T1 Moffett Forklift Truck Novice Course Details
Who is the T1 Moffett Forklift Truck Novice Course for?
The RTITB accredited T1 Moffett Forklift Truck Novice Training Course is designed for those with no, or very limited, experience of using a T1 Moffett Forklift Truck.
T1 Moffett Forklift Truck Novice Course – Eligibility
The RTITB and Health & Safety Executive (HSE) have set guidance and some eligibility criteria for attending these T1 Moffett Forklift Truck Novice Training Courses.
T1 Moffett Forklift Truck Novice Course – Eligibility Criteria
Experience Level – This T1 Moffett Forklift Truck Novice Course is for those with no, or very limited, experience of using a T1 Moffett Forklift Truck.
Age – To attend this T1 Moffett Forklift Truck Novice Course and operate a T1 Moffett Truck in the workplace you must be at least school leaving age (16). Please note, subject to a risk assessment, if you are under the age of 18 you may need to be supervised in the workplace when using a T1 Moffett Forklift Truck until you reach the age of 18. In addition, no person under the age of 18 can use a T1 Moffett Forklift Truck on docks, or ports.
Language – This T1 Moffett Forklift Truck Novice Course has multiple classroom-based theory lessons throughout. A written theory test is also mandatory. In addition, the safe use of a T1 Moffett Forklift Truck requires that the operator reads and understands any safety signs, local safety notices, and can thoroughly understand the manufacturer’s operator handbook for a T1 Moffett Forklift Truck.
The practical training aspect of this T1 Moffett Forklift Truck Novice Course, and the mandatory practical test of operating skills, involves continuous verbal instructions that the trainee must be able to understand and act upon in a safe manner.
Therefore, good comprehension of English language and literacy are important for attending this T1 Moffett Forklift Truck Novice Course.
Note – In extreme cases, an accredited translator can be used for the purposes of testing. The chosen translator must not be a candidate on the T1 Moffett Forklift Truck Novice Course and must not alter the sense of any of the answers given by the candidate. If required, please seek legal advice on the use of an accredited translator.
Medical – There is currently no legislation or clear medical guidance available in relation to the specific use of a T1 Moffett Forklift Truck. In general, we would apply the HSE principle that each person’s fitness for operating a T1 Moffett Truck should be judged individually to ensure that people with disabilities are not disadvantaged but competence in an emergency must always be considered.
We would therefore generally follow the health guidance issued by the DVLA for Group 1 entitlement if the need arises to assess capabilities for operating a T1 Moffett Truck.
Essentially, if you are not, or would not be restricted in obtaining a UK driving licence, then there should be no restrictions in operating a T1 Moffett Forklift Truck in normal circumstances.
Note – All trainees are required to sign a medical declaration at the beginning of these T1 Moffett Truck Novice Courses.

From all potential parts/components of a T1 Moffett Truck, there are 14 safety critical mandatory parts and components that must be identified and discussed during this pre-use inspection test.

Exceeding the maximum permitted penalty points will result in a referral (test failed). A re-test will be required after a period of remedial training. Your instructor will inform you of the maximum points permitted.
The T1 Moffett Truck practical skills test is also a time restricted test, with penalty points incurred for exceeding set times.

Medical – There is currently no legislation or clear medical guidance available in relation to the specific use of a T1 Moffett Truck. In general, we would apply the HSE principle that each person’s fitness for operating a Moffett Mounty should be judged individually to ensure that people with disabilities are not disadvantaged but competence in an emergency must always be considered.
We would therefore generally follow the health guidance issued by the DVLA for Group 1 entitlement if the need arises to assess capabilities for operating a T1 Moffett Truck.
Essentially, if you are not, or would not be restricted in obtaining a UK driving licence, then there should be no restrictions in operating a T1 Moffett Truck in normal circumstances.
Note – All trainees are required to sign a medical declaration at the beginning of these T1 Moffett Truck Experienced Operator Courses.
Driving Licence – You do not need a driving licence (car licence) to attend this T1 Moffett Truck Experienced Operator Course or to operate a T1 Moffett Truck on business premises (unless it is taken onto a public road).

A Brief History of the Moffett Mounty VMLT
Did you know this about the Moffett Truck?
MOFFETT, part of Cargotec’s Hiab business area, celebrated its 70th anniversary in 2015.
“This is a significant year for MOFFETT as we celebrate our 70th anniversary with our customers, drivers, and the global MOFFETT team,” says Keith Quigley, Senior Vice President, Truck Mounted Forklifts, Hiab. “We invented the truck-mounted forklift truck concept, and we pride ourselves that throughout our history we have always worked closely with our customers to provide bespoke solutions to support their businesses.”
Forerunner in invention
Founded by Cecil Moffett in 1945 in Clontibret, Ireland, the company began as a small engineering workshop producing agricultural machinery for the family farm and other local businesses.
In 1986, the company revolutionised the transportation industry with the invention and launch of the MOFFETT Mounty, a compact 3-wheeled forklift truck that could be transported on the back of almost any delivery truck or trailer, and took up virtually no loading space.
This truck-mounted forklift was unique because, whilst it did not replace the traditional warehouse-based forklift truck, it could perform the same functions of lifting, carrying, loading, and offloading.
With the MOFFETT Mounty, the transport operator could, for the first time, schedule his own loading and unloading, without needing additional assistance. He could offload goods to precisely where the customer wanted them, which reduced damage, and because deliveries were much faster, he could schedule more deliveries per day, with fewer vehicles, and therefore lower costs. The product was, not surprisingly, a success in both Europe and the USA.
Today, MOFFETT is sold in 45 countries, and offers specialist machines, with an extensive range of options, for many industries, including building, gas, poultry, agriculture, recycling, beverage, road distribution, fire and rescue, and utilities. And, characteristically, should a customer have a unique lifting and carrying challenge, MOFFETT will work with them to design a truck to meet their specific requirements.
Dedicated team in Ireland
MOFFETT’s factory in Dundalk, County Louth, Ireland, is the centre of excellence for truck-mounted forklift truck research and development. The 227 employees operate a ‘never-ending product improvement’ policy, offering leading-edge solutions with a customer-focused mind-set.
“We have a passionate team at MOFFETT,” says Carl Gustaf Göransson, Senior Vice President, Sales and Markets. “We continuously invest in innovative technology to meet our customers’ logistics and material handling challenges, and I am proud that we have the engineering excellence in-house to be able to adapt our products to whatever needs they have, both now and in the future.”
As an example, in 2013, MOFFETT launched the E-series-ProFutureTM, the world’s first lithium-ion powered truck-mounted forklift, designed to operate in urban environments where access is restricted and low noise and no emissions are demanded.
“We value our close partnerships with our customers, and want to recognise proud MOFFETT users around the world. As part of our 70th anniversary celebrations, we will be hosting a number of events, including a MOFFETT World Championship, fundraising for charity, and we are planning some exciting anniversary sales offers, too” concludes Quigley.
