Cleaning the Forklift
Cleaning depends on the type of use and the
workplace. Should the truck come into contact
with highly aggressive elements such as salt
water, fertilizers, chemical products, cement,
etc., it should be cleaned as carefully as
possible after every work cycle. It is preferable
to use cold compressed air and detergents.
Use water-dampened rags to clean the parts
of the body.
CAUTION
Do not clean the truck with direct jets of water; DO
NOT use solvents and petrols that could damage
parts of the truck.
Cleaning the lift chains
WARNING
There is a risk of accident!
Load chains are safety components.
The use of cold/chemical cleaning agents or fluids
that are corrosive or contain acid or chlorine can
damage the chains and is therefore prohibited.
– Follow the manufacturer’s guidelines before
using a cleaning agent.
– Place a collection vessel under the lift mast.
– Clean with paraffin derivatives, such as
benzine.
– If using a steam jet, do not use any addi-
tional cleaning agents.
– Remove any water in the chain links with
compressed air immediately after cleaning.
– As soon as the chain is dry, spray with
appropriate chain spray.
For chain spray specifications, see the section
"Supply table" in chapter 6.
ENVIRONMENT NOTE
Dispose of fluid that has been spilled or col-
lected in the collection vessel in an environ-
mentally-friendly manner. Follow applicable
current regulations
