Forklift maintenance can not only effectively extend the life of the counterbalance diesel forklift, but also ensure safe work. It can keep your forklift in the best working condition at all times. Let me share with you the top ten maintenance methods that can effectively extend the service life of forklifts. I hope it will be helpful to everyone.
1. Reduce impact damage
In aisles that are too narrow, it is important to arrange for well-trained forklift drivers to work in this section, and pay attention to vibration alarms and turn indicators to avoid hitting and injuring people.
2. Provide professional training for forklift operators
Teach them safety knowledge, which can reduce the damage rate to the forklift itself and the goods, and also greatly reduce the forklift failure rate.
3. Schedule preventive maintenance
It is best to develop a maintenance plan and perform regular maintenance on the 3 ton forklift. In the long run, developing maintenance plans and implementing them can save a lot of money. This can prevent major component failures, while also eliminating many expensive repair costs and extending your service life. Forklift life.
4. Develop a strict forklift management system
When the forklift is not suitable for use, please remove the key to avoid unnecessary damage caused by mis operation by other non-operators. It is necessary to tell the operator that during the forklift process, for some relatively narrow aisles, they must first get off the vehicle and measure the width of the aisle to estimate whether the forklift and goods can pass safely.
5. Replace tires that are prone to wear
This is work that must be done, just like a sports car. Due to full load work, tire wear is very serious, so a sports car must have better tires during a race so that it can continue to race. Forklifts also use tires, and tire wear Excessive load or blockage will make the forklift unstable during work and produce huge vibrations, which will cause great harm to the electrical and hydraulic systems.
6. Keep the working environment of the forklift clean and pay attention to the cleaning of the forklift itself.
In environments where forklifts work, such as warehouses and production workshops, the floor of the forklift workplace must be cleaned frequently. You may even consider using plastic pallets or metal pallets instead of wooden pallets.
7. Add hydraulic oil and lubricating oil in time
Forklift machinery requires a lot of maintenance, and insufficient hydraulic oil will cause the forklift to be unable to reach its rated height and rated load, which will also affect work efficiency.
8. Operate the forklift according to the forklift operating manual
Do not mishandle the machine. Mishandling may damage the forklift in the slightest or cause a forklift accident in the worst case.
9. After working every day, take half an hour or an hour to listen to the "sound" of the forklift
Since the forklift is often working at full load, in order to ensure that it can work normally the next day, please listen to the working sound of the forklift to ensure whether it is normal and whether it can be analyzed and used tomorrow.
10. Forklift battery maintenance is very important
Nowadays, some batteries are lead-acid batteries, and most batteries still need maintenance. You should always check whether the distilled water in the forklift is sufficient. Pay attention when charging. Although most rechargeable batteries are smart charging, they still cannot be plugged in for a long time. Otherwise, the charger may be damaged.
