After the forklift has been running for 500 hours, routine maintenance is required. The efficiency, life and safety of
the forklift depends on the routine maintenance.
For forklift maintenance, replacement spare parts should be provided by our company to ensure quality. It is
recommended to contact Kelvin Engineering Ltd or the company's after-sales service department. So that your
forklift can operate more safely and economically.
1. Maintenance Safety Rule
Maintenance work can only be conducted by an authorized, fully qualified engineer.
(1) Keep the maintenance site clean and hygienic.
(2) During maintenance, do not carry loose objects or valuables on your body.
Note!
When repairing the electrical system of a forklift, if metal contacts the energized electronic components, it may
cause a short circuit or burn. So, please take off your watch, earrings, or other accessories.
(3) Before the forklift is repaired, unplug the power socket, and disconnect the power supply.
(4) Before opening the left and right box covers or the electrical system, turn off the key switch of the forklift.
(5) Before checking the hydraulic system, the fork should be lowered to release the system pressure.
(6) When checking the oil leakage of the forklift body, please wipe it with paper or cardboard, and do not touch it
directly with your hands. To avoid burns.
(7) Please note that the oil temperature in the transmission or hydraulic system may be high. The forklift should be
cooled first, and then the gear oil or hydraulic oil should be replaced to prevent high oil temperature from causing
combustion.
(8) The hydraulic system should be filled with new clean hydraulic oil that meets the requirements.
Note!
If the hydraulic oil is not clean, it will affect the precision hydraulic components and reduce the capacity of the entire
hydraulic system or even collapse.
If varied brands of hydraulic oil are used, it will damage the hydraulic components and affect the system capability.
Therefore, when adding or replacing hydraulic oil, pay attention to the use of uniform grades.
(9) Please abide by relevant laws and regulations, protect the environment, store and discharge oil in accordance
with regulations, and do not discharge it into the sewer pipe.
(10) When welding the forklift body, disconnect the battery power supply. Because the welding current may enter
the battery during welding, to avoid this kind of situation, please cut off the battery.
(11) When working under the forklift, the forklift should be supported by the bracket.
Warning!
Improper support may cause the forklift to tip over and injure people. If the forklift does not have lifting equipment
or support protection, it is forbidden to work under the forklift.
