Does anybody have an effective program to lock out an electrical/ battery operated lift truck, walkie, or sideloader lift? Our policies dictate that "tag only" is unnacceptable and locking the battery only deters the use of the vehicle since they could just change the battery. The problem being that these vehicles were not designed to be locked out. Our company is very safety concious, however, so a physical means to lock out is required. We need to try to do this without spending a lot of money on costly modifications. We have determined a couple of "shade tree" ways to do this, but I was curious if anyone had run into this issue before and what was done about it. Thanks in advance.
