Key Responsibilities of a BOPT Operator:
Safe Operation: Safely operating the electric truck to move materials across inbound, storage, and dispatch areas.
Material Handling: Loading, unloading, and moving pallets efficiently in narrow aisles or tight spaces.
Equipment Maintenance: Checking battery levels, charging the machine, and performing routine inspections of wheels and hydraulic oil.
