However, if you are hiring a fork lift for a lengthy period, are looking to buy a new or used one from us or are even just hiring for a short while, there are some easy procedures to follow to ensure your fork lift keeps running at its best and remains in the condition it was in when you first received it from us. A few tips to help you look after your fork lift are:
Trained Operators
One of the most important factors to the smooth running of a fork lift is the person who is actually operating it, as a trained driver is one that is safe, careful and will be able spot any problem as soon as it arises.
Regularly Check the Tyres
Tyres are the only suspension on a fork lift, so letting them wear down excessively could also result in drive-train wear, mast bearing wear or an accelerated wheel bearing – all of which are much more costly to repair than the expense of new tyres.
Keep the Machine Clean
Quite an obvious tip, but one many might neglect in a busy working environment. Whether you’re using a fork lift on a muddy reclamation yard Peterborough or a seemingly clean warehouse, your fork lift will still require a regular cleaning to ensure the smooth running of all components.
