Side boom tractors and mobile equipment with a Rollover Protective Structure, or ROPS for short, need to contain seat belts which satisfy the requirements of the Society of Automotive Engineers, or SAE, Standard J386 JUN93, Operator Restraint System for Off-Road Work Machines. If whichever mobile machine has seat belts required by law, the operator and subsequent passengers must make sure they use the belts each time the motor vehicle is in motion or engaged in operation in view of the fact that this could cause the equipment to become unsteady and hence, unsafe.
If a seat belt or different driver restraint is required on a lift truck.

Whether the forklift is equipped along with a Rollover Protective Structure, the kind of forklift itself and the year the forklift was actually made all add to this determination. The manufacturer's directions and the requirements of the applicable standard are referenced in the Regulation.
With regards to powered industrial trucks, ANSI Standard ASME B56.1-1993 refers to an operator restraint device, enclosure or system. An operator restraint device, system, or enclosure is intended in order to aid the operator in lessening the chance of entrapment of the torso and/or head between the truck and the ground in the event of a tip over. The restraint device or system can comprise a seat belt, even if a seat belt is not essentially a part of such equipment or system.
