1.5 PERIODIC INSPECTIONS
Note:
It is necessary to service your forklift truck at periodic intervals, in order to keep it in good operating
condition and to prevent any problems from occurring.
Forklift trucks often play an important role in the production process and it is no exaggeration to
say that preventive maintenance of forklift trucks working in the facility is one of the key factors to
improvements in productivity.
(1) Daily inspection and service (pre-work inspection)
It is mandatory to inspect and service the specified items on the forklift trucks before starting the day’s work
or a new shift (“Article 47, Chapter 4 of the Road Trucking Vehicle Law” and “Article 151-25 of the Labor,
Safety and Sanitation Regulations”)
The items that must be inspected and serviced, and the procedures for doing so, are described in the TCM
Inspection Service Notes. This requirement should be made clear to the customer when the forklift truck is
delivered.
(2) Periodic service (monthly inspections)
In order to maintain the performance of a new truck and prevent any sudden problems from developing,
TCM specifies that the forklift truck must be serviced every 200 hours (or once every month).
In addition, it is mandatory to keep records of inspections and maintenance performed for three years
(“Article 151-22 and Article 151-23 of the Labor, Safety and Sanitation Regulations.”)
(3) Periodic service (annual inspections)
However excellent the construction of a forklift truck may be, its components and parts will inevitably
wear or deteriorate in the course of use. It is mandatory to perform annual maintenance and keep the records
of this maintenance for three years (“Article 151-21 and Article 151-23 of the Labor, Safety and Sanitation
Regulations.”)
Periodic service is required to maintain the performance and durability of the forklift truck, as well as to
ensure safe operation. It is recommended that periodic service should be performed without fail for your own
benefit, to say nothing of the “mandatory laws and regulations”.
Also, mandatory inspection and service of forklift trucks is required every 6 months for forklifts that have
a “Vehicle Inspection” sticker. The inspection and service records must be kept for one year. (“Articles 48 and
49 of the Road Trucking Vehicle Law”).
The details concerning items (1), (2) and (3) are described in the TCM Inspection Service Notes.
