The Occupational Safety and Health Administration or OSHA require that anyone using a counterbalanced forklift receive lecture style or classroom training. They also require that a supervised driving program is finished as well as periodic refresher training. There is no minimum time requirement for the classroom training or supervised driving. Moreover, there is no frequency mandated for the refresher training either.
A counterbalanced forklift balances its cargo utilizing the weight of the truck. The forks on a lift truck are in a fixed position; they go down and up and do not turn. The forks run parallel to the forklift's body. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration require that drivers who would be using counterbalanced forklifts on the job be properly trained on the trucks while being in the environment which they would be utilizing them.
Training either lecture style or in a classroom would provide forklift and operator information for the truck you would be driving. Most training will include certain aspects such as the weight and load capacity, height, how to fuel or charge the forklift. It includes how to gauge the time on the engine as well as any forklift specific safety information like for example where to stand when walking around the truck. Either written and/or oral testing is part of the classroom training. There is no minimum time requirement for the training.
The operator of a forklift will have to learn to drive the machine while being supervised. The supervised driving has to take place in an environment that resembles the current environment which the driver works in. This atmosphere must include the kind of terrain she will be traveling on, have similar surrounding structures close by, and the same vehicle and pedestrian traffic nearby also. There is no required minimum number of hours the operator has to drive while being supervised.
