electric forklift operators tend to overlook the importance of reasonable speed control in daily operations, which may bring unnecessary hidden risks to the whole working area. The question "qual a velocidade" that frequently comes up in daily on-site communication refers to the core speed judgment standard that every operator needs to master clearly before taking up the post.

First of all, operators need to clarify the reference speed range for different working scenarios. In enclosed indoor storage areas with dense pedestrian flow and neatly stacked goods, the recommended traveling speed should be kept at a low level to reserve enough reaction space for sudden emergencies. For open outdoor factory areas with wide roads and few passing personnel, the traveling speed can be appropriately increased on the premise of confirming the surrounding safety status. When passing through corners, gateways, material receiving areas and areas with unclear sight, operators need to slow down in advance and honk to remind surrounding personnel to avoid collision risks.
Secondly, operators should adjust the actual traveling speed dynamically according to the real-time operation conditions. When the forklift is carrying heavy loads, or the goods are lifted to a high position, the center of gravity of the whole vehicle will shift, and excessive speed will easily lead to unstable vehicle body. When the road surface is wet, slippery or with a certain slope, the braking distance of the electric forklift will be longer than usual, so operators need to reduce the traveling speed appropriately to ensure stable operation.

Unreasonable high speed operation will not only easily lead to cargo side slip, vehicle collision and other safety accidents, but also increase the wear of vehicle walking components, and shorten the normal service cycle of related parts. Operators are not allowed to adjust the speed limit parameters of the vehicle without professional guidance, to avoid potential safety hazards caused by non-standard modification.
