Nearly all of the time, companies would spend lots of money to purchase their lift trucks. It is essential, therefore to take proper care of your machinery to protect your investment into the long run. It is a great idea to know the procedures that are undertaken during maintaining and taking care of this equipment.

By starting up the forklift and listening carefully how it works is among the best ways to tell how good the engine is running. Like for instance, if there are any knocks or misses, the machine is faulty and this should raise some concerns. What's more listen closely for any squealing noise that come from the belts as these sounds will provide you with a wealth of information.

When carrying out maintenance, several of the main components you will need to pay attention to comprise the horn, safety warning devices, gauges, the overhead guard and the lights. Any burnt out light bulbs or faulty components must be replaced as soon as they are noticed. It is also essential to check the wiring.

The battery compartment terminals must be cleaned after the above parts have been checked thoroughly. If the terminals are not clean, be sure to clean them well. Every cell of the battery should be checked so as to make certain that the fill level is topped up to the regulated amount.

The next step is to drain all of the oil out of the equipment and then change the filters. The hydraulic filter, the transmission filter and the fuel filters must be regularly replaced. Prior to fitting them, be sure to write the date on the new filters by utilizing a permanent marker in order to keep track.

When the oil change is carried out and the filters have been replaced, a visual inspection of the drive axle has to be carried out. If there is a grease fitting on the axle make sure to apply some grease. Inspect the belts on the engine for any cracks or frays. If you find any, fix the problem accordingly. Afterwards, check every other component of the machinery like the wheels. If any kind of issue or fault is detected, be certain to deal with it immediately so as to make certain the machinery is running at its safest and optimum levels.
