Precautions For The Use Of Mechanical Forklifts

Jul 19, 2026

The forklift manufacturing industry is located in the largest and most promising market in the world and has certain development potential. At the same time, a series of derived industries such as forklift maintenance have become an indispensable new industry nowadays. Then repair and maintenance can be divided into primary forklift maintenance and secondary forklift maintenance.
Then, when performing daily maintenance items, the following first-level maintenance work can be added.
1. Check whether the thermostat works normally.
2. Check whether the gear shifting of the transmission works normally.
3. Check the tightness of the fan belt.
4. Check whether the oil inlet filter screen of the diesel tank is blocked or damaged, and clean or replace the filter screen.
5. Check and adjust the valve clearance.
6. Check and adjust the gap between the brake disc and the brake drum of the hand and foot brakes.
7. Check whether the installation of the generator and starter motor is firm and whether the connection head is clean and firm, and check whether the carbon brush and commutator are worn.
8. Replace the engine oil in the oil pan, check whether the crankcase ventilation pipe is intact, and clean the oil filter and diesel filter element.
9. Check cylinder pressure or vacuum.
10. Check whether the wheel is firmly installed and whether the tire pressure meets the requirements, and remove the sundries embedded in the tread.
11. Parts and components are dismantled due to maintenance work, and a forklift road test must be carried out after reassembly.
(1) Braking performance at different levels: there should be no deviation or snaking. On steep slopes, after the hand brake is tightened, it can stop reliably.
(2) Listen to whether there is any abnormal sound when the engine is running under acceleration, deceleration, heavy load, or no load.
(3) After a certain mileage of the road test, check whether the brake, transmission, front axle housing, and gear pump are overheated.
(4) Whether the lifting speed of the fork frame is normal and whether there is vibration.
12. Check whether the multi-way reversing valve, lifting cylinder, tilting cylinder, steering cylinder, and gear pump are working normally.
