Forklift Maintenance and Repair Services
To be able to safely transport materials at shipping docks, ports, construction sites and warehouses, hand trucks or pallet trucks and forklifts must be in good working condition. Your company's capital investment would serve you well in the long term if you have reliable forklift maintenance and repair services providing inspection, repair, overhaul and maintenance.
To provide forklift repair and maintenance services, companies have the option to train their staff in house. Particularly those companies that have fleets of forklifts in large operations. The manufacturer of the equipment normally offers excellent documentation, like for example repair manuals, on line guides, and CDs, to guide service engineers and mechanics. The correct set of tools and documentation is all you need for regular maintenance and for diagnosing and fixing minor problems. Common problems which require occasional addressing comprise those connected to fuel and emission systems, power systems, hydraulics, transmissions, diesel engines and brakes. If the problems are more complicated or need specialized knowledge, dealers or suppliers could normally be depended upon to give help from qualified service repair centers. Most repair centers are very responsive to calls and offer emergency 24-hour service and diagnostic testing.
Other forklift parts which may require repair and maintenance are the following: fluid levels, tires and axles, horns or alarms, lights, instruments and gauges, and carriage. Forklift attachments also need maintenance, such as sideshifters, roll and barrel clamps, rotators, man baskets and drum handlers.
