I was a nissan forklift tech for 8 years. I moved on to control work n frequency inverter drives a few years ago. The problem I see with younger workers is they won't tough it out till they get good at something. you got to push through that rough learning curve to get the experience and $.
Hey man, I'm glad you put out these videos. I've been in the automotive industry for 8 years and an automotive technician for over 4 years now thinking this is the only highest-paying job in the Industry. I'm telling you man, after six different dealerships, it really takes a toll on you because of politics and competition. I only just stumbled across your video because someone I used to work with had mentioned about a company that's looking to hire technicians and the pay was unbelievably High. Right now I'm waiting for my second interview and in hopes to looking forward to making it a permanent career. Thanks again for the video.
Forklifts are stupid easy if you have general knowledge of electrical. Now, changing some parts can be difficult. They don’t make that part easy on you lol.
I interview for CAT service center today and I’m pretty excited. I went to school for industrial systems technology and worked a year at a large manufacturer and decided I wanted more autonomy, l like to work by myself. My dad was a forklift tech for over 40 years and always made a good wage so I decided it might be a good trade to start.
Just applied for a job in the field here near Atlanta. Should hear back next week! Thanks for the video gave me more of an idea of what I’d be doing day to day.
Thank you. Wouldn’t you know it I’m working on the exact same model of pallet jack with the same exact problem and you took care of it for me thank you
cool man!, yeah id like to see more of stuff like this for sure! seeing someone think and diagnose issues with things like this, we forget the world runs on machines like this, we average people dont see, but are why we live the quality of life we do and how we can get stuff shipped to us from the other side of the world for cheaps! I actually enjoy seeing how the world workes behind the scenes, the technology that we take for granted, indeed would love seeing all kinds of fork lifts, repairs, fascinating to me.
Very informative brother 👍🏽I’m a new facilities tech and they want to keep everything in-house. So I have to learn how to work on these, walkie stackers and walk behind and ride on scrubbers and ride fork lifts.
Very glad I found this video, I just graduated high school in May and was fortunate enough to go to a technical high school which opened up many job opportunities forklift tech being one of them. I’d just like to know is it worth, and what is it really like being a forklift tech. Thank you

Left the car industry after 10years then agriculture, now been in forklifts for 2 years and haven't looked back it is awsome
Yes pretty interesting I resealed a lift cylinder on a Nissan 5 truck , first time ever had someone guide me. I like learning new things
