How to Maintain Your Forklift Accessories and Parts

A forklift’s accessories, parts, and components are
in a constant state of motion. This motion creates a “wear and tear” effect on
forklifts which hinders peak performance. Some of the parts that can be effected
include batteries, attachments, chargers, and clamps. Companies know that a
truck with increased downtime is a detriment to not only their productivity but
their company as a whole. Proper
maintenance is the proper way to deal with these effects of wear and tear.

BENEFITS
OF REGULAR MAINTENANCE ON FORKLIFTS CAN LEAD TO:

  • Maintaining
    a higher resale value.
  • Improving
    performance for the truck’s components, accessories, and attachments.
  • Cost
    reductions by finding smaller problems which could potentially lead to bigger
    problems in the future.
  • A
    safer working environment for the truck operators and for the entire facility
    as a whole.
  • More
    up-time for the truck, which reduces the cost over time.


NEGLIGENCE
OF PROPER MAINTENANCE ON FORKLIFTS CAN LEAD TO:

  • More
    expense in the long run due to components, accessories, and attachments needing
    to be replaced at a more frequent rate.
  • An
    unsafe work environment.
  • Increased
    downtime the truck will have to operate, reducing its longevity.
  • Reduced
    performance for the truck.
  • Decreased
    productivity.
  • Forklifts
    running poorly.
  • Increased
    emissions.
