The Occupational Safety and Health Administration does require operators using a counterbalanced forklift to have received classroom or lecture style training. They additionally require that a periodic refresher training as well as a supervised driving course is finished. There is no minimum time requirement for the classroom training or supervised driving. In addition, there is no frequency mandated for the refresher training either.
The counterbalanced forklift's weight is utilized to balance its cargo using its own weight. The forklift forks are in a fixed position but can be lowered and raised to secure and transport loads. 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 correctly trained on the trucks while being in the environment that they would be using them.
Training either in a classroom or lecture style will provide forklift and operator information for the truck you would be operating. Most training would include several aspects such as the load and weight 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 where to stand when walking around the truck. Either oral and/or written 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 utilize the machine while being supervised. The supervised driving needs to take place in an environment that resembles the existing environment which the operator works in. This atmosphere must include the kind of terrain she will be traveling on, have the same surrounding structures nearby, and the same vehicle and pedestrian traffic nearby as well. There is no specific minimum number of hours the driver has to drive while being supervised.
