Forklift Maintenance and Repair Services
Forklifts and pallet trucks or hand trucks have to be in good working condition so as to move bulk supplies safely at ports, warehouses, shipping docks and construction sites. Your company's capital investment would serve you well in the long term if you have dependable forklift repair and maintenance services offering repair, inspection, maintenance and overhaul.
To provide forklift repair and maintenance services, companies have the choice to train their employees in house. Especially those companies which have fleets of forklifts in large operations. The manufacturer of the machine usually offers excellent documentation, such as online guides, CDs and repair manuals, to guide both mechanics and service engineers. The right documentation and set of tools are all you need for diagnosing and fixing minor issues and for regular maintenance. Common issues which need occasional addressing consist of those related to power systems, fuel and emission systems, transmissions, hydraulics, brakes and diesel engines. If the problems require specialized knowledge or are more complicated, suppliers or dealers can often be depended upon to offer help from qualified service repair centers. Most repair centers are very responsive to calls and offer emergency 24-hour service and diagnostic testing.
Other aspects of forklifts which may require maintenance and repair consist of fluid levels, axles and tires, lights, horns or alarms, instruments and gauges, and carriage. Forklift attachments also need maintenance, such as sideshifters, roll and barrel clamps, rotators, drum handlers and man baskets.
