course (if required by the command). The next step of training is load handling. Instruct the trainee to approach a pallet, insert the forks into the pallet as far as they will go, lift, and move the pallet. The trainee should lift the pallet, tilt the mast back, and move forward or backward. In unloading, instruct the trainee to lower the pallet to the deck and tilt the mast to a vertical position so that the forks can be removed easily. After successfully completing the required training, the trainee may be issued a permit to operate the MHE. SUMMARY The Aviation Storekeeper supervisor must be able to plan and coordinate to create efficient supply operations. This chapter will help you do this. The terms and definitions we discussed will help you in supervising the storage or warehouse. We also discussed the methods and procedures for planning the storage and office layout to provide a safe and smooth flow of operations. The objectives in storing material is to conserve space, move rapidly, assure stability, and have a form of orderliness. We discussed the stacking height and arrangement of stacks to conserve storage space. We can assure speed in material movement by applying the storage techniques described in this chapter. We also discussed the different types and required number of MHE needed for moving materials by unit loads to save time and resources. We covered the stability of material in stems by using storage aids, such as pallets and racks, and the orderliness of material in storage that facilitates movement and inventory functions. We discussed the factors that help promote orderliness in the storage area; these include the stowage aids, required access, material identification, and the location system used. We discussed the methods and terms used in computing the measurements of storage spaces and the required number of MHE and pallets. This information should help you in overall storage space management and control and preparation of required reports. 2-29
