5 Most Common Forklift Truck Licence (LF) Sample Questions & Answers

Preview 5 practice questions with answers and explanations that name their source.

Sample Question 1 of 5Visual Pre-Start

What is the first step an operator must take before using a forklift at the start of a shift?

ADrive it to the work area so any problems show up under working conditions.
BLift a test load to check the hydraulic system before inspecting anything else.
CCarry out the pre-start inspection and record any defects in the logbook.
Answer & Source:

Pre-start checks are done before the forklift is used, and any damage or defects are reported and recorded (TLILIC0003 PC 2.6). Test-driving or test-lifting first means using a machine that may be faulty.

Sample Question 2 of 5Tyres & Wheels

What should an operator look for when inspecting forklift tyres during the pre-start check?

AOnly the tread depth, because tyre pressure is set at the annual service.
BOnly whether the tyres match the type shown on the data plate.
CWear or damage, and correct pressure on pneumatic tyres.
Answer & Source:

The pre-start check covers wheels and tyres for damage and, where applicable, correct inflation (TLILIC0003 performance evidence; NT WorkSafe checklist: tyres - check all for wear or damage, and pressure).

Sample Question 3 of 5Mast & Lift Chains

During the pre-start check of the mast, which finding means the lift chains need attention before the forklift is used?

AA light film of oil or grease on the chains.
BSigns of wear or damage to the chains or mast guides.
CA little dust on the outside of the mast channels.
Answer & Source:

The mast check is for signs of wear to the lift chains and guides. A defect that makes the forklift unsafe means isolating and tagging it out and reporting it, not carrying on.

Sample Question 4 of 5Fork Arms (Tynes)

When the horizontal thickness of a fork arm heel is worn to more than 10% less than its vertical thickness, what must happen?

AThe fork arms may stay in use if loads are kept under half of the rated capacity.
BThe fork arms must be replaced.
CThe fork arms may stay in use until the next scheduled service.
Answer & Source:

SafeWork NSW states that fork arms worn beyond 10% must be replaced. Dragging the heel on the floor causes this wear.

Sample Question 5 of 5Data Plate & Markings

What does the load capacity data plate on a forklift show?

AThe operator licence class needed and the date of the last service.
BThe forklift model number, which indicates its lifting capacity.
CThe load it can lift at different mast positions, and with each attachment.
Answer & Source:

Load capacity data plates detail the load each forklift can safely lift at different mast orientations or with an attachment. The model number painted on the side must not be mistaken for the capacity.
