IMPORTANT:
Only trained and authorized personnel are allowed to service forks Other maintenance procedures are the
sole responsibility of the purchaser.
IMPORTANT:
To prevent weighing inaccuracies, the end user is responsible to check accuracy on a regular basis at
intervals that best fit their application and requirements. Development of a periodic schedule will prevent faulty readings.
Cascade recommends a
minimum
interval of every 12 months or 2000 hours, whichever comes first.
1000-Hour Maintenance
Every time the lift truck is serviced or every 1000 hours
of truck operation, whichever comes first, complete the
following maintenance procedures:
• Tighten fork shoe nut to a torque of 82 ft.-lbs. (111 Nm).
If necessary, replace the cover spool, fork shoe
capscrews and nuts.
Daily Inspection
Prior to each shift of truck operation, complete the following
procedures:
• Inspect the bottom of the forks for debris wedged
between the fork and the fork shoe. Remove any debris
found.
• Check for pinched wires at bottom of battery holders.
• When the battery packs are changed, inspect the
battery holders for damage and debris. Remove any
debris found. Verify that the capscrews are tight and
contact tabs are not damaged or bent. If required,
tighten contact point capscrews.
As required, use a mild cleanser and wipe down
the forks with a towel. Rinse the fork with a
non-pressurized stream of water.
