3 Servicing and inspection
Thorough and expert servicing is one of the most important preconditions for safe
operation of the fork lift truck. The neglect of regular servicing intervals can lead to
fork lift truck failure and constitutes a potential hazard to personnel and equipment.
m
The indicated servicing intervals are based on single-shift operation under normal
operating conditions. For applications in dusty environments, or involving large tem-
perature fluctuations or multiple-shift operation, the servicing intervals must be shor-
tened accordingly.
The following servicing checklist indicates the operations to be performed and the re-
spective intervals to be observed. The servicing intervals are defined as follows:
W1 = every 50 operating hours, but at least once per week
M3 = every 500 operating hours, but at least every 3 months
M6 = every 1000 operating hours, but at least every 6 months
M12 = every 2000 operating hours, but at least every 12 months
A
The W1 maintenance intervals must be carried out by the operator / customer.
In the running-in phase of the truck, the following additional operations have to be car-
ried out:
After the first 50 - 100 hours of operation, at least after 2 months:
– Tighten pole screws of battery and check condition of the cell connectors.
– Perform visual inspection of the electronic and mechanic components.
– Check lift chains for equal tension.
– Check arresting and limitation of the fork tines.
– Check transmission for leakages.
– Check screw connections and mechanical safety retentions for tight fit.
– Check the wheel nuts for security and retighten, if required.
– Change all hydraulic oil filters.
– Check the hydraulic connections for leakages and retighten, if required.
– Check glide pieces at mast and adjust, if necessary.
