It was found that the employer did not have adequate safety measures in place and no safe system for handling with break-downs.
When searching for second hand forklifts in and around Cumbria bear in mind that while it is very expensive to buy a new battery for an electric forklift, you are in effect buying five years worth of fuel.

Whilst looking for second hand forklifts in and around Cumbria you may be interested to know that a manufacturing company was fined £30,000 when a young employee was pinned against a wall and killed instantly.
