Forklift Man Baskets
Forklift man baskets are OSHA-compliant personnel platforms designed to safely lift workers using a forklift when aerial lifts are not practical. When properly secured and used with fall protection, they provide a safe solution for maintenance, repairs, and elevated access. Koke Inc. manufactures forklift man baskets in the USA to meet ANSI and OSHA safety requirements.
Koke personnel work platforms meet OSHA 1926.602 & ANSI B56.1 rules and requirements for a forklift man basket. ANSI B56.1 Section 7.37 provides details on rules and regulations regarding baskets.
Our forklift man baskets are designed to lift personnel in the air with any popular forklift model
The safety forklift man basket features a diamond tread plate floor, 42” high tubular sides, front latching door, 60” high mesh enclosed backing, 4” high kick plate and provisions for a safety harness hook-up. Full-length fork pockets provide added safety and strength to the safety man basket. A safety chain secures the man basket to the forklift. All safety baskets are painted yellow for high visibility.
