What are the forklift maintenance in summer?

1. External maintenance of forklift

It rains a lot in summer. If there are obvious scratches on the forklift, it is necessary to repair the paint in time to avoid moisture and corrosion. Due to rain acid corrosion in summer and direct sunlight in summer, the paint on the vehicle body will inevitably be oxidized. It is better to clean and repair the surface of the forklift.

2. Tire maintenance

In the safe operation of the forklift, the tire is the most important part. In summer, the tire pressure should be checked frequently, and the pressure should not be too high. Otherwise, there is a risk of explosion.

3. Battery maintenance

The connection of forklift battery is the most likely place to have problems. During inspection, if oxide is found at the connection, it must be removed. These green oxides will cause insufficient power of the engine and may also cause the battery to be scrapped.

4. Air conditioning maintenance

If your forklift has an air conditioner, the high load operation of the air conditioner in summer will easily cause the condenser to rust and shorten the service life of the air conditioner. Therefore, it is necessary to regularly check the state of the air conditioner.

5. Maintenance of brake system

In summer, the weather is changeable, and it is easy to cause expansion and deformation of forklift body parts. It is necessary to frequently check whether there is any problem with braking.

6. Maintenance of engine

Check the engine oil, brake oil and antifreeze regularly.

7. Chassis maintenance

Most of the time, the car owners are quite careless about the bottom of the car. When oil leakage and deformation are found, the bottom has become rusty. Therefore, we should regularly check the condition of the bottom.
