He didn 't see the column because the mast was blocking it at first but knew it was there and when he realized he was close to it he tried to slam on the brakes. He hit one of the forks on pole [REDACTED]. The lift is being sent in to get inspected because the associate thought that the brakes or steering may have not been working correctly.
